Lipgloss: Sally Girl Mini Lip GlossThese little mini lipglosses are perfect for sticking them in your back pocket or a clutch when going out. These gloss smell like bubble gum and only under a dollar. Have two: LOL and Spank.
Mascara: LashBlast
I was skeptical in trying this mascara. I had been using Benefit Bad Gal ($19) for years. Expensive. I know. I loved the Badgal but my budget has changed. You can buy 2 Lashblast at target for under $10. I accidentally purchased Lashblast in Brown-Black but it did not matter because I loved how the bristles separated and voluminzed my lashes. My lashes were not clumpy. Love it!
Gel Eyeliner: Femme Couture
Sally's is my best kept secret for budget friendly make-up. I love this gel eyeliner and for an eyeliner under $6 and works as comparable to Bobbi Brown's gel eyeliner I am in. I did purchase Bobbi Brown gel eyeliner ($21) kinda steep for my budget today. The reviews were high on this product and I decided to try it. I loved it. It is creamy, long-wearing, smudge resistant and easy to apply. I have re-purchased this product for the second time going onto my third. I use this gel eye-liner everyday and I honestly love it.
Sally Eyeshadow Connecting Compacts:
These eye shadows are under $2. Now not all of them have good color pay off. The ones that I own and use that I love and have great color pay off are : Olive, Charcoal,Auburn, Brick, Bronze, Copper ( My Fave) and Orange Crush. I use them over my NYX Jumbo pencils or my UDPP( Urban Decay Primer Potion) These colors are pigmented and blend well. I have not tried all the colors but I did get Beige and the consistency is not the same. How can you lose with eye shadows under $2. A great thing about the packaging is that you can create your own color palette by connecting the eyeshadow together.
Eyeshadow Base:
I was introduced to this product on Youtube. So many Guru's raved about these pencils. So I wanted them. I have Milk, French Fries, Gold, Rust and Bronze. I love them all. I use them as base to enhance my eyeshadow color or alone. They are smooth, glide on well and blend easily.
Bronzer: N.Y.C. Sun 2 Sun I bought this on a whim at target. I loved the colors and was on a bronzer mission. I love the application on the bronzer although might be a bit shimmery for some but I love shimmer so for me no problem. I use the bronze color as my bronzer using the Big 3 method around the temples of the head to cheeks and then a bit down the next. I use the gold color as my highlight under my eyes and than my nose. I use this product as eyeshadow as well. The combination of the two colors looks perfect during the summer months.
Primer: Rimmel Fix and Perfect
I have never used primers before and this was the first primer that I have used. When I first opened it I saw that it was a peachy color and reminded me of Benefit That Gal. I never purchased That Gal for it runs about $28 and Fix and Perfect is around $7. So I pick Rimmel up at Target. Fix and perfect provides my skin a base and evens out my skin tone. The color comes out peachy but blends into the skin evenly. I notice that my face becomes less oily and my foundation goes on much more smoothly. Love it!

Foundation: Revlon ColorStay
I have this in Medium Beige ( which is a bit to light for me) and Warm Gold ( A bit orangy for me) but combine the two together a I get a pretty good match for my skin tone. I love how natural it looks. The only draw back is that you have to work quickly when applying because the foundation does dry fast. Just buff it in an you are good to go. Another plus is that CVS, Walgreens and Rite Aid have Bogo sales and can pick up 2 for the price of one. Great deal!
