We’ve reached that time of the year when holiday-themed makeup lines are suddenly showing up everywhere, and all your favorite brands seem to have one in store. If you’re thinking about shopping for Halloween and Christmas makeup collections, here are a few things you should keep in mind.
Versatile Pick
Holiday collections are usually created with Halloween and Christmas in mind, but that shouldn’t stop you from using them all year long if you make the right pick. Look for products that come in versatile colors that will be a part of your regular makeup routine even after the holiday season is over.
Don’t Act on Impulse
It’s easy to act on an impulse when it comes to holiday-themed makeup lines. They usually come in attractive packaging and happen to be themed around popular culture, but don’t let that stop you from thinking twice before spending your money on them.
Consider the Price
The biggest issue with holiday collections is that they happen to be much more expensive than regular makeup products of the same quality. When you’re a college student living on a tight budget, spending a fortune on makeup isn’t really an option, so limit yourself to buying one or two products that you really like instead of the entire collection.
