CBS 2 HD Has 10 Beauty Products For Less Than $20
From L'Oreal To Jergens To Garnier, They're All Affordable
NEW YORK (CBS) ―
As the holidays approach, most of us would love a little boost to our festive look.
CBS 2 HD has the skinny on 10 fabulous products that'll make your beauty routine better. The best part is each costs less than $20.
From pumping up your mousse to calming under eye bags to a manicure in a minute, these 10 products have been voted MVPs.
"These are the products we like to say at Redbook these products display both beauty and brains," said Krista Bennett DeMaio of Redbook.
Starting from the head down, if you love the oompf of mousse, but hate how it deflates in hand check out the version that steals from a dessert treat.
"It's like Redi-Whip for your roots," Bennett-DeMaio said.
But if multi-tasking is your preference, the Fast Style spray that doubles as a gel is the way to go.
"Either way you're getting frizz protection, static protection and anti-humidity," Bennett-DeMaio said.
Next, your hair's been working overtime with blow dryers and hot irons so give it a treat as you sleep with a silky overnight repair formula from John Frieda. Keep it in place with the brushable hairspray L'Oreal ElNet, which until recently was only sold overseas.
"It was like cosmetic contraband top stylists would smuggle it here from Europe. Now it's available at Target," Bennett-DeMaio said.
For ultimate volume flip and use the Nexxus 360 volume spray.
"Stylists always tell you flip head over and spray but until now you'd get hairspray running down the finger," Bennett-DeMaio said.
Jergen's gradual self tanners will give your pale skin the foolproof glow you crave in just three days and Garnier's roll-on eye gel will erase those tell-tale late nights.
"That's going to help de-puff the under eye bags. But also getting caffeine vitamins and hydration," Bennett-DeMaio said.
And for beauty on the go Pond's cleaning cloths leave behind alpha hydroxy acids to refine your skin, Blu-Ray cloths polish your skin to perfection and portable polish pens give you a manicure on the go in just minutes.
