Looking glam doesn’t have to cost a fortune! This list is packed with my favorite, more affordable makeup finds that truly deliver. These products prove you can get high-quality results without the high price tag.
A newly found favorite of mine! I absolutely love pairing cream and shadow blush together, but I sometimes struggle color matching when using separate cream and powder blushes. This trio provides a cream, powder, and shimmer, which makes the entire p...
Cheek Thrills Multi-Finish Face Trio - Blind Date
I love using an eyeliner to line my upper water line. I feel like it really helps to make your eyes pop, while still looking natural. I specifically love this one because it actually stays on my water line throughout the day! Some other liners will f...
I love so many e.l.f. products (as you will be able to tell by this list), but their lip products have become so of my most favorite (between drug store and high end combined)! This lip oil has an incredible formula that goes on so smoothly. This spe...
Another one of my favorite e.l.f. lip products! I honestly have 4 of these because I keep them in every bag I have (work bag, crossbody, larger purse, belt bag, etc)! The vanilla scent is amazing, and these are just great affordable lip balms to keep...
Squeeze Me Lip Balm - Vanilla Frosting
This is one of my go-to serums (even between high end and drugstore). I have gone through multiple bottles of this because it looks so natural on the skin. It blends out so easily, and I truly feel like I don't have any makeup on when I am wearing it...
True Match Nude Hyaluronic Tinted Serum - 2-3 Light
This highlighter packs a major punch, especially for the price tag! The formula and pigment is incredible and provides the right amount of shine without overdoing it, but definitely still making it known it is there. I love to use this above my cheek...
Just My Type Highlight Reloaded - Revolution Beauty | Ulta Beauty
This is a newer to me brow product, but I have been so impressed so far! I have darker brunette brows, and sometimes have a hard time finding a good color match. This provided a good color match while also giving volume and keeping my brows looking f...
I cannot say enough good things about this plumping gloss! I was, and still am, a huge fan of the original lifter gloss, but the plumping lifter gloss just takes it to a new level! It still provides the same, amazing color and formula quality as the ...
This has been my go to bronzer for so, so long! I have gone through so many of these, and they are consistently so good. The formula is hard to beat and it truly does feel like butter, as the name states! It goes onto the skin so easily and helps to ...
This is another product I have been using for YEARS! The formula is so creamy and blends out like a dream. I mainly use this underneath my eyes and blend it out with a beauty blender. It has been so consistently amazing for many years.
015 Light Fit Me Natural Finish Concealer - Maybelline | Ulta Beauty
I recently got this product and have been so, so impressed. I had never used a lip and cheek tint before, so I wanted to try something more affordable to see if I liked it…and the answer is that I LOVE this one, and won't be seeking out any others, b...
Kiss From a Rose What A Tint! Lip & Cheek Tint - Essence
I happened upon this product when I was searching for things that would help keep my lashes curled. My lashes curl pretty easily, but as soon as I put mascara on, they tend to fall pretty quickly. This base has been SUCH a game changer-my lashes hold...
Curl Fixing Lash Base - Essence | Ulta Beauty
If you can't tell, I really love Essence products!! This is one of my favorite waterproof mascaras. This stuff stays ON all day, and really makes your eyes pop with all of the added volume!
I Love Extreme Volume Waterproof Mascara - Essence | Ulta Beauty
This was one of the products my makeup artist used on me for my wedding makeup. I immediately went and bought it, and wear this all the time! The formula is so creamy and blendable, and this specific color is super natural, but still so pretty.
Achieve It All SuperStay Ink Crayon Lipstick - Maybelline | Ulta Beauty
I had heard so many things about this setting mist, and had been wanting to get my hands on it for quite a while. I finally did, and it truly does live up to the hype! I heard someone describe it as hairspray for your face, and that was pretty much a...
Infallible 3-Second Setting Mist Spray
The definition of a tried and true product! This is the perfect base or stand-alone product. For lighter makeup days, I will wear this on its own. It gives such a perfect glow! It also layers great underneath foundation or a serum for a glowy, lumino...
Halo Glow Liquid Filter - 3 Light/Medium
These e.l.f. blush wands are such a good value! The pigment is beautiful and the wand applicator makes it so easy to quickly apply!
