Day One: My Current Beauty Routine
My current beauty routine is pretty pared-down…
Skin:
- Drugstore-brand exfoliating scrub, every other morning
- Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti-Wrinkle Anti-Blemish Cleanser every morning
- Or, if I’m staying at my boyfriend’s place, plain old soap in the morning
- Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture SPF15 when my face seems really dry (though I think it makes me break out)
- Neutrogena Alcohol-Free Toner when I remember
Hair:
- This is embarrassing… I’m using up all of the old hotel shampoos and conditioners I’ve got, so I clean and condition with whatever’s available
- I blow dry and brush, or just let it air-dry most days
- I rarely use any product on my hair. When I do, the results are usually not so good
Make-Up:
- I use Carmex or Burt’s Bees lip balm when I remember, or when my lips are chapped
- For going out, I either use Neutrogena MoistureShine Lip Soother (gloss) or one of the random lip glosses I’ve got hanging around. I rarely wear lipstick
- I use Bare Escentuals Mineral Veil, Concealer, and blush when I break out and have social events to attend
- No eye makeup, except for the occasional black mascara
Nails:
- I trim my nails when they break, and they’re super short, since they break often
- No nail polish

Few people seem to realize that some of us don’t even really understand *how* to be girly. I don’t even have girly friends to take cues from, and fashion magazines put me to sleep. My idea of shopping is seeing what new colors of tank tops Old Navy has come out with lately. I don’t know that being more girly is something I want to strive for, because I don’t have two hours to get ready either and I’m too frugal to spend a gazillion dollars on clothes, shoes, makeup, glamorous haircuts, and so on (not to mention all the time that shopping would take!) so it will be interesting to see what you come up with.
Oh Amy, I was hoping to get advice from *you*! I’m cheap, so you’re probably not going to see any $1500 facial treatments on the site. More like $1.50, if I can help it. Thanks for stopping by Going Girly!
You were??? About what?
Amy, you’re so good at the frugal living tips, I figured you’d have the inexpensive beauty thing down. You always look so put together!
