$20 Makeup Challenge - Coupon Style!

Hey everyone! I've been watching too much YouTube lately, and been hooked on these $20 Makeup Challenge videos all the Beauty Gurus have done! So, I decided it would be fun to do it, using coupons and this week's sales! I got just under $20, spending only $19.96! I know my total could have been lower, but I wanted to purchase products that I didn't already have, and products that I've heard good reviews about! I think this is a cool way to show everyone that you REALLY CAN get a nice look, and not have to spend tons of money! So here we go!

Super Cheap Almay Cosmetics at Walgreens!

Hey guys, here are a few deals I found to use your $4/1 Almay Cosmetic Product coupons from 06/01! I think the best deal this week is at Walgreens because they have a store coupon for $2/1 Almay Makeup Remover or Cosmetics in their June Savings Book (Found at the front of the store, near the store ads). Stacking these two coupons will give you MAJOR savings! 

My Walgreens does not allow overage, so below are some breakdowns that will get you the most out of your available coupons! I don't know about you guys, but I HATE when a high value coupon has to be adjusted down to just pennies! :/ so I tried to find some deals that would avoid that! Feel free to mix and match these deals, I just paired them up to make the math easier for myself! Hahaha!

Complimentary Subscription! Siempre Mujer AND People en Espanol! + ALLYOU Magazine for just $2 Per Year!

I just ordered these magazine subscriptions for Hector's mom! She loves to read, and loves to flip through magazines, so I thought these Spanish magazines would be PERFECT!

Check out the Free Biz Mag website to sign up for the Siempre Mujer Magazine subscription! You will have to fill out a little bit about the "company you work for". The information is very generic, and does not ask for any personal or factual information ;). 

• You will then be given the option to choose from different business based literature. (I skipped on these options). 
• Next, fill out your shipping information. You want to be sure that this information is correct, as this is where they will send your subscription!
•  Now you will be given the option of purchasing another magazine subscription for only $2! The first option offered to me is ALLYOU magazine! And this is an amazing deal! ALLYOU is considered the "Couponer's Magazine", because it is loaded with lots of high value coupons! This is a separate subscription, so you will have to enter your credit card information. To be honest, this is the only subscription I would pay for. Almost every other option on the list has been made available for free through this website, so feel free to skip on this any of the other options. 
• Now, you will come to a screen titled " A Complimentary Gift For You". Here you have access to a few more COMPLIMENTARY magazine subscriptions. This is where you will find the one-year subscription People en Espanol!
