The Price of Beauty is High! Women Spend an Outrageous Amount of Money AND Time on Makeup

If you feel like it takes forever to do your makeup, you're not wrong. I have permanent eyeliner AND fake lashes (most of the time) and STILL feel that I waste entirely too much time AND money on makeup. The actual amount though, is mind blowing. 

By going all natural you would save yourself TWO YEARS of life, TWO YEARS! The average woman is spending 722 days doing their makeup!

Just when I was starting to think I needed to splurge more on makeup as I age, I see this stat. We are spending on average of $20,000 on makeup over our lifetimes.

I tried finding a quick makeup tutorial, and I couldn't find one that didn't consist of about a million different products. Even to get a "natural look" is going to cost you. This video is probably the best one I could find, because she actually uses makeup you can find in everyday stores like Target or Walgreens. Enjoy!

Earlier this year, I did a series of makeover blogs, teaching you (and me) how to get several different looks. To see that series, click here.
