Cosmetics are a huge part of our lives. Whether we wear it once or twice a day or any at all, in our lifetime, cosmetics have proved to be the ultimate way of the future. As scientifically safe as cosmetics are, they provide an enhancement that is rather undefined. It’s a well known fact that the vast majority of status quo society is looking to save more, rather than spend. Not everyone can afford upscale brands such as Dior, Afshar Beauty, Chanel, Anna Sui, Taysha Smith Valez, Lancome, Make Up For Ever, NARS, Tarte, Illamasqua, Bobbi Brown, and MAC; making their quest to finding good cosmetics, for an affordable price very hard, as a result.
Popular commercial cosmetic brands such as Loreal, Cover Girl, Maybelline, Revlon, and Max Factor provide an array of products that are as universal as the individual that uses them on a daily basis. These brands are very affordable, however; they are not the cheapest cosmetics to those looking to save even more. I have decided to take it a step further, so I have narrowed it down to the top 20 cheapest cosmetic brands, I personally had the opportunity to come across.
1.) E.L.F. It’s not everyday you come across a website that asks for only $1 for the majority of their products, plus a reasonable shipping charge. In the case of E.L.F. that is exactly what this cheap beauty brand does. What makes E.L.F. an amazingly fluent, yet cheap beauty brand is the fact that the products are mixed with raw simplicity and eclecticism, making them as universal as the individual that wears them. Are you intrigued? Simply visit: E.L.F. today!
2.) WILD AND CRAZY It is not every day that you can find a brand of makeup that works modestly that is relatively cheap, as a result. Available at Cherry Culture, Wild and Crazy proves why it is one of the cheapest makeup brands in the world today.

3.) AMUSE A friend of mine told me she started using Amuse cosmetics and although she was impressed with their universalism and simplicity, she found herself addicted to their individual products. Stating “they exceed their worth, by far”. The products range from Amuse “brush on eyeshadow” to Amuse “glitter mascara”. They also have an 84 eyeshadow pallet for about $15, which makes them more affordable than the average makeup. Amuse cosmetics are available at Cherry Culture. Are you interested in knowing more?

5.) WET ‘N WILD When I was a little girl and I was moderately poor due to my parent’s divorce, I use to walk to the store and look at the Wet ‘n Wild cosmetics display. Although it wasn’t often, I managed to scrounge up $.99 to purchase a cute, yet visible lipstick. As time proceeded, I realize that after 17 years, at the mere age of 10 up until present, that Wet ‘n Wild truly is one of the finest, credible, cheap brands in the world and still continues to make a mark in the business industry, as a result. For Wet ‘n Wild to still exist, while remaining true to their ethic truly proves why they are number 5 in top best beauty brands. Want to know more? Simply visit: Wet n Wild right now.
6.) MILANI One night, a friend and I got into a very rational, yet deep discussion about cosmetics. She told me that she was serious about Milani cosmetics and that they give some of the elite brands a run for their money. Although, I wasn’t convinced, I decided to purchase a lip pencil from Walgreens, which only came to a little over $1 and when I used it, I realized how right she actually was.

It comes in blue, pink, purple, and green and it only costs $2.99. Doesn’t that sound amazing? Blah Blah cosmetics are available at Cherry Culture.

Most of these “cheap” makeup brands are supported by an actual entity, that provides a website or some medium, that allows you to purchase them directly. However; some of them are not and are only available at select stores. You can most likely find an array of cheap products using the eBay medium, however; if you are looking for professional cosmetics or any on an upscale wavelength, it is important to take caution before purchasing.
You may also be able to find an array of affordable brands by doing, what is often referred to as “swaps” which is like a makeup trade. Most of the time, you can find stuff that has never been used, however; some people do tend to trade cosmetics they have used once. I, personally, have never done it, however; I have friends who have and have said nothing, but wonderful things about it.
