Rae and Ginger did this and I found it to be an interesting exercise.
I am not actually using the whole bottle each and every day, but for the sake of simplicity, let’s not get into the dollars and cents of how many uses I get out of one lip balm and so on.
On normal days (like.. everyday, 90% of the time)
PREP: $42.89
- Neutrogena Foaming Facial Cleanser: $7.99
- Paula’s Choice Refreshing Toner: $15.95* (50% of the time, I forget)
- Paula’s Choice Skin Balancing Moisture Gel: $18.95
LIPS: $1.99

Total: $44.88 x 13% tax = $50.71
On makeup-y days (normally when I go to weddings or visit Toronto) (10% of the year)
For real, I have some ghetto makeup in there like Bonne Bell and Annabelle. Rae doesn’t even believe that I wear that stuff when I have a Sephora so readily available to me!

Wow! Good thing I don’t do the full makeup every day so it lasts a lot longer than if I were to wear it everyday.
I can barely bring myself to wear concealer and eyeliner when I go to work.
So, what is your daily face worth?
