I don’t believe in makeup products costing more than $20 individually because they are ALL MADE THE SAME. So this list is for the girlies who are on a budget and want the same results ;))))
As someone with combination skin and someone who wears glasses, a concealer that doesn’t crease, slide off my face, or come off on my glasses every time I move them is necessary. I work in various environments including offices, outside with children...
Fit Me® Oil-Free Concealer Face Makeup
Such a subtle tint that doesn’t burn, taste bad, or turn two-toned after eating or drinking. Perfect for a sun-kissed look on your cheeks and a rosy, kissable tint on your lips 😁
Sheer For It Blush Tint for Cheeks and Lips
Need a dupe for the Rhode lip balm? Elf has it! Such a glossy and non greasy balm. I am so picky about lip balms, glosses, and chapsticks. I really love that this one doesn’t turn gritty, doesn’t make my lips peel, and it tastes good!
Glow Reviver Melting and Tinted Lip Balm
I am PALE! And everything looks orange or yellow on me. This is the only setting powder/finishing powder I’ve found that 1. Doesn’t turn me orange, and 2. Holds up against my glasses rubbing on my face all day. And when I mean all day, I mean it! I d...
Halo Glow Loose Setting Powder
The stay all night micro-fine setting spray is the first setting spray I’ve ever tried if I’m being honest. I spray my makeup and then set with the halo glow loose powder and it DOESN’T MOVE! Anywhereeeeee. I honestly don’t think I’ll switch to anoth...
Makeup Setting Spray and Facial Mist
I loooovvveeeee a good natural lash, mine tend to lay completely flat and grow in all different directions. Lash princess has never failed me and keeps the curl and shape of my lashes and doesn’t bleed under my eyes or leave any sort of residue.
Lash Princess False Lash Effect Mascara Black Brown
This highlighter has lasted me months and barely has a dent in it, it’s such a good subtle highlight that goes perfect with a dewy makeup day or a full face
Dew Me Baked Highlighter
Okay sometimes I basically use this as primer bc 1. It leaves no white cast, 2. It’s not oily, but it acts as a sticky primer, and 3. I can use it with a bare face bc it leaves no oily cast or greasy feel, my hair doesn’t stick to my face and it keep...
Cetaphil Daily Oil Free Face Moisturizer SPF35
I used the matte power grip primer and also the pink primer and let me just say, elf has done it again☺️ no residue, no greasy weird feeling, it doesn’t make my concealer blend weirdly, and my powder and blush sit so perfectly on top, I love dewy mak...
Power Grip Primer
For $7 ??? Absolutely, so easy to layer and it’s so easy to build on. I like a subtle blush because I already get rosy over everything. Heat, cold, nervousness, smiling a little too hard, my cheeks are pink. This is such a good subtle blush and becau...
Putty Blush
THIS. Nothing else to say if you want a lunch that packs a punch and you need COLOR that stays all day, THIS! THATS it :) I have another rec for those who like a more subtle blush ;)
Camo Liquid Blush
A nice and easy subtle neutral palette, YES! I had a professional office job where we had to dress formal and prim and this palette for the most complimented on a show night. So good for a little smoky moment or a subtle brown liner blended up
Studio Makeup On-The-Go 9 Color Eyeshadow Palette - Warm Up (0.45 Oz)
Okay this…. ITS NOT MOVING. Go through a hurricane from one end to the other and you might come out half a body but this WILL REMAIN. It doesn’t budge even in the most extreme conditions;)
ColorStay Overtime™ LipColor, Liquid Lipstick
The eraser concealer, perfect. It’s creamy and fluffy and it’s perfect for a semi-matte makeup day or a subtle cutesy look. It’s perfect for layering and it blends effortlessly 🤩
Concealer Makeup - Concealers & Color Correctors
Dupe for a stay on lip liner!? YES!!!! This might just be the most perfect lip stain ever. Does it stain for a week? No, that way you can use a different color if you like but I’ll be danged if this one doesn’t stay on for at least 2 days…. Which is ...
Outlast Lipstain
It isn’t often that I use lash clusters. My lashes fall straight and barely hold a curl so I normally stick to mascara or prayer 😂 but some scenarios call for bigger fuller lashes. I have super thick and double lined lashes and these are my tried an...
Brown Wispy Lash Clusters 120Pcs C-Curly
Just because it’s from Dollar Tree doesn’t mean it’s not great still. From a family of estheticians and cosmetologists, b pure is a massive dupe. It’s good for your skin and still on a budget. I’ve never had a breakout with this babay
B-Pure Hydrating Rose Oil Primer Serum, 0.5 oz.
Again with the b pure. Not the absolute best thing you can get. I personally don’t favor using this concealer because I feel it makes my skin look TOO dewy. But if you are looking for super hydration and a good coverage this is for you.
