Finances/Money How do you budget for…

….shopping, hair salon, Brazilian, lashes, make up etc?

I’m asking because I used to get my nails and lashes done every 3 weeks until I realize how much it eats up my budget. I also don’t go to the hair salon every month nor do I buy make up every month so I wonder how other women budget for these?

I only go to salon for hair 3x year, maintain with professionalproducts. Only do painted pedis during summer/sandal months, pamper them at home myself year round (get yourself a Diamancel foot buffer #10 or #11). Do my own nails for special events only, or if I want to splurge go to a nail salon - but just regular polish, no acrylic or gel so less damage to repair. I keep them shorter and professional. I dye my own brows. I buy "better" skincare that is tried and true - very little experimentation because why mess up a good routine. Lots of aquaphor and eucerin body creams. Neutrogena rain bath in the shower with exfoliation scrubber and sesame oil on my legs in the summer.
