Top 10 Favourite Drugstore Makeup Products

Hi guys! My number one place to visit is the drugstore. Today I'll be showing you my favourite drugstore makeup products that I just can't get enough of. I always find myself drifting towards Priceline whenever I go to the shops and always end up forking out a little money. I think it's amazing that you can get such high quality products for such a low price, and some even beat high end expensive products. These products in this post are my absolute fave drugstore buys. Whenever I finish them I go straight to the drugstore to stock up on more. I'd also like to give a big thankyou to one of my bestfriends who helped me set up this blog! I hope you enjoy xx.

  1.Master Hi-Light Blush - 20 Pink Rose - $19.95. This is exactly what the name states. This blush is a beautiful, bright rosy blush. It creates a really pretty glow to the face due to the white highlight embedded in it. It is a little glittery so if you don't like glitter it may not be to your taste, but if you do, it is the perfect blush for summer. It has excellent pigment, creating a pretty pop of pink on your cheeks. It also comes with a brush and a mirror. This is the pinkest shade in the range and there is also a paler pink which could be used for a highlight, a peachy blush shade and a more purple blush. There's also a really nice bronzer shade. I definitely recommend these blushes if you're looking for a pretty and affordable blush for summer.

2. Chi Chi Glamorous Classics Eye Shadow Palette - $22.95. This is my favourite drugstore eye shadow palette by far. There aren't many drugstore eye shadow palettes that contain this many quality eye shadows. The colours in this palette are gorgeous, with a combination of mattes and shimmers. They have really good pigmentation and almost have a creamy feel to them. There are many different coloured palettes in this collection from nudes to metallics. This one is my favourite along with the nudes palette. The classics palette also has a few shades that are very similar to shades in the Urban Decay Naked 1 & 2 palettes. If you're looking for an eyeshadow palette, go check out the this collection as there is bound to be a palette that will suit you.

3. Fit Me Matte and Poreless Foundation - 115 Ivory - $18.95. I used to use the original Fit Me foundation and it was my favourite drugstore foundation. So when I heard that Maybelline were releasing two new fit me foundations I was really excited. I chose the matte and poreless as I have quite oily skin. I love the new foundation. It really does make my skin look matte and has allowed me to reduce the amount of times throughout the day that I have to touch up with powder. I like the matte and poreless formula better as it blends into my skin a lot better and looks more like my skin. This foundation is also a lot like the L'oreal True Match Foundation, so if you want to try a slightly cheaper foundation then try this fit me foundation. There is also the dewy and smooth fit me foundation so if you like a dewy foundation then I recommend you try that.

4. Maybelline Eye Studio Precise - soft brown - I got mine for $13.15 but prices may vary - This is one of my newest purchases and yet it's already become one of my faves. At first I was quite hesitant because it came out more waxy than I had expected. But after a few uses it became my favourite drugstore brow pencil. I use the colour soft brown and its the perfect colour match. I learnt that once you've applied the product, if you use the spooly at the end of the pencil it blends out the product really nicely. It stays on my brows for the whole day and doesn't fade at all. Its a little hard to use at first, but with a little practice it will become easy to apply.

5. Australis Metallix Eyeshadow - Gold Gaga - $7.95. The Australis Metallix Eyeshadows are very similar to the AC Me eyeshadows that Australis came out with before. The Metallix eyeshadows only come in 6 shades unfortunately but all the colours are incredibly pretty. My personal favourite is gold gaga which is a really intense metallic gold. These eyeshadows are cream eyeshadows. They are really easy to blend and have the best finish! A tiny bit goes a long way with this product. The next time you pass the drugstore go check this out and give it a swatch, you'll love it!

6. Maybelline Fit Me Concealer - 15 Fair - $14.95. Fit me concealer is an amazing concealer. Its amazing for both face concealing and under eye concealing. It's hard to find a concealer that doesn't crease under the eyes, and this concealer does the job. It's an amazing formula and is really easy to blend. It's famous for being a dupe for the Nars creamy concealer and it definitely lives up to its name. I've used other concealers but always seem to come back to this one. I definitely recommend this to everyone. It has amazing coverage yet still feels really light on the skin and looks really natural.

7. NYX Butter Gloss - 05 Creme Brulee - $9.95 - This is the perfect buttery nude lipgloss. Its so buttery without feeling too sticky. I love the colour range of this line and creme brulee is the perfect nude out of the range. You can wear this anywhere including school and work. If you just want a little touch of pink and gloss on your lips then this is the perfect product for you. It lasts for ages on the lips and moistures the lips aswell. This is also perfect for wearing over the top of a nude lipstick. I highly recommend these buttery glosses.

8. Maybelline Volum' Express The Falsies Flared Mascara - Very Black - $19.95. This mascara is beautiful. If you want lots of volume then this is the mascara for you. You have to be careful not to put on too much otherwise it can get clumpy but if you work carefully with it, its amazing. Its not a major curling mascara but it does curl the eyelashes slightly. It also lengthens the eyelashes. So if you're on the lookout for a voluminous mascara then give this a go. I've tried many mascaras including many maybelline mascaras and this one is definitely my favourite for volume.

 

9. Maybelline Colour Sensational Stripped Nudes - 725 Tantalizing Taupe - $16.95. I was so pleased when I discovered this product. It is the perrrfect nude. It so moisturising to the lips and smells really good. It's sort of between a balm and a lipstick. It is so creamy and doesn't need a gloss over the top. It's stunning! Its also so good for its price! The other colours in this range are also  beautiful so I'm definitely going to have to pick some more up!

10. Maybelline Line Express Eyeliner - Ebony Black Noir - $8.50. This is such an easy eyeliner to work with. It's so black and its really easy to achieve a sharp black line. If you smudge it just after you've applied it you can create a really gorgeous smokey eye. It's definitely a staple to have.

Hope you've enjoyed this post and I hope it's inspired you to go to the drugstore and check out some of these amazing makeup products.
