items For my baddie$ ballin on a budget! While I do love myself a nice luxury makeup product, we never love to see a Sephora trip that costs $100+ for maybe 2-3 products. I've been determined to find dependable products at a lower price point, especially u...

Blush
I would consider this a dupe for the Haus Labs Powder Blushes. The texture is very unique as it is a powder but it almost squishy..? Very strong pigmentation and lasts a long time
Buttermelt High-Pigment Blush | NYX Professional Makeup
Brows
this has been my HOLY GRAIL product of the summer. I cannot believe the hold on this gel. My brows look unrecognizable when I have this gel on vs. when I don't. To top it off, their taupe color is the perrrrfect shade for my fellow blondies out there...
Super Lock™ Brow Glue Clear & Tinted Eyebrow Gel
I would genuinellyyy consider this a dupe for my Anastasia BV brow powder. I much prefer brow powders over other brow products as the end result looks the most natural. The price point is unbeatable and I appreciate that the compact kit comes with a ...
Ultimate Brow Kit-Ash Brown
Probably my second fave drug store brow gel after the Maybelline Super Lock. I've seen lots of positive reviews about this one online/on TikTok as well
L'Oreal Paris Infallible 24H Brow Lamination
Love to use this for an at-home eyebrow tint. So easy to use and as a blonde/someone with lighter features, dying my brows every 1-2 weeks has been such a life-saver and also a time-saver during my makeup routine. I usually do a double tint to ensure...
Just For Men: Hair Color For Men | Beard Dye | Gray Reduction
i’ve been using this on my brows for a while to help accelerate growth. i spray it on a spoolie and comb it thoroughly on my brows. have seen great results
Keranique Hair Thickening Serum - Keratin
Powder
girl. I've tried so many different powders as my T-zone of my combo skin gets reallll shiny real fast. This is the best drug store powder I've found and I love how the pink shade really helps to brighten up the under eye area.
Infallible Blur-Fection Longwear Loose Setting Powder - L'Oréal Paris
Primer
I always find myself coming back to this baddie. Layers well under makeup and doesn't feel too heavy or sticky on my face
Liquid Poreless Putty Primer
I say this with love: if you're not priming your lashes before putting on mascara then genuinely wyddddd??? I am screaming/begging/pleading you to get this primer!!! It is not only so cheap but has wayyy outperformed other high-end ones that I've tri...
Voluminous Mascara Primer & Eyelash Conditioner - L'Oréal Paris
this was a recommendation i took from tik tok when i was looking for products to use when your makeup starts to look crusty. I struggle with this problem w my dry skin, esp when i wear setting powder. Even though this is a primer, you can also dab it...
Prime Focus Hydrating Primer Serum
Lips
This lip oil is THAT girl. You can almost never go wrong with NYX products. The lip oil colors are really vibrant and look really good with some nice, tanned skin and coupled with liner. I do wish it lasted a bit longer but tbh most lip oils I try wo...
Fat Oil Lip Drip Lip Gloss| NYX Professional Makeup
For some reason I struggle to find drug store lip liners that shade match my lips well. While this isn't the longest lasting liner I've ever tried, I really love the color/finish of this one in Mauve.
Slim Lip Pencil Creamy Lip Liner | NYX Professional Makeup
They weren't messing around when they named this a gloss/stain. I think I first saw Olivia Jade use this in a grwm. It does start off pretty glossy but as the day goes on and it starts to fade, it genuinely does stain your lip but not in a scary way....
Lip I.V. Hydrating Lip Gloss Stain | NYX Professional Makeup
This diva gives you a bang for your buck. I loveee the color of this one and it makes your lips look so juicy and delicious
Glow Reviver Tinted Lip Oil
Lashes
I've only had this for a few weeks now and honestly couldn't be more obsessed. I first saw it on a Jeffree Star TikTok review and he was blown away (hard to do). I've been shook at the performance of this mascara. Makes your lashes look nice, fluffy,...
Colossal Bubble Washable Volumizing Mascara
Contour/Bronzer
Pleasantly surprised with this product! I typically don't love liquid products and tend to reach for more creamy/powder ones. This one blends so nicely and I love that it is a cooler tone that I can actually use as a contour to sculpt my face and tha...
Camo Liquid Bronzer & Contour
Highlighter
I've been on the hunt for a drug store powder highlighter that is somewhat comparable to my favorite Rare Beauty one. This is the closest that I have found. Blends really nicely and looks more like a “glow” than a “sparkle” which I typically prefer i...
essence The Highlighter
Concealer
a great drug store option for dryer skin that also has really high coverage. very recommended on tik tok!
Bare With Me Concealer Serum | NYX Professional Makeup
another great drug store concealer option. pretty hydrating and good coverage. can crease pretty quickly though so make sure you set it with powder.
e.l.f. Hydrating Camo Concealer
Other
i use this whenever i actually remember to clean my brushes/sponges. I think dirty brushes contribute to some of my breakouts so I am trying to get better at cleaning them
Tool Cleansers
Finding my perfect sunscreen has been no small feat. I was pleasantly surprised with this one by Eucerin. I might even call it a dupe for Elta MD, although with a bit more of a shiny/glowy finish.
