How Much Is My 'Face' Worth



Inspired by the Lizzie from Peppermint and Panda Eyes and Franzi from Franzizzy I've decided on
doing the, "How much is my 'face' worth" blog post. What this is, is an add up of all the products you would wear on a daily basis (your staples go-to face) to really see, how much do we spend on makeup - Whilst writing this I'm actually pretty nervy to see the outcome...

Face

1. Nars Sheer Glow Foundation £32

2. Rimmel Stay Matte Powder £3.99

3. Mac Mineralize Skinfinish, Soft & Gentle £24

4. Sleek Contour Kit £6.49

5. Clinique Cheek Pop £17

6. Bourjois Delice de Poudre Bronzing Powder £7.99


Lips

6. Mac Cremesheen Lipstick in Fan Fare £11


Eyes

7. Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara £19

8. Rimmel Exaggerate Smoke n' Shine eyeliner £5.29

9. Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette £28


Total Face Value (har har pun): £ 155.76

I have to say I'm pretty shocked that I spend this much on just my everyday makeup products...it just goes to show you what an awful lot of money a hobby and obsession can cost you!


Let me know if you've done a "how much is my 'face' worth" blog post - I would love to give it a read!

    1. It's actually insane but has given me more incentive to start wearing mine more rather than purchasing more new products! xx

  7. I've wanted to do such a post but I thought 'It must be a lot but No I don't wanna know how much!' XD
    However it's always interesting to read others though, really enjoyed this post :)

  8. You only live once! I always go shopping with this in my mind. It's funny how we can't resist buying so many products

    1. That's the best attitude and my excuse too! I just have too much love for overly pretty packaging and hyped goods! xx

  9. I find these posts so interesting I might have to do one myself one day - it is amazing the amount it costs for a hobby haha, but all worth it if its what you love!

  10. This is such a cool way of setting it out! It can sound like so much, but I love that majority of the time these makeup products last for a long time :) (Way to make ourselves feel better, right?) :P
