Let’s start this post by saying, yes, I know I’ve already written about some affordable brands, but these are new and I’m so excited about them!

I’ve been doing a lot of research and looking at a lot of brands that are out there and trying to find those few brands that I actually like. There are some big brands that I think are amazing and some smaller brands that I think are great as well. I’ve tried some of the bigger brands before and I think I may have been let down because the price was so high. I’m hoping this time around I can find some awesome brands that will be more affordable. I love the fact that a lot of these brands I’m talking about don’t use animal testing or animal products. It’s important to me that the products I’m using have a low or no impact on the environment.

These are brands I’m most excited about so far:

Pony

I found out about Pony through a beauty blogger. I really like her blog and she does amazing reviews. I really like her style and thought she was a great person to follow and I found her blog to be really informative. I love the fact that Pony isn’t just a cosmetics brand. They are all natural and all products are cruelty-free.

The Face Shop

I love The Face Shop because it has a lot of affordable products and it’s a cruelty-free brand that I can use as well. Their products are so well-reviewed and I’ve already tried a few things. I found a few on Amazon.com and they have a lot of products for both men and women.

Wander Beauty

I really like Wander Beauty because their products are inexpensive and you can find a lot of great things there. Wander Beauty has a ton of reviews and it’s a cruelty-free brand that you can find easily on Amazon.com. The makeup looks really well and they have a ton of great stuff to try.

Lancome

Lancome is another brand that I’ve seen a lot of recommendations for. I like the way it looks and it’s inexpensive so I may have to check out some of their stuff.

Benefit Cosmetics

Benefit Cosmetics is a brand I’m seeing a lot of recommendations for. I like the way their eyeshadow looks and the way it’s packaged. They’re affordable and they have great reviews so you can be sure that what you get is what you’re paying for.

CJ Cosmetics

I really like CJ Cosmetics because they have a lot of affordable options. They do have some nice items and they have a really good price. I’m not sure how I’m going to like all of their stuff, but I’m giving it a shot and seeing if I like them.

Bath and Body Works

I’ve heard a lot of great things about Bath and Body Works. I was a little skeptical to start with because of their prices, but I’m starting to really like it and I’m starting to like their products. I don’t know what it is, but I feel like I like their stuff.
