Celebrate Makeup: The best makeup discounted

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at St Olaf chapter.

As you may have noticed, makeup is not cheap in general and it rarely – if ever – goes on sale. Especially the best makeup that offers intensity and high definition, if that is what you are looking for.

So, where can you find some top-notch, on-sale makeup besides the sparse sale section on Sephora or beauty.com?

Here are a few of my favorite websites to check out:

1. http://www.softsurroundingsoutlet.com/Beauty_&_Well_Being/Cosmetics/
This website has some great organic makeup brands; one of them is Becca from Australia which is famous for its foundation line.

2. http://www.allcosmeticswholesale.com/
At this site you can find lots of cheap Revlon, YSL, M.A.C, Bobbi Brown and Dior! Still, be careful about the date, they may not be fresh!  

3. http://beautyticket.com/

Here you can find Smashbox,YSL and Benefit, but also keep an eye on the date. Sometimes they give 20% off, so don’t miss the deal!

4. http://www.beautycrunch.com
A fabulous website to check out if you are a fan of Stila. Those sales in Sephora cannot complete with this. You can get one 4-pack eye-shadow for $10! If you want to try out some qualified new shades, you are gonna love it! Stila is a second-line-brand, but definitely better than Revlon or Maybelline. Also you can find some wonderful products from too-faced! You can buy a whole set of makeup in less than $50 here!

5. http://www.beautyhabit.com/
This website has the most recent Paul & Joe limited edition. Also they have many organic makeups and cosmetics. Besides the normal sale section like all the other makeup websites have, this has everything 20% off twice a year.

Happy bargain-shopping!
