eyes makeup
best and cheapest eye makeup; mascara, eyeshadow, eyeliner, brow makeup…
Definitely the best mascara I’ve ever used. It gives amazing volume to the lashes and doesn’t smudge. The brush is excellent, and it comes in three shades: black, brown, and dark blue. There is also a mini version of the black mascara, and the price ...
BEST MASCARA
A small eyeshadow set very affordable and perfect to carry in your bag. All the shades are beautiful, depending on your taste. My favorite are the first three: the first two are great for everyday looks, and the third one is perfect for more special ...
Mini mix eyeshadow
I’m usually not a fan of these sticks, but these turned out to be great. I got them mainly for the bronzer, since I prefer bronzer in stick form, and the blush is excellent. I’m not a big fan of the highlighter because I don’t use it much. I bought i...
NUDESTICKS
The best brow gel, very affordable. The pink one is a regular brow gel and can also be used on hair, while the other one is tinted, comes in various shades, and can even be used like a mascara.
Brow gel
Another brown mascara I tried and found to be excellent, maybe even better than the Glossier one. It also comes in black, but I haven’t tried that shade. Price: $4.99.
Essence brown mascara
face makeup and skincare
I really like this glycolic acid toner it gently exfoliates, brightens my skin, and makes it super smooth. Affordable and effective, I use it a few times a week for a fresh, glowing co mplexion.
The Ordinary toner
These setting sprays are amazing they’re cheap but just as good as some of the more expensive ones. I didn’t notice any difference between the three I tried, all are great, but I always end up picking the black one because it has the nicest smell. Ov...
Essence fixing spray
My favorite bronzer I shared a picture with three shades, but there are more. It blends beautifully; I usually apply it directly to my face and then blend, but if you want a softer look, apply it to the brush first. Very affordable. My only complaint...
Essence bronzer
Maybelline Fit Me foundation. I usually use BB creams, but I’ve tried several foundations and this one is among the better ones. It’s matte, affordable, and looks great on the skin. Price: $11.99.
Ulta Beauty
Another really good foundation, very similar to Maybelline Fit Me. Currently on sale for $7.50 (regular price $15).
NYX Professional Makeup - Foundation
The best concealer I’ve tried. I’m currently using it. I’ve tried many different ones, but I still haven’t found a better one than this. Price:$12
NYX professional makeup- concealer
A slightly more expensive concealer, but perfect it has excellent coverage and doesn’t feel heavy on the skin. Price: $15.99
L'Oréal concealer
The viral Essence concealer honestly, it’s okay. It’s not anything too amazing, but it does have good coverage. You only need to apply a very small amount to cover an imperfection on the skin. Definitely worth buying.
