After seeing this on a blog this morning I was intrigued to see how much it costs me to 'put on my face' every day.
I have photographed the makeup that I use almost every day so I can get a realistic figure:
Avon MagiX Face Perfector: £10.50
Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Concealer: £4.19
Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation: £8.99
Miners B*Fabulous Loose Powder (Discontinued but I have one pot left): Was £4.99
Beauty UK Clear Mascara (worn under my other mascara):
£2.49
17 Peep Show Mascara in Black: £6.29
Avon Glimmerstick Eye Liner in Blackest Black: £6.00
Avon Eyeshadow Quad in Pink Sands: £8.50
Benefit Hervana Blush: £23.50
Avon Lip Liner in Pink Bouquet: £6.00
No 7 Lipstick in Divine: £10.00
Clarins Fix' Make-Up: £20.00
Total Cost that I estimated: £80.00
Actual Cost:
£111.45 - for just 12 products???
I was a little bit out then! Oops ...
I would love to know how much this works out per wear but I obviously couldn't work that out unless I counted each time I used a product ... maybe in future I will!
Wow, that's expensive! I am too scared to do mine haha xxx
ReplyDeleteI was like that to start with but then curiosity got the better of me :p xx
DeleteThat's a really cool idea! I would be really curious to see a daily cost!

Hiya! Thanks for following :D
DeleteI was going to add my cleanser, toner and moisturiser on but I knew it was going to be much higher if I did so I left it off xx
Love your blog! I usually use make-up from the brand E.L.F. which prices ranges from $1-$5 for everyday stuff and $25 for special collections. But other than that I LOVE to splurge LOL. I am your newest blog fan and member! Check out my blog and follow back if you like it.

Thank you :D
DeleteI will be sure to stop by your blog x
I keep telling myself I have to ddo this too but I keep forgetting. :) But wow that's a lot!
ReplyDeleteI know! I'm hoping that it will only work out at something like one pound a day or something though :p x
Deleteahh cool! I might look at my everyday makeup cost! cool post! quite a lot though .. I need to se mine to compare!
ReplyDeleteLet me know if you do it! I do feel that I get lots of use out of my products. I don't seem to buy many that I don't like and even if I'm not keen on something I try and use it all up (unless of course, it's bad)x
DeleteThat's quite a lot but when I think about it mines probably not far out,might do one of these posts soon :D

It is but I like to think we're worth it ;)
Deletehaha cool post... dont want do this with my products... think I spent around 300 euros on my beauy.... hmm makes me think now :) great blog! x Marina
ReplyDeleteAww bless ya! It does come as a bit of a shock doesn't it? I'm definitely going to do a 'cost per wear' when I get any new products. Mind you, think I should use everything else up before I even think of buying anything new!x
DeleteI love this post, I'm tempted to do it but dread to think what the total would be. I also have Hervana picked it up last week :)

Hervana worked out as a good purchase for me as I now use it almost everyday. I think I've used an older blusher once since I bought it so well worth it xx
