The subtotal for this complete glam look is $73. So you still have budget left over to play around with!
Being on a budget doesn’t mean you have to compromise on your glam! As a student, I’ve had to find products that are affordable and perform just as well as highend options. After lots of trial and error, these are the ones I swear by. 💕
