INSIDE THEIR COSMETIC BAGS

INSIDE THEIR COSMETIC BAGS

“Best celebrities beauty bargains”, “Drugstore Celebrity Buys”, or “A-List beauty for under $10” – every now and then I run into titles like the aforementioned, which have the purpose of bringing celebs closer to their audience, by stating there’s no need to splurge on fancy moisturizers or branded cosmetics when the fountain of youth is actually hidden in your local drugstore. Who would have thought that channeling Jennifer Aniston’s wrinkle-free complexion costs under $10 or that the secret for Emma Stone’s smooth-as-silk skin is actually something as basic as coconut oil? Now, don’t rush to the pharmacy expecting to look Red Carpet – ready after using one or even all of the bargains promoted by the celebs. What they sometimes forget to mention is the other dozens of high-end products they use and the army of hair and make-up experts ready to serve them on a daily basis. I selected a few of the Red Carpet bargain-addicts, showcasing both their drugstore fave buys and their high-end beauty splurges that mixed together create the “forever young” result.
