Just something to ponder on: If you had P2,500 to spend on makeup, would you splurge on a tube of your favorite luxury lippie that’ll wait in the drawer 'til that special occasion finally comes, or would you buy seven lesser-priced bullets instead that’ll give you a wide assortment of colors for anything and everything?
Surely, there’s no harm in splurging especially if you’ve checked it out at the department store more than three times this month. But for those of you who choose the latter option, check the makeup aisle of your favorite drugstore for these bargains that are perfect for every occasion.
