Save Money - Buy More Anthro

The less I spend on other things, the more money I have for Anthro.

Tip#1 - Get more from your Mascara.

One tube of my favorite Mascara costs a whopping $19. This is what I do to make that tube work to the very last drop. About 5 months.

Before applying make-up...

Purchase my Favorite Mascara from Sephora here.
drop the tube in a glass of very hot tap water. Making sure the tube is tightly closed.

1. Then apply some make-up...


2. Then dump the water and put fresh hot tap water in...


Repeat steps 1 and 2,  3 or 4 times before applying Mascara.


Carefully open the tube. The Mascara will be much more liquefied than you have ever seen it.

It will go on evenly in one coat.

Warning:  Although I have never experienced a problem, it's been pointed out that heating may increase bacteria.

This is a little secret the cosmetic industry would rather you didn't know.
After all, they want you to buy many tubes of expensive Mascara and waste as much as possible.
I started using this method years ago and have used many different brands. Waterproof or not.

This is my tip. I have never seen this suggestion anywhere else. I want to share it with you so you can save money and buy more Anthro. Which happens to be my number one goal in life. Tee-hee!

Works like a charm.
