I will basically splurge on just about anything if I find something I like that I think is worth the price, but the one thing that I never mind paying top dollar for (that I know a lot of people think is stupid) is mascara. I've paid like $50 for high-end mascara (Guerlain, not worth it, but the packaging is gorgeous!) and I really don't mind as long as I get the effect I want.
I KNOW people say that drugstore mascaras work just as well but I have never found one that I can use 100% on it's own and achieve the full, long lash look I desire. I don't know, maybe at this point it's psychological, although I am enjoying the Miss Manga for my more natural lash days.
Why not wear falsies? I don't like them, plain and simple.

I am also becoming more and more willing to splurge on fragrance. Every time I find a new scent I like, it gets more expensive, whoops!
ETA: Ahhh! It gets longer! But I forgot to add that I absolutely will not ever, ever splurge on salon hair services. I get poo all the time from people who discover I cut and color my own hair (not so much color since I am going back to natural) but funnily, they had nothing but compliments before they found out I did it myself.
