Here at MoneyPantry we are all about saving money.
And since we have a “Health & Beauty Closet” (yes, that’s how our hallway closet is referred to in our home) in our house, I know women spend a lot of money on health and beauty products.
In fact, the personal finance website, Mint.com published a story a while back where they gathered some eye-catching facts and statistics about the industry and shopping trends.
It turns out an average woman spends about $15,000 in her lifetime on cosmetic related products, with $3,770 of that going toward mascara alone!
Yes, that is big!
But what if you could save some of that money by creating your own homemade natural and non-toxic beauty products?
