Drugstore Products You’ll Actually Love

Switching to drugstore versions of your favorite hair, skin, and make-up products is an easy way to budget for huge savings, without sacrificing the quality. A lot of big brand products earn their price for exactly that – the brand name. You can usually find pretty close equivalents of those pricier products at your local drugstore, at a much lower cost. When on a budget, it makes the most sense to get drugstore versions of products that you use the most, and subsequently have to replace the most. Save the splurges for fun treats that you won’t need to be continually restocking for your daily routine, which will inevitably lower your monthly expenses and increase your savings!

Make a list of products that you use on a daily or even weekly basis and try to swap them out for these alternatives – you’ll love them just as much as the fancy version and your wallet will thank you.
