If you need a bunch of artificial intervention to look "pretty," you probably weren't that pretty to begin with. Or, when you take the mask and fakeness off.

I spend more on a gym membership, or running shoes & workout things than I do on "beauty" things. I'd venture I look better without any makeup and going for a run, than some of these ladies who spend hundreds of dollars a month on hair and makeup.

Cover Girl makeup when it needs replacing. Olay moisturizer and BB cream, facial cleanser from the drugstore. I don't do manis or pedis, but I do paint my toenails weekly. So I don't spend much. I've always been low-maintenance.

Shampoo, I like kerastase which now CVS sells I wait until I get emailed a 20% off purchase cvs coupon and buy, so it's like $100 4 times a year
I use creme la mer at night, so $300 every other month. I use oil of olay with SPF for daytime, so that's like $50 a year.

My hormones went nuts after having children, and now I need laser hair removal on my face 4 times a year, $300 a pop.

Have you thought of trying threading for your eyebrows? so much cheaper and much easier on the sking.

On a monthly basis, I spend nothing on makeup, hair, nails or facials.

Once a year, during Clinique Bonus Time, I buy ONE thing, for $30 or whatever their minimum is, and then I get free stuff with that. I only use the mascara and lipsticks though.

I've never had a facial. In June I got a manicure and it was the first one in 2013 and 2014. I got a pedicure in June too. I usually get one pedicure once or twice a year.

I generally get one haircut each year at the Paul Mitchell academy, so it costs less than at a regular salon. Sometimes I skip a year or two.
