June 2004: I have added a page including some updates, my current makeup routine and favorite brands and products.

Just wanted to let my frugal friends know that I am no longer actively updating this site. This doesn't invalidate the information contained within, just keep it in mind as prices may have changed and some items may no longer be available.

I am now focusing my energy on my newest endeavor as a Face Painter.

The Frugal Face

Mission Statement:

To look absolutely gorgeous while spending as little money as possible on only quality make-up products that perform!

     We do this so we can either:
     a) Afford to indulge our lipstick or eyeshadow (or whatever!) collecting habit
     b) Afford to buy certain make-up items at the department stores
     c) Afford to pay the bills!

We accomplish our goal in several ways:

By learning to be more creative with our make-up,  we can get double-duty out of many products and adjust products to our liking. We won't have to buy as many products and fewer will end up in the trash or the bottom drawer. We can learn to custom mix our own "perfect" shades from very inexpensive products. By learning to be more creative with our make-up, we benefit in more ways than just saving money. We will  have more fun with our make-up and if you wish, turn it into a creative outlet. We will also be more satisfied with our make-up, feel better about our make-up expenditures, and feel more in control.

By discovering very inexpensive, but quality drugstore make-up products.

By  improving our skills and application techniques which affect the end results more than which products we use.
