Here are a few ideas for both guys and gals to save money and look great. ![beauty.jpg](https://info.centuryss.com/hs-fs/hubfs/beauty.jpg?width=354&name=beauty.jpg) **Prioritize Your Spending.** Examine your beauty or grooming routine and find areas you can cut back on. For example, do you really need those expensive salon conditioning treatments? Is that pricey aftershave lotion really necessary? Saving money on one item might free up your budget enough so you can enjoy your favorite “luxury” without worry. **Try Dollar Stores or Generic Brands for Basics.** Items like combs, cotton balls, hand sanitizer, cotton swabs, makeup remover pads and hair clips can be purchased at dollar stores for 30-40% less. Why pay more somewhere else? **It’s In The Way That You Use It.** Sunscreen is one beauty item that some people tend to go overboard with. If you are using sunscreen on your face during your outdoor activity, the Skin Cancer Foundation recommends only a teaspoon of SPF 30 or higher applied every two hours. If using sunscreen on your body, you only need to use a shot glass full of lotion every few hours. **Double Duty.** Did you know that your favorite hair conditioner can also be used in place of shaving cream? > ** DIY Dry Shampoo** > > By Wellness Mama > > For most hair types, washing every other day is fine.
