The post of not using makeup made me think about how to do frugal makeup. I adore makeup as a craft and artform and love to do it occasionally. Both beaty makeup and special effects makeup
(I do not think makeup should be something people should be expected to wear at work with the exception for example actors that might need makeup for a part)
My personal frugal tip is that if you only use makeup occasionally the best way to do it is to have dry products as far as possible.
Like cake mascara and cake eyeliner (you add water like you would with watercolors when you use then), and powder eyeshadow, powder foundations etc.
This can last an hygienic way for decades (no fat or moisture means no bacterial growth).
This goes for special effects makeup as well. Go for alcohol activated makeup or water based makeup.
What is some more tips?
