In a depleted economy such as ours, embracing quality drugstore products can go a long way toward stretching that dollar.
In fact, many products that cost a few dollars at a clip are as good as the high-end brands, and are ideal if you want to experiment with new shades and looks. Some great such lines to get acquainted with are Tropez Beauty and Black Radiance.
Three readers will win a fabulous gift basket of these two brands that includes: Tropez Creme To Powder Foundation, Tropez Flirty Eyelashes, Tropez Irresistable Illuminator, Black Radiance Perfect Tone Lip Color, Black Radiance Fine Line Liquid Eyeliner, and Eyeshadow Quartet (Learn more details about these items at either of the links ab0ve.) This is a great one-stop collection for looking your most beautiful at all your holiday parties!
EDIT: To enter, please share your best-ever discount beauty find. Three winners will be chosen at random from entries. Deadline to enter is November 26. Good luck!

L’Oreal’s H.I.P. line is a real find. It’s cheap and better than M.A.C. in my opinion. Blasphemy I know! Also anything by Max Factor for the same reason.
I found some tan in a can on the clearance shelf at Walgreens today! Great price and a name brand.
i got like $200 worth of make-up for free!
Find lots of deals at walgreens in their clearance section.
My best beauty discount is to buy from Target, Walmart or even Kmart end of the year cosmetics clearance sale or even buy discount beauty by buying it in Store Brand or flea market.
I once found the Max Factor foundation that I use at a Big Lots for $2.50. It normally sells for about $9.00. I bought all 14 bottles they had in stock of my shade. It lasted me 2 years.
My best-ever discount beauty find would definately be a coupon for a free foundation I received from the weekly paper sometime last year.
Thanks for great contest!
best beauty deal of late was sally hansen nail polishes for 29 cents each after coupon and sale price. Yes, I stocked up! Thanks
I found Oil of Olay Regenerist at Big Lots for 5.00, it is usually 17.00 - 20. i brought 5 and went back for more but they were out.
I could really use this. I’ve been looking for some new products.
$1 nail polish at the DollarTree. It works as well as any.
I have been able to find some good beauty buys at Deals Dollar store
Our Albertson’s grocery store was closing and all make-up was 75% off and I had coupons and bought a whole new kit for a few dollars.
I found some good beauty finds like nail polish at Big Lots
Good brand and exciting prize
I make my own tendskin. It is so much cheaper. I found the recipe online.
I love it when you head into Rite Aid or Walgreens and they have make up sales B.O.G.O.F or buy one get one half price. That’s the time I stock up on y favorites!
I got a case of Max Factor foundation for $10 on clearance at Walgreen’s.
I like to buy make up at the end of the season because the price is reduced so the new colors have room.
I read some good reviews about St Tropez.
Walgreens super saver beauty items.
I found a great name brand perfume mismarked at a local drug store. The manager let me have it at the marked price which was about 75% off. It made a great gift for my best friend.
Applying a lighter shade of lip gloss over my darker on my bottom lip creates a poughty look
Maybelline Great Lash was a great find.
i hope i win
The “free after rebate” from a local drug store for some anti aging cream was certainly a best “buy.”
Great sales at Walmart!
i really cant recall but i did win a nice beauty set once with soaps,lotions and many other things
When I was on college break, I worked at a discount store that had just received a huge shipment of goods from a store that had a fire. The only thing wrong with everything is that it had the scent of smoke on it…and maybe some soot. There were so many name brand beauty items for sale, I don’t think I saved any money for the next semester.
Vaseline is the cheapest make up remover.
There is brand of make up called wet and wild. There stuff is just a couple dollors and they have everything from lipstick, to eye liner to nail polish. And their stuff is not bad!
Brushes, I have discovered make-up brushes. I apply bronzer sparingly.
I found nail polish on sale for $2 at walmart that I had $2 off coupons for
When I go to Rite Aid and they have Maybelline mascara for BOGO. I use a $1 off coupon as well and it’s a steal.
I once had a handful of coupons for $5 off Revlon lipstick and they were on sale as buy one get one free for $6.49 so I ended up paying $.75 per lipstick!
I found some clearance makeup at walgreens.
My best deal was on Neutrogena foundation. It was on sale for 7.99, I had $5.00 coupon, and I used the CVS extra care bucks, so I basically got it for free!
My Best find was a beauty set reduced after Christmas one yr at Rite-Aid. rangrace(at)hotmail.com
A couple of years back I found my fav Cover Girl simply foundation in my shade at a store that carries overstock and damaged merchandise. The only thing wrong with them is that the tops of the cardboard packaging had been creased. They were marked only $1 each!
I save money by using monistat anti-chafing
gel as a primer under my foundation,Make up
lasts longer plus it fills in any scars.
There are many discount beauty finds located on Ebay. Search for the product you’re interested in and find the best price!
My best-ever discount beauty find was getting free samples of Estee Lauder makeup.
