Base
We all know that your base is the most important step! Use these products to get a flawless base at half the price.
Every good base starts with a good primer. The e.l.f. Power Grip primer is my go-to drugstore primer. This stuff is sticky to the max!! which means your makeup is staying all day and night <3

My repurchases when it comes to concealers!
Another one of my favorite drug store concealers! I use this to cover up blemishes and the applicator makes it very easy to use. I have also bought a darker shade to use as contour!

Blush
I am a die hard blush girlie! Here are all the drug store blushes I have tried and continued to use!
A lot of liquid blushes can be hard to use and blend but this one is so easy to control. I also love the color options they offer!
elf Putty Blush
The blush has the luxury look without the luxury price! It is very pigmented and buttery soft, a must have powder blush!
Milani Rose Powder Blush
Another great powder blush option with so many color options!

Bronzer and contour are arguably the most important steps in makeup! Make sure you have the best on the market when it comes to price friendly!
My everyday contour. And I mean everyday. I never have a successful makeup day without this contour stick. It is sooo easy to use and blends like a dream. Great for someone who is new to makeup or a seasoned pro who is tired of spending $50+ on conto...
NYX Professional Makeup Wonder Stick Cream Highlight & Contour Stick
I found this bronzer two years ago and have been using it ever since. With this bronzer you won't get that orangey look with a lot of others I've tried.

Lips
You really can't go wrong with a $2 lip liner! It glides on so smooth and I rarely have to reapply!
elf Cream Glide Lip Liner
I love this lip liner as well just because it offers so many colors so you can always find one for the perfect occasion!
NYX Professional Makeup Suede Matte Lip Liner=
If you don't already use this you're missing out! It glides on as a glossy lip then after time it leaves a gorgeous stain to make sure you always have nice color on you lips! I personally love the color Hydra Honey!
NYX Professional Makeup Lip IV Hydrating Gloss Stain
Very comparable to the Dior Lip Oil but wayyy more affordable! It feels so good on the lips and in my opinion not sticky like other lip oils I've tried.
e.l.f. Glow Reviver Lip Oil
This is a newer product to the market and a total game changer! The applicator is so useful and glides on well to the lips. I love the color options they offer! I think this is a competitor for Summer Fridays!
