Five Great Ways to Save On Beauty Products

Join a Beauty Club

There are many websites and retailers that allow you to purchase a sort of “beauty subscription,” where you pay a certain fee each month, or membership due, and in exchange you will receive a gift in the mail. Some clubs send a whole box full of goodies each month, filled with things like valuable beauty coupons, cosmetics, nail polishes, hair care products, skincare products, and more.

Many of these beauty clubs cost as little as ten dollars a month, and it is definitely worth it. It can make checking the mail once a month a lot like Christmas, because you never know what you’re going to get, and you always get way more than your money’s worth.

Shop Online

Shopping for beauty products online can save you as much as 60 percent on some websites. This opens up a whole new world of what brands you can and can’t realistically afford, as opposed to department store prices. By shopping online, there is such a large and affordable selection that you are guaranteed to find the products that are exactly right for you at a price that won’t break the bank. Another benefit to shopping online is that many websites allow you to build up points for discounts, or run promotions where they give you codes to enter at checkout to save money.

Buy at Christmas

Christmas is supposed to be a time of giving, but what’s wrong with spoiling yourself a little, too, when it's such a great time to get beauty products because of all the fantastic sales. Shampoo and conditioner sets, fragrance sets, cosmetics sets: These are just some of the gift sets you may find deals on during Christmas time. During the rest of the year, you would have to purchase these items separately, but in the holiday season, you can find them packaged together for one low price.

Sign up for Free Samples

There are so many websites where you can find free samples online, or in many cases, you can sign up for beauty freebies on the home page of a specific product brand. By joining their mailing list, you won’t just get free samples, but you may get plenty of valuable beauty coupons for their products as well. Another good place to get coupons, and in some cases, free samples, is in beauty magazines.

Buy in Bulk

Buying in bulk is a great way to save money on a beauty product, but make sure it is a product that you love, so you aren’t just stuck with it. While buying in bulk may cost you more at the time, it saves you money in the long run because you are usually paying less for more. Another great thing about buying a lot of beauty products at once is that many retailers offer a bonus gift or percentage off if you spend more than a certain amount.
