How to become a budget barbie?!


There is a saying in Chinese which literally translates to in English


" In the world there is no ugly woman, only lazy woman."


 

 
I definitely live by this quote!! Everyone is beautiful and unique in there own way, they only need to work and these strong points will naturally shine through! If you want to have beautiful healthy skin, you WILL have beautiful healthy skin. If you want long shiny locks, you WILL have long shiny locks. Just as long as you work for it there is nothing that is unachievable. These positive goals you want to achieve we're always in you, you just needed a bit of work to make it show, shine through (remember no pain, no GAIN ;))



 



Have you ever seen a celebrity with bad skin or dry damaged hair. This is all down to all the effort they put in. All this obviously come at a cost. So here on Budget Barbie I will be sharing my tips and tricks in helping you acheive this at low cost :p oh yeahhhh!!! Beauty doesn't have to come with a price, trust me!!!




In the meantime I'm gonna share 5 tips on deciding to buy a beauty product

1. Make sure you know exactly what you want- don't just shop around and decide on the spot if you need it or not.

2. When you know what type of product you want do research and look at reviews of the product, evaluate the pros and cons.

3. When you know the exact product look around in different shops to compare the price. This is usually easier done online but remember to check out less mainstream shops such as savers and home bargain they always treasure gems!!

4. eBay- usually the cheapest option online. Make sure its a reliable ebayer before considering. If your bidding always bid last minute. Set a budget in mind as the tension during popular items can get you out of hand. Set a timer 5 minutes before the ending time and bid on the last 15 seconds. Remember to refresh page as often as possible till the end time and bid £1 or so (depending on the item) more than minimal bid. Haha as you can tell I'm quite a eBay pro ;) you can only learn from the best eh?!

5. Sample size- quite often there are sample sizes on sale from eBay therefore you could test out the product before considering buying the full size product.

Hope these tips help in budgeting beauty splurges as I know you can get easily distracted with raved about products and ending up paying too much for them! Why pay more if you can pay less ;) that money saved can go on another splurge!!!
