B cheap...

Living the b-life is about having it all, but sometimes we're still aspiring to get it. That being said, you gotta know where and how to cut back without sacrificing the sexy. Trust, you can b cheap, and still get quality by spending a low quantity of your pesos.

We've put together a short list of cheap beauty products you can find at your local drugstore. These potions will keep you looking fierce without breaking the bank.
(All products have been tested, and they work magically.)

Vichy Normaderm Daily Exfoliating Cleansing Gel - $14

This exfoliator will slough away dead skin, clear up minor blemishes, and make room for you to glow. Vichy products can be found at participating Duane Read stores or at www.vichyusa.com.
Vichy Thermal Fix Eyes - $19

Ever wake up looking like you just got back from the club, even on a Wednesday morning? Thermal Fix will deflate those under-eye bags and keep that delicate area taught, but supple. (This is the best under-eye treatment I've used to date - no matter what the price.)

Pantene Pro-V Restoratives Frizz Control - Extra Strength Serum - $10 (price varies)

This miracle in a bottle will turn wool to silk. Apply after shampooing, and this formula will leave hair soft, silky, and shiny. No lie.

Dove Firming Beauty Body Lotion - $8 (price varies)

It's hard to eliminate cellulite for good, but a daily dose of this firming lotion makes a world of difference. Clumpy areas are smoothed out and legs appear much tighter. Warning, when you stop using the product, your legs will go back to their natural state within a few days. It's best to just keep this on hand at all times.


Johnson's Baby Oil Gel, Lavender - $4 (price varies)

My pageant-queen friend (thanks Court!) put me on to this baby oil gel, and assured me that my gams would look like 1 million bucks. A little dab will give your legs contour and shine, as you walk pretty in your Spring minis.


If you're not at La Mer and Yves Saint Laurent status, don't fret, you'll get there. Ta ta for now!
