We don’t want to rush you (after all it’s only mid-October!) but the reality is that you have just 79 shopping days left until The Big Day. So, to help keep you on track, we are launching our Gifts That Make Cents series where we will feature great gift ideas that won't break the bank. We will then store them in our Your Favorites section so you have your own personal shopping mall. Save gas, save time, save wrapping paper and get all your shopping done in one place at your own pace. Remember, we love hearing your feedback, so let us know the products you love…and the “not so much.” 

Our first picks are from the cosmetic geniuses as Stila. They have put together four fabulous limited edition offerings that make perfect presents.

Even though we are all tightening our collective purses to keep pace with a shaky economy, we still want to look and feel beautiful. While we always feature products we love and trust, this is the time to dig a little deeper to find products we love, trust, and can afford! We polled all the savvy ladies on staff here at Daily Cents and here are the top nine most affordable products we use each and every day.

Buy them through DrugStore.com by typing the brand and product names into their search engine, and get discounts on products and deals on shipping. It sure beats wasting your precious time - not to mention gas money!

1. Cover Girl LashBlast Mascara: At $7.65 a tube, this is stuff is magic for those of us with wimpy lashes. Plus, you don’t need to re-apply 10 times to get the full effect.

2. Revlon Colorstay Mineral Eyeshadow: For $8.49, this shadow goes on smooth, doesn’t crease, and really does stay put through day and evening.

3. Almay Bright Eyes Liner/Highlighter Duo: Think two for the price of one here. For $8.49 you get liner and underbrow highlighter in one pencil.  Choose from a variety of shades.

In today's world, we are constantly in search of the magic bullet that will make us look younger and take away those lines that have crept onto our face over the years - and no, they don't add character, thank you very much! So if the thought of going under the knife or having some weird form of botulism injected into your face gives you the willies, we have the perfect solution - Frownies.

Frownies are like little bits of tape that work to re-shape the muscles in your face to keep wrinkles from taking over. You simply apply them to the area of concern, and while you sleep, they work to keep the wrinkles at bay.

We’ll cut to the chase on this one: stop giving your ass so much power. That’s the message behind Laura Banks and Janette Barber’s new book, Embracing Your Big Fat Ass: An Owner’s Manual, which is spawning a revolution to embrace your backside. 

Banks and Barber know a thing or two about turning conventional wisdom on its head – they wrote the tongue and cheek response to the rigid dating bible The Rules. Their’s was (obviously) called Breaking the Rules.

Even former model Tyra Banks is catching on. Banks and Barber went on The Tyra Show to show her how. 

Question is when will you?
