Favorite lip product ever, especially the shimmering shades- the most hydrating lip balm with a beautiful tint. After using consistently for one week, my lips starting getting a nice pout that stays if you continue using the product.
Pout Preserve Peptide Lip Treatment

High End Results with Drugstore Price Tag- my new favorite liquid, matte lipstick on the market. So easy to apply, and the brush/applicator makes it easy to not smudge your lippy, and it stays on all night while still keeping your lips hydrated. Most...

if you're looking for the perfect Taylor Swift red lip- this is it. I am so obsessed with the Pat McGrath lipsticks- I have always wondered what staple Taylor uses, and after I saw her in a monsoon of downpouring rain at the eras tour and her red lip...

Regina Menninger profile picture
favorite lip liner EVER- another drugstore product that I cannot believe is this high-end of quality. Because of the hyaluronic acid, it really does give you such a pretty lifting/plumping affect, and it just glides on the skin so easily while not fa...

My holy grail setting spray, no amount of sweat, wind, or rain can move your makeup an inch- confident my makeup will be locked in all day and night. I'll never go back to anything else!
Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray

beyond hype expectations blush- I have been using this compact consistently for nearly a year and I will probably get another year's worth of use out of it- it ends up being more cost effective than going through multiple decent blushes. I've been us...
Major Headlines Double-Take Crème & Powder Blush Duo
 
Regina Menninger profile picture
the most luxury contour for a drugstore price- it took me many bottles and tubes of contours/bronzers to find one that worked, and now that I've found this I'll never go back. The tube lasts me all year, and it is so creamy and rich and blends like B...
SEPHORA COLLECTION Cream Contour Stick
 
Regina Menninger profile picture
almost want to gatekeep it- I LOVE this setting powder! I have gone through SO many drugstore setting powders since the high end one I like is just so expensive, and this was FINALLY the one that stuck. I cannot describe the insane glow and brightnes...
Translucent Light Infallible Blur-Fection Longwear Loose Setting Powder - L'Oréal | Ulta Beauty
 
Regina Menninger profile picture
truly an absolutely magical product- I'll never go back to using foundation again- I can't believe this is a drugstore product- the way that this has the most natural finish ever and does not make me feel or look like I am even wearing makeup, and be...

Eyes

 
Regina Menninger profile picture
the best mascara at the best price- I love this mascara so much. You cannot beat the price and it makes my lashes lift without looking unnatural- I love the maroon shade- if you have blue eyes especially it makes them pop in the most gorgeous way.
Lash Sensational Sky High® Washable Mascara
 
Regina Menninger profile picture
stopped needing concealer because of this- I LOVE this eye cream so much. It really does instantly brighten the under eye area, I don't even really use concealer for my under eyes anymore, and if I don't have to use makeup I love that. The applicator...
Revitalizing Eye Cream

Skincare

 
Regina Menninger profile picture
An exfoliant that is safe to use daily that unclogs your pores, but will NOT dry out your skin. Whenever I use this product daily, I notice a significant change in my skin. It looks brighter, any redness I have reduces, and it just feels so healthy.

Regina Menninger profile picture
Botox in a Bottle- I started using this about four years ago, and I swear I repurchase it about every two months (I use it morning and night) for under 10 dollars… it's just unreal. I's 31 and have no fine lines (not to brag) and I swear this magic b...
Fight Deep-Set Lines with Argireline Solution 10% Serum
 
Regina Menninger profile picture
the best breakout cure- whenever I feel a breakout coming on or I have been working a lot and am super stressed and can see my face looking more dull, I run to get this and it seriously brings the color and life back to my face within a day or two.
Azelaic Acid Suspension 10% for Exfoliation & Even Skin Tone
 
Regina Menninger profile picture
the most fitting name- this moisturizer is amazing! I can't believe the price for it, super hydrating and melts into the skin. There's no need to spend a lot on a moisturizer when this exists.
Slam Dunk Hydrating Moisturizer for Normal & Dry Skin Types
 
Regina Menninger profile picture
my new staple toner- now that I've tried this, I don't plan on needing another toner again! It is so rich and creamy and hydrating and keeps my skin smooth, because of the consistency, you can really feel it protecting your skin barrier.
Cosmic Silk
 
Regina Menninger profile picture
the first makeup remover balm to not give me cloud eyes- I love using makeup remover balms, but in the past, I have almost stopped using them because so many brands gave me cloudy eyes while using them. The Cerave balm does not do that at all, and is...
Makeup Removing Cleanser Balm: Effective Cleanse
 
Regina Menninger profile picture
one of my staples- I love this moisturizer so much, I actually still cannot believe the ingredients list for the price. It is the perfect consistency, feels instantly hydrating, and even in the winter months keeps my face flake-free from dry skin.
3.3 oz Lightweight Daily Moisturizer - Good Molecules | Ulta Beauty
 
Regina Menninger profile picture
one of the best cleansers ever- I swear this balm gets every ounce of dirt, oil, etc. out of your skin- it feels so soothing and hydrating and a little goes a long way with this product when it emulsifies, one tub of this can last awhile and the ingr...
Green Clean Cleansing Balm

retinol eye cream that DELIVERS- I have tried probably 20 different retinol or other fine-line preventative ingredient eye creams and I found none of them to be effective at all- I had almost given up, but I tried the trial size of the Roc eye cream ...

I struggle with redness, and whenever my skin is freaking out on me- I always turn to this mask for calming, and this is great value to have a complete set of the redness reducing regime. Also a great gift!

salon style acrylics for less than 10 dollars- I used to get my nails done at the salon every 6 weeks on the dot, but in this economy? that's one luxury I had to give up- I started buying KISS press ons and honestly I don't think I'll ever go back. E...

Holiday

 
Regina Menninger profile picture
very merry manicure- I love Glamnetic nails so much- the higher price point compared to a lot of drug store press ons is definitely worth it. They are durable, the design and gel/paint quality is great, and they really do last the two weeks they adve...
