With my last $10.00 I would buy.. | Part One

A blogging friend of mine, Sarah from More Than Adored, recently started a weekly series on her blog, With Your Last $10.00. Basically it's a compilation of super affordable products that she would recommend you pick up, even if you're super broke and need to limit your weekly retail therapy to only $10.00.

After reading Sarah's (click here to see her first 'With Your Last $10' post) I emailed her to see if she would mind if I did something similar here on Born to Buy. Being someone who's just finished studying and is currently unemployed, I'm on a super tight budget so this is absolutely perfect for me and my current situation. Thankfully, the lovely Sarah said yes so here I am! I won't be uploading these posts as often as Sarah because, well, I don't have that many products under $10.00, but I already have a second planned!

Australis Fresh & Flawless Pressed Powder

This product doesn't quite compare to the MAC Studio Fix Powder but it's a very, very close second. I use this to blot my face, set foundation and add additional coverage if and where needed. 

This isn't actually under $10 (oops) but, at $11.40 at Priceline, it's under $10 when on sale

Maybelline Baby Lips in Anti-Oxidant Berry

This lip balm is an absolute staple for me. It's featured here on Born to Buy a lot, purely because I love it so much. It's a fantastic product and so affordable. 

This product is $3.99 at Priceline

Rimmel London Lasting Finish by Kate Moss Matte Lipstick in #103 

The only lipstick I have from Rimmel (yes, at all - I don't know how!) is the Matte Lipstick in #103, a dusty pink, but it's absolutely beautiful. I want to pick up more from the the matte and original lipstick lines. They're super affordable and amazing quality.

Again, this isn't actually under $10 (oops) but, at $11.95 at Priceline, it's under $10 when on sale

Soap and Glory Hand Food Hand Cream 

This hand cream is absolutely amazing and such great value. For a review, click here.

A 50mL tube of this retails for $5.95 at Kit Cosmetics 

Ulta3 Lipstick in Coral Reef

This is the only Ulta3 lipstick I own but I've heard great things about a lot of them. This is a super bright coral colour that's opaque with one or two swipes.

These lipsticks can be bought from Terry White Chemists for $2.95 

Mode Cosmetics Matte Top Coat*

This top coat can easily switch up the finish of any nail polish. It's a great product. 

This nail polish is $2.45 and can be purchased at selected pharmacies Australia wide

Rimmel London Lasting Finish by Kate Moss Matte Lipstick in #103 | Ulta3 Lipstick in Coral Reef

So this is the first in a series of 'With my last $10.00 I would buy..' posts. It was surprisingly easy to decide what I'd buy, as I love each of these products! Now, my question is, what would YOU buy? Comment below!
