Favorite drugstore makeup
Throughout the years I have tested several different brands and I can definitely say, that sometimes more expensive does not always mean better. This is coming from a makeup artist that is willing to pay $80 for a foundation if it is amazing, but why do that when you can find something at a fraction of the price. Here’s a list of my current drugstore favorites. Let me know in the comments if you have discovered anything I need to try!

Loreal INFALLIBLE 24hr Fresh Wear
This has been a staple of mine for years, every time I try and branch out to a high-end foundation I end up coming back to this one. It’s a medium buildable satin coverage and in my opinion would work for any skin type.
Loreal INFALLIBLE PRO-MATTE Foundation
Another amazing foundation, more of a matte finish and great for oily skin. I actually love mixing this with the fresh wear. I would recommend this one for oily skin.
e.l.f Hydrating Camo Concealer
I recently discovered this concealer from a recommendation by a follower, and fell in love. I prefer the peachy shades to correct any darkness under the eye. Very similar to Tarte Shape Tape but a fraction of the price!
e.l.f Halo Glow Setting Powder
I love this powder to set my concealer. You only need a little bit! I prefer the light pink shade to brighten and correct any darkness.
For reference
Physicians Formula Butter Bronzer
This bronzer has a incredibly creamy and soft texture, which combines the best features of a powder and cream bronzer. It blends out beautifully and gives a glow without being shiny or glittery. I use the shade sunkissed.
Milani Brow Pomade
A great dupe for the Too Faced Brow Pomade I use and love the brush it comes with. I use the shade medium brown.
Maybelline Falsies Mascara
This is my current favorite drugstore mascara. It does everything I like in a mascara; gives volume, length, and isn’t clumpy. It’s also ophthalmologist tested, suitable for sensitive eyes and contact lenses.
Mialni Stay Put Eyeliner
The darkest and most creamy pencil liner I have tried, it almost has a glossy look. I have been using this on my waterline for years and cant do full glam on myself without it.
Physicians Formula Eye Booster Liner
An ultra-fine, water-proof liquid eyeliner. I love that it has a brush tip vs felt, which makes it easy to get fine line. A MUST if you like a winged liner.
Neutrogena Sunny Berry Lip Balm
This is what I wear on my lips 99% of the time. I keep one in every purse I own, and my car so I’m never without it. It is a tinted chapstick that hydrates, gives you the perfect natural lip color, and a better look.
Flower Beauty Peach Primrose
My favorite peachy blush! Pigmented, blends out beautifully, the color is similar to MAC Melba.
BH CosmetiCS Rose Gold Brush Set
You can’t beat the price for this set. I bought this set just for the powder brush but ended up loving all of them.
