This is a Public Service Announcement from the Queen Khira Broadcasting Company to the women of the world: enough with the excuses already, after this post, it can no Longer be said that a perfectly beat face can only be achieved by spending a small fortune on beauty products. Stop suping yourselves up thinking you are somehow on somebody's a-list because you just purchased a Dior lipstick for $40.00; trust me, it definitely does not make you equal to any of the reality tv hauxs on the red carpet in Christian's latest couture creation! The first step is admitting you have a problem. You will need to consult the NA website for steps 2-12! With that being said, let me introduce you to your new best friend, I like to refer to it as the "Fake it Till You Make It", a flawless face for $5.00. Trust me, it rivals any Photo-ready routine I have come across, and the price CANNOT be beat. Until you have it like that, I'm talking stacks on stacks on stacks, don't let me catch you at the YSL counter looking at a doggone thing! It's a new year, a new you, save where you can but never sacrifice the quality of your overall look, all the legwork has been done for you! Please comment below and let me know how this routine worked out for you, and your favorite beauty cheapies that changed your makeup spending habits! Enjoy!! XOXO
