Most women struggle to look beautiful and stay within a budget. Women want to look their best, but want to do so without having to pay high prices for beauty products and services. While it seems that there aren't many quick fixes for beauty, there are ways to go about looking great for less. Here are a few ways you can save money in every area of your personal appearance.

Hair

Before you dismiss the concept of getting your hair cut at a beauty school think about it for a moment. There are dozens of students there who are learning and are eager to take care of you and do well. A seasoned hair dresser may determine that they understand what it is best for your hair and make little changes you might not have approved of. A student will listen to you and do their best to give you the hairstyle you requested. When you factor that in with the saving you can get, you would be foolish not to give it a try.

Clothes

Get familiar with being a clearance shopper. Every department store puts their clothes on clearance at some point. Clothes are not like expensive chocolates. Clothes are often sold at a discount. Heading to the clearance rack, especially when the clothes are about to become out of season, is a great way to find great value for a little bit of money. The more reasonable the store, the more clothes you can get for your money.

Makeup

It's hard to match the quality of good makeup with cheaper brands, but a good way to try is at the cosmetic counter. There you can ask a consultant to match the color of makeup that is right for you. Once you have that knowledge you can begin to shop for a similar color of makeup that is on sale.
