Women everywhere are searching for tips to reduce their beauty overhead. Raging Rouge will be dedicating a series of posts to "Bargain Beauty", pointing fellow makeup addicts into directions that will save them money without compromising results!
My first budget-busting suggestion? Remember there is always strength in numbers! MAC super-rich pigment comes in generously sized jars. Small amounts of pigment are needed for each use, so a single jar lasts forever. Rather than buy only one shade, gather your three best girlfriends, and hit your local MAC counter. Each of you should select one shade of pigment, and also buy four travel jars (click HERE to view the version sold by MAC). Split up the pigment between yourselves using a digital kitchen scale. For a total of only $25.50, you'll now have a collection of four MAC pigments to use!
The gorgeous shade of purple pictured, Circa Plum, is from the Rose Romance collection. It's one of my favorite season-less bursts of color, and a shade you may want to consider adding to your arsenal when you use this advice!
Retail price per pigment is $19.50. MAC travel jars are $6.
