Introduction

This BAMF is the patron goddess of not spending too much money or something. You too can be this awesome. (Source)

UPDATE: See the updated About page here.

It really pisses me off when people waste their money on products when there are cheap alternatives that are just as good or better. You’re letting them beat you! Don’t do it!

Of course, sometimes you just want to spend extravagantly, because YOU CAN, and fuck everything, the packaging is really pretty, okay? Do what you want! But when you’re not in the mood for reckless consumerism, I am here to help you find cheap and awesome shit.

I’ll only post reviews of things I have tried personally and loved and am willing to stake my non-existent Internet reputation on. Or maybe terrible stuff that you should avoid. Whatever. Heavy on the beauty products and skincare, but if I want to tell you about something else, I will! Just try to stop me.

I haven’t been paid to endorse any of this crap. If I am ever be given something for free to review, I solemnly swear to be honest about what I think and to tell you that I got it for free.

About Me:

I’ll tell you a little about myself, because as they say on the internets, YMMV. Especially when it comes to things you put on or in your body, everyone will react differently. So I’ll tell you what works for me, and you can decide based on whether or not we have anything in common if you want to try it out too.

I'm in my early 30s, with dyed red hair, and pale, oily skin that breaks out pretty regularly. I doubt I will be reviewing any facial moisturizers around here, because my skin is plenty moist already, thankyouverymuch. (Please stop sending them to me, Birchbox, even though I am a young-old!) Anything else you need to know, I will include in my reviews.

Thanks! Please always feel free to let me know (via comment or email at cheapasf@gmail.com) if you have any cheap shit to recommend.
