Christian Dior Rouge Diorific Long War Lipstick in Big Bang Brown

This lipstick comes on your lips like a silk dress – smooth, glamorous yet light-weight. Dior says it is lightweight and I can definitely attest to this. I love this lipstick because it is one my mum has worn for years and I would always ask her why?? And her answer was simple: it stays on forever, it looks amazing and it feels amazing.

Guys let’s face it – you can’t get the beauty products that you love without having money. Now, the issue here is we can’t go broke spending money on beauty products. That’s not a way to live. I wouldn’t say I am frugal but I believe you need to plan and budget for your purchases even if you can buy the lipsticks today, I am not a financial advisor though so please make sure you also follow up on your own. I am going to cover how to buy the beauty products you love without going broke.

Make a list of products you want for the next 2 months

British women spend around £4,500 per year on their looks and beauty in general, according to research cited in Harper’s Bazaar UK magazine. That’s a lot of cash but it’s nothing new. Women around the world adore beauty products and buy them frequently. You should make a list of beauty products that you want to buy for the next 8 weeks. 2 months works because we all know the beauty industry moves quickly and there are always new releases, including the fact you may finish the product early. You don’t need to buy everything that comes out – just purchase the products that you are passionate about.
