Sometimes you can’t avoid it. Only the good stuff works. Deep down we all want to believe that the good (i.e. expensive) products are just over-marketed, over-hyped, Vaseline in a jar. But as most of us know, that isn't so. Sometimes that miracle in a jar is worth the price. So what is a cheap (broke) girl to do?
My secret weapon- www.ebay.com! Let me clarify “the good stuff”. I am not speaking of the la prarie ($10,000 per jar) in a Hollywood star’s home; I’m talking about the products that you would find in a medical spa.
For example:
Unfortunately, Dr. Perricone has the best eye cream this
side of the Mississippi, and his new Acyl-Glutathione,
works so well on
any lines, it gets rid of any creases. However at full price, they are $95.00
and $175.00 respectively.
On ebay
I’ve been able to buy the travel sizes for anywhere from $12.00-$25.00. I recently
just purchased 12 “trial size” Arbonne lift gel (it is an eight hour face lift)
for $12.00.
The only
negatives are neighbors commenting on how often the ups truck stops at my door ;p.
So
happy ebaying and remember to never pay more than $40.00 of a trial/travel size
anything! Some people can get taken for a ride.
