College gals, it’s hard to spend $10 on drugstore lipstick. That $10 could be used on so many more important things, like a ton of sushi at Asian Bistro (especially on $2 tuesday; you could get 5 crunchy bistro rolls for $10) or you could add that $10 to your savings account because the holidays are fast approaching and you want to get your boyfriend or girlfriend a nice gift. So without this extra $10, how will you buy your dark lipstick for fall? Oh, there’s a way. An incredibly cheap way that is almost too good to be true! 

The cosmetic brand Wet N Wild, which can be found at Target (when is Milledgeville getting a Target?!), Walgreens, Rite Aid, Walmart, and CVS, sells this lipstick that is so cheap and so good that it’s almost unbelievable. It’s called Wet N Wild Silk Finish Lipstick and it’s priced (at most stores) at .99 cents. Yes, .99 cents. At Walmart, you can get it for .93 cents. That, ladies, is incredibly cheap. How can a lipstick be this cheap but work so well? Well, it has vitamin A&E, aloe vera, macadamia nut oil, and antioxidants in it, which is awesome. The color is super rich and feels silky and moisturizing on the lips and also lasts a really long time. There are 24 colors in the line and each one goes on as smoothly and as vibrantly as the next one. Here are a few swatches for your viewing pleasure:

And here is a YouTube review of the Silk Finish Lipstick:

Head on out to Walgreens, CVS, Rite Aid, or Walmart and purchase one of these lipsticks so you can see how awesome they are for yourself! You will not be disappointed.
