Baby, times are hard!

Economic crisis…401k turned 101k…record forclosures…federal bailout!!!
What’s a Fashion-ista turned Recession-ista to do in these  trying  times???
Below I have compiled a list of great finds to help keep you GAW-JUS in these very ugly times…














16 measly dollars.  Here’s a great set if you’re new to brushes.  I love the pop up case that keeps  everything  neat and in its place…and its also good for travel!

Summer Safari Pop Up Brush Set (Original Price $45)  

What it is:
A travel case that pops open to reveal five essential brushes.

What else you need to know:
The set includes a blush/powder brush, a concealer/lip brush, an all-over eyeshadow brush, an eyeshadow detail brush, and an angled eyeliner/brow brush.
















25 bucks for a great little Marc Jacobs carrying case for your cosmetic essentials.

Daisy Marc Jacobs Pour Sephora Treasure Beauty Case
(Original Price $50)  

What it is:
A Daisy Marc Jacobs logo-embossed cosmetics traveling case.
















BROWN GIRL ALERT!
Napoleon Perdis makes one of my fav makeup sticks.  For the  ridiculously  low price of $9.75, this dream of a makeup stick can be yours.  But there’s a catch.  The only color left is “Look 8”, which is for very deep tones.  Think Alek Wek-ish.  If this is your complexion…cop this stick ASAP!

Foundation Stick (Original Price $39)  
Hypoallergenic double beauty duty base that gives minimum to maximum coverage for the ultimate complexion perfection. Sets to a matte finish. Perfect for everyday, special occasion, and photographic work. Doubles up as a concealer.  



















$5.50.  Great price for a high end eye shadow.  Few colors left so act quick!

Colour Disc Eyeshadow (Original Price $22)  
Colour Discs are richly pigmented discs of makeup in a vast range of colors – for eyes, cheeks or wherever you like! True to color when applied, the quality pigments produce the desired effect. Use Color Discs underneath Ultra Pearls or Loose Dusts to create a stronger, longer lasting intense application.
















BROWN GIRL ALERT AGAIN!!!
$12.50. Two great shades still available for medium to tones.  

China Doll Foundation (Original Price $50)  
A lightweight, long wearing luxe liquid formula that combines the benefits of a self-setting foundation and powder in one. Designed for ample playtime before setting to a soft-velvet finish that takes you from perfect to precious. Plus vitamins A, C, & E provide essential antioxidant, anti-aging protection.





















BROWN GIRL BONANZA!!!
Brown girls stand up!  For 4 lil dollars this foundation can be yours.  I’ve personally never tried Sephora foundation but at 4 bucks and given this crazy recession, I’d give it a try!

Powdered Liquid Foundation SPF 12 (Original Price $12 – $18)  
This unique fluid foundation goes on smooth and creamy and dries down to a smooth, long-lasting powdered finish on the skin. It’s oil free and contains a protective SPF 12.
