Favorite Beauty Bargains

I love luxury. There's nothing like opening up a jar of an uber-expensive moisturizer to make you feel pampered and decadent. But occasionally, you just need something that does the job, without any hype and without a high price tag. I've found a few items that make my list:
Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser, $8: This does the job of removing makeup and impurities, without drying or irritating skin.
Blistex Clear Advance SPF30, $2.19: This is designed for men, but it's perfect for women! It has a non-shiny finish, so you can use it as a base for lipstick. It tastes great and lasts a long time. Best of all, it has sunscreen!
Revlon Skinlights Instant Skin Brightener SPF15, $11: This is a great highlighting cream that's on par with the department store line, but at a much lower price!
Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry Touch Sunblock, $10: I love this sunblock. It's got a lightweight, matte finish, great protection, and it's virtually undetectable on skin!
John Frieda Straight Ahead Style Activating Daily Shampoo and Conditioner, $6 each: Even though I wear my hair curly, I love this shampoo and conditioner for their ability to make hair silky, smooth, and frizz-free!
Rose Milk Skincare Lotion, $10: This old standby is back, and it really takes me back to my childhood. It's got a soft, rose scent that makes me feel nostalgic, and it does the job on dry skin.
