  • Cheap-O Fridays: Holiday Edition


    To get in the spirit of today, Cheap-O Fridays will be a holiday edition. Everyone needs a great lip balm... why not get one to help celebrate! "Merry Cranberry" Lip Balm from the Body Shop costs just $8 for .45oz! Or buy 2 for $12- that would make any 'scrooge' smile.

    I love Victoria's Secret lotions. They are luxurious at a cheap price. The special holiday edition hydrating body lotion in "Gilded Ginger Creme" is sure to remind you of wonderful gingerbread cookies. Just $9 for a 8.4 oz bottle.

    And lastly, OPI's Holiday Wishes Collection has 12 great colors all under $9. Be bold with your nails and try Shim-Merry Chic (below).


    Do you like any of these products? What's your favorite holiday edition beauty item under $10?

    these are kind of expensive for "cheap"
    i would say the wet and wild nail polish for about $1-2 at target.
    and the lip smackers are back for like $2-3
    or even the victoria's secret lipbalm for 5/$20
    and the lotions, you should wait til both bath and body works and vs has their semi-annual sale.
    then the perfumes and lotions are only about $5, maybe even cheaper if you wait

    ...huh? Eight dollars for lip balm is cheap? Since when?

    Cheap is relative.  I think the best bargain nail polish is Sally Hansen in the cylindrical bottles for about 2 bucks.It's not as watery as Wet and Wild, and the color matches the bottle pretty well.

    V.S's lotions are made so damn cheap. drug stores lotions are made better and are even cheaper. I love V.S's body butter, but their lotion is watery crap and it makes me mad that people shell out so much money for such shitty lotion.

    @Debra - I agree! Some of those items didnt look so "cheap" to me. I bought Emerald City by Sally Hansen a couple days ago. It is beautiful!! A very pretty Christmas green. It took me 2 coats to get the color the same as on the bottle, but for $2.50 I will do that!! lol I also really like the Pure Ice collection.
