Since I was fourteen years old, the main category that all of my money goes toward is makeup. Throughout the years, I've upgraded to some high-end products, but I also have drugstore favorites that I've been sticking to since the beginning. I tend to buy makeup in mini hauls, averaging at about $30-$50 per haul.
But, I've never stopped to think: how much is my entire makeup bag worth with all the products inside?
When I totaled every makeup product I own, I felt like breaking into tears. But, it's a great eye opener in how much money we've actually spent on every product our own. I encourage you to try this out, in an attempt to see how much you've spent, and how you can budget your money more wisely (without cutting out makeup completely!) But, so you don't feel bad, here's the total worth of my makeup bag.
