PRETTY PENNY

NYC women reveal their beauty budgets — and the regimens that keep them radiant

The skin-care obsessive

Amy Ogden, 40, makes at least one unexpected beauty buy each month. April’s purchase: magnetic eyelash extensions ($80).

“It always seems like there’s one new thing I need,” says Ogden, who works in p.r. and lives in the West Village.

That means combing blogs and magazines for the latest trendy releases, and regular trips to beauty stores.

“I probably buy 10 products a month,” she says. “It doesn’t blow the bank. I just really love them!” Most of her shopping — which runs an estimated $200 per month — is done at Space NK.

Ogden paints her own nails weekly and turns her bathroom into a spa for at-home facials. But she does budget $1,500 per year for regular dermatologist visits.

She also shells out for brow care (monthly brow touch-ups at Boom Boom Brow Bar, $30), salon dye jobs (45-minute root touch-ups at Madison Reed, $45) and pedicures (monthly at SpaBelles, $45). And she spends an estimated $20 per month on razor cartridges, and not just for her body.

“I shave my face once a week!” she says. “You can’t be dewy if you’re covered in hair.”

The makeup tester

Radio host Tracy Garraud, 31, relishes not having to put a face on every morning.

“I’m so happy that my image is not that of a girly girl,” says Garraud, who lives in Prospect Heights.

Garraud does shell out for eyebrow grooming. “I get my eyebrows done [at a place in my neighborhood] — that’s the only thing that’s not DIYable” ($12).

Her skin-care staples, which she buys roughly twice a year, include Fresh cleansing oil ($42), Boscia luminizing mask ($34) and Kiehl’s Creamy Eye Treatment ($48). (She spends an estimated $75 to $100 per month to replace empties.)

Makeup is a different story. “As a woman of color, you’re constantly searching,” she says of her hunt for products that fit her complexion and needs. Her current faves include MAC foundation ($28), Stila highlighter ($32) and Too Faced primer ($30), although she’s always trying something new. Her one constant: NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer ($30).

“It’s top-notch,” she says.
