You really don’t need to pay a lot of money for great makeup products as there are some brilliant drugstore brands that create products that are great quality and a great price. I do love buying high-end makeup, however, most of my makeup is drugstore because it’s great for every day use and you often can’t go wrong with the price. I thought I’d share some of my current favourite drugstore makeup products.
The first product that I am loving at the moment is the MUA Undress Your Skin liquid highlighter in pink shimmer. Not only is this product £4, it is also so pretty. I often wear this underneath a powder highlighter for a really glowing look although it is very beautiful on its own. MUA make brilliant products that are so cheap and such good quality so I’d recommend looking at their products if you haven’t already. If you’re in the UK, you can find MUA in Superdrug.
The next product that I have been loving is the Miss Baby Roll mascara by L’Oreal. This is one of my all-time favourite mascaras as it makes my lashes look so voluminous and long. You can see how long I’ve had this by the state of the bottle but it lasts such a long time. This mascara is only £7.99 which I think is an absolute steal considering how good it is and how long it lasts. The Miss Baby Roll mascara also comes in waterproof and a variety of colours.
Next up is a single eyeshadow from No. 7. I’m not sure what shade this is as it doesn’t actually say but it’s a gorgeous bronzey gold colour with a bit of shimmer in it. I use this almost every day all over my eyelids as it is so pretty and goes nicely with my skin tone. My friend Laura actually gave this to me for Christmas and I absolutely love it, it’s such a beautiful colour and will stay on my eyes until I take my makeup off at night.
I’m sure this will be on everyone’s lists as the Collection Lasting Perfection concealer is extremely popular. If you haven’t tried this, I’m sure you’ve at least heard of this product and that is because it is such a brilliant concealer. I like to use this to cover my dark circles and any blemishes. This concealer is so thick but it doesn’t crease and it is so great for brightening under your eyes. Since buying this product, I haven’t used another concealer because it works so well.
Finally, here is the Natural Collection bronzer. This is perfect for anyone that struggles to find a bronzer that is pale enough. I love how natural this bronzer looks and how long it lasts. I wear this for a natural everyday look, however, I would choose something a bit darker for a night out. This bronzer is cooler-toned so it would work well as a subtle contour.
What are your favourite drugstore products?
These are great! I like my high end brands too but I am always up to try a drugstore brand for dupes or just to see how I get a long with it. I have that concealer but I can’t for the life of me work it out, no matter how I apply it my under eyes end up looking really unnatural and yet the shade looks to be right for me, odd! I will look into the L’oreal mascara, thats a pretty decent price!

I love the products you mention some are new to me some are not. For me here in the USA one of my favorite drug store brands is Elf – if you look in my make up bag between L’Oreal, No.7, Clinque, Lancome, you will find my ELF! I’d love to know if you have it there?

I want to Europe, because here in Brazil, many pharmacy products are priced at products from quality Brazilian cosmetic stores! Pharmacy cosmetics that are worth are only glazes!

I love shopping in my local drug store as well for make-up, especially because they have a huuuuge collection. I like their own brands as well, like Boots’s Number 7 collection which has products items for small prices.

Personally, I’m in love with e.l.f. Not only are they inexpensive, they also do not test on animals and have lots of vegan options.

I will be honest, I have not heard of any of these brands. I have a super sensitive skin. I usually stick with what already works or ask my aesthetician for suggestions.
