Post #2: My Top 10 Drugstore Beauty Products!

Hello Beautiful People!

I hope you all are having a wonderful day today! So I was thinking, as I am beginning this blog focused on beauty and fashion--I should share with you all my top/most favorite beauty drugstore products. Since I am in college, but I also love make-up, I try to find ways in which I can have my make-up items and still be able to budget! Being a college student doesn't quite allow you to live life in luxury at all times, and high-end beauty products can get fairly pricey. Therefore, I have decided to share with you all some products that are my most favorite, can be found at any drugstore and are at a reasonable price! I love getting good products for a cheap price, and I'm excited to share with you all some good quality products that won't hurt your wallet! So, let's begin.

To share my products I will just put them in the order in which I would apply them onto my face. I will also list the prices, and all of these products can be found at Walmart or Target!


Face:
·      Olay- Fresh Effects Long Live Moisture $16
I love this product because it leaves my face feeling soft and it gives it a satin finish. This moisturizer is also very lightweight so it doesn't feel like my face is loaded with lotion--it actually just feels soft and almost as if it wasn't there. I apply this before I put on my make-up, I wait a minute to let it set in and then I put on my foundation.

·      Maybelline Baby Skin—Instant Pore Eraser $6
I absolutely love this! I use this everyday that I do my make-up. I put this on after I let my moisturizer set in. I put it in the areas of my face where my pores are most visible (so on my cheeks and around my nose) however, you can also put it all over your face if you wish. This allows my blemishes and skin to have a soft effect and it allows my foundation to look smooth and beautiful!

Foundation:
·      Milani- Conceal + Perfect 2 in 1 Foundation + Concealer (in warm beige 05) $9
This foundation has the concealer also mixed in it. I like this foundation because it is pretty full coverage and it will cover your blemishes but it doesn't leave your face loaded with make-up! When I apply this foundation it leaves my face with a dewy yet natural look, which looks great and for the price I definitely recommend this!

Face Powder:
·      Milani- Prep+Set+Go Transparent Face Powder $9
I really enjoy this face powder. Honestly, I have never really been a powder kind of girl, but I love this powder because it is transparent, so it matches perfectly with whatever foundation I'm wearing. This powder also gives my foundation a softer look making my skin look beautiful and soft!

Concealer:
·      Hard Candy – Glamoflauge Heavy Duty Concealer with concealer pencil (in tan) $6
If you do not have this concealer, I definitely recommend you go getting one at your earliest convenience.  I absolutely love this concealer, it is my favorite concealer of all time. I put this in my under-eye area to cover my dark circles and it leaves my eyes looking bright and makes them stand out (which I love). With this concealer you also don't have to apply much product (so it will last you a while) I just use a pinch and it does wonders!

Bronzer:
·      NYC Face Bronzer (in sunny) $5
I have repurchased this bronzer many times! I absolutely love this item because it is only $5 and it is perfect for contouring. I apply this on my cheekbones to add more of a defined line and it makes my cheeks look amazing!

·      NYX Wonder Stick (in universal) $12
This is another bronzer/highlighter that I absolutely adore. I use this everyday that I do my make-up as well. I have been loving this for 2 months, and honestly, I have no idea how I was doing my make-up before I had it. I use this to contour around my face and my cheekbones and it is super easy to blend with your foundation and it is also really easy to apply!

Eyeliner:
·      Wet N Wild Megaliner Liquid Eyeliner (in black) $3
This eyeliner has been my top favorite for quite a while. I use this to create my winged eyeliner and it stays put all day. It is also very dark and easy to remove, but it does last a long time and I always get compliments on my eyeliner when using this!

Mascara:
·      L’Oreal Paris Voluminous Waterproof Mascara (in carbon black) $6
This is my holy grail mascara. I love this item. I have purchased high-end mascara before but I always keep coming back to this. This mascara leaves my eyelashes looking long and it makes them stand out. Definitely recommend this mascara over any other drugstore mascara, it does wonders and like the name it adds volume to your eyelashes!

Lips:
·      Milani Color Statement Lip Liner (in All Natural 04) $4
I love Milani's lip liners because they are so smooth and easy to apply. The formula is great and the color is always bold. This lip liner stays on your lips for quite a while. It does not clump up and it also easy to remove. I use this almost everyday, and I absolutely love it!

Well there you have it guys, these are my top drugstore beauty products. I definitely recommend getting these items. I personally love them-- they are amazing and cheap!
