As a whole, this country spends over $5 billion dollars on cosmetics and beauty supplies. As of April 13th, 2006, the number being bandied around was $8.2 billion, but who’se counting that extra billion or three?
I can’t talk about my spending on cosmetics, when I have to talk about skin care products first. I’m slowly coming out of the dreaded Equate cycle and realizing that quality products lead to a quality face. Therefore, my spending on skin care and cosmetics is growing steadily. My face approves.
I spend roughly $30 a month of skin care and cosmetics - if there’s a lipstick I like, I grab it. I usually test out different types of foundation. Also, it’s nice to replace lipstick that’s been contaminated, or eyeshadow that just doesn’t do the job anymore.
So, all of this aside - how much do you spend on cosmetics? It can be $X a month, $X a year, $X a day…even $X an hour, but I’ll wonder what else you do with your time. Let me know!

I would estimate that I spend 5 or 7 dollars a month on comestics(lol).I may be a tube of lipstick every now and then, but love wearing lip gloss.

I spend about $30 a month on high quality, botanically-based skin care that I purchase wholesale through Arbonne. It works and it’s worth it.
