THE ULTIMATE Drugstore Makeup List for Women over 30
14
items I have tried so much makeup in my life and these are my tried and true drugstore staples.
I've been using this for YEARS and have yet to find anything I love more 😍
Lash Sensational Sky High® Washable Mascara
As a 35 year old with pores galores, this is a very much needed step to smooth things out 🙌
Power Grip Primer
1
Goes on literally like mist! I love how fine the spray nozzle is! Smells really good too. I'm on my third bottle of this stuff.
Stay All Night Mist - Makeup Setting Spray
Sometimes I just wear this if I am running late or not feeling a full face. Helps reduce the look of my 35 year old pores. Great for under eyes too but be careful to only use a little. Less is more with maturing skin 👍
Perfect Finish HD Setting Powder
Great for if you want a glowy look! I find it also helps to reduce the look of pores if you apply it after your primer to the areas you need a little help.
True Match Lumi Glotion & Makeup Highlighter
1
I have used at least 4 bottles of this stuff. My GO-TO for when I want natural coverage without overdoing it. Chefs kiss for maturing skin and it has hyaluronic acid in it too! 🤌
True Match Hyaluronic Tinted Serum - L'Oréal Paris
Great for if you need to touch up any acne or melasma. I wouldn't use this all over as it's a bit heavier.
Bare With Me Concealer Serum | NYX Professional Makeup
I use the shades "blushing" as my base and then use a teeny tiny bit of the shade "bright pink" right above cheekbones. Be very careful with "bright pink" as it's very pigmented.
Blush Makeup
I use the shade "fair neutral cool" and it's perfect. They have sooooo many shades it's unreal! I love this powder because it's a very natural finish!
Halo Glow Powder Filter - Pressed Finishing Powder
Love love love these brushes. I didn't realize how much a brush can make a difference but boy does it! My favorite one is the biggest one, blends out my blush perfectly
Affordable Makeup Brushes: Vegan and Cruelty Free
If you struggle with contour, this is the one for you! There's literally zero ways to mess up with this stuff. It's extremely blendable and buildable. I use the shade fair/light and it does the job for me. If you're a beginner to contouring, this is ...
Halo Glow Liquid Contour Wand
I use an extremely light shade of this for my under eye area when I need it. If you have mature skin, less is more so don't glob it on, I make three tiny dots and blend upwards with a damp makeup sponge.
Can't Stop Won't Stop Contour Concealer
Really good mascara primer, but be sure to not glob it on, one light layer is enough!
Lash Sensational Sky High® Tinted Primer Mascara Makeup
I just started using this and holy moly I LOVE it 😍 it is dramatic, yet doesn't clump, so this will be in my regular rotation for sure!
Colossal Bubble Washable Volumizing Mascara
