As a self-declared make-up junkie, going to America meant taking advantage of the much cheaper make-up available out there! A girl I got talking to in Sephora even said herself that the UK has to be one of the most expensive countries for beauty related products. This definitely made me cry a little inside! So here's what I picked up in America along with the prices I paid, what price they sell for in the UK and the savings I made!
