Life is Short. Buy the Makeup.

  With the Holidays and Black Friday quickly approaching, I wanted to put together a few Holiday Gift Guides that are cruelty-free, vegan, with clean ingredients and for every shopper who's looking to shop for themselves or for their loved ones that are on a budget! Let's start with Target, the home of an ever expanding selection of clean and natural beauty brands!

One of the most common reasons I'm used to hearing about buying non-toxic cosmetics, "It's too expensive and I can't buy it anywhere." Which partially, is true. Green Beauty products are slowly becoming readily available, but they are still largely based through online retailers. So today, here's a list of my favorite online shops and retailers that are my go-to's for Green Beauty products. Plus some coupon codes to save you money at checkout! Let's get started!

How to Shop Non-Toxic at Target | Beauty Target has become a great source for finding healthy and non-toxic options. Not just in the kitchen, but in the beauty department as well! While it's no Citrine Beauty Bar or 100% Pure, Target is stepping up it's game with offering certified organic beauty options! Here's my quick "How To" on shopping at Target for less toxic and more organic beauty options! Let's get started!

Save 19% on Pacifica at Target Target is stepping up their game when it comes to their Natural Beauty section. They now offer brands including; Alba Botanics, Shea Moisture, Burts Bees, W3LL PEOPLE, Acure Organics, and Pacifica. I am transitioning all of my cosmetics and beauty products to non-toxic, organic, and healthy brands. While non-toxic hair and body care is becoming more readily available, cosmetics is still difficult to find at your local stores. Until now.

While I was wandering the makeup aisles at Target, I noticed some new ELF products available in-store. However, I did also notice that instead of just the regular $3 price tag, they hiked their prices up to $3.04 , which makes no sense to me. Keep in mind this is just at Target. Let's check them out!

While on my most recent trip to Target I spotted some of the NYX Butter Glosses on 50% off clearance for $2.48! These normally retail for $4.99 at select Target stores, in-store and online at  Ulta.com , and online at nyxcosmetics.com . Not all Targets may have this same clearance or have these glosses left in stock, but definitely check out your local Target to see if you can find these! The NYX Butter Glosses are amazing! They're not sticky and apply very easily to the lips.  There were 5 shades on clearance at my Target; "Red Velvet", "Raspberry Tart", "Devil's Food Cake", "Cherry Cheese Cake", and "Sugar Cookie". Not sure if these shades are being discontinued or if Target is just making room for new inventory. They are still available and full price at Ulta and nyxcosmetics.com .

NYX Gift Sets at Target I have been waiting YEARS for NYX to finally come to my Target, and I finally spotted some of their products today! Each of these gift sets retail for $9.99 at Target. If you've never tried NYX products before, the eye shadows are some of the best for drugstore prices, as are their lip products. Definitely run to your Target and try to find these, either for yourself or possibly a Christmas gift! Here are some closeup shots!
