Budgeting for self care

Edit: I guess I’m looking for tips or things that might of worked for you when you couldn’t really afford the things that once was your form of self care ☺️

Hi everyone, I’m in my mid 20s. When I was living with my parents I always bought my favourite makeup/beauty products once a month and I loved getting done up or trying new things. It was my version of self care & I loved it so much.

As I’ve got older, I don’t get my hair done in a salon, I never really get my eyebrows etc done as I happily do it at home myself.

Anyway, I’ve recently noticed with the cost of living even getting my makeup essentials has dwindled until absolutely necessary and I feel I don’t do much for myself beauty wise any more. I mean like a random trip for a blow dry, I don’t get my nails or eyebrows done, all simply because I can’t really afford it.

I see loads of other women get their facials or Botox, and I’d really love to do more for myself because I love those things. Does anyone have tips to budget towards those as a form of self care? I love getting out and doing those things for myself, just having some space and girl time but I don’t know how to take the next step 🥺

Any advice is welcome ❤️
