Well, adding to this:
I love Schwartzkopf leave in, it's a new one & only @ Walmart, 6.something. Love it. Also Sun Bum 3 in one leave in, has uv protection

Shocking discovery- Dollar Tree's brand of "T Gel" dandruff shampoo works almost as well as the brand name, & with conditioner leaves hair looking pretty nice. Good to know if you live in a dry horrible climate that is HELL on the hair and scalp.

I love a ton of wet n wild products right now. Their nail polished that are shaped like sally Hansen total manicure bottles are the bomb. All the products in their color icon collection are amazing. Unfortunately I'm a foundation/concealer snob (bare minerals) but I use wet n wild eyeshadow, blush, and bronzer. Also NYC liquid eyeliner is amazing and only like $2.

In general I LOVE the NYC..so affordable. I use their Sky Rise black tube mascara, & sometimes the yellow Big Volume. Good for 'everyday', not perfect, can get a lil' flakey..
which brings me to: recently bought NYX, mascara top coat, waterproof. Haven't yet tried..supposed to make mascara waterproof/resistant, w/o the removal probs of using w/proof mascara.
OR u can us waterproof mascara on top of reg, but I want to try this^

WET 'N' WILD MEGALAST LIPSTICK LADIES!
Each lipstick is LITERALLY a $1 and some change. Not more than $2. All of the colors are good, they don't make your lips chapped or flakey like other cheap lipsticks do, and they have a lasting effect.
One of the colors, "Purty Persimmon", is A (nearly) EXACT DUPE of MAC's "Lady Danger."
I used to only buy MAC lipsticks for $15 each, until I found these Wet N Wild MegaLast lipsticks! They are just so cheap and they get the job done.
I only buy them now!

Bumping this one just got some good stuff from Target and Walgreens.
Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor in Obsession (http://www.target.com/p/revlon-ultra-hd-matte-lipcolor-605-hd-obsession-2floz/-/A-49104573?ci_src=17588969&ci_sku=49104573&ref=tgt_adv_XS000000&AFID=google_pla_df&CPNG=PLA_Health%2BBeauty%2BShopping&adgroup=SC_Health%2BBeauty&LID=700000001170770pgs&network=g&device=c&location=9011779&gclid=CjwKEAiA__C1BRDqyJOQ8_Tq230SJABWBSxnN19BcS_L GCWSyFTi_Hey7R7IMx57uTKpXGLrzVmQkRoCJbHw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds)
Loreal Infallible Pro Matte Powder (http://www.lorealparisusa.com/en/products/makeup/face/face-powder/infallible-pro-matte-powder.aspx)
Burts Bees Citrus and Ginger body wash (http://www.burtsbees.com/Extra-Energizing-Citrus-Ginger-Body-Wash/23099-00,default,pd.html) it gets so nice and foamy and it really cleans too
elf studio blush palette (http://www.walmart.com/ip/44303121?wmlspartner=wlpa&adid=22222222227031791987&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=59241849752&wl4=&wl5=pla&wl6=122254146032&veh=sem). I got it in the dark palette and let me tell you what the dark red in the palette is comparable to Nars Exhibit A the red blush. I paid $30 for Nars and $6 for Elf's Dark palette and got the same results. Crazy. The picture of the elf palette is a little bright. Its much richer than that.

Yea! I prob mentioned already, but I love Skyrise mascara, by NYC, it's lengthening. I also like NYX clear waterproofing top coat mascara to put over it.
NYC stick concealer.
Physician's Form all in one color corrector palette (it's in a round compact, the colors are all in together). I use it as eyeshadow for brightening.
Elf undereye setting powder w/its own brush. Elf lipsticks
L'oreal Visible Life foundation w/Blur, (it doesn't lift but is very moisturizing)
Essence brand brow pencil (from Ulta they've a bunch of makeup very inexpensive)
Also, I just got @ Target: You are Amazing, final spritz body mist in vanilla bean. It's a mini size they have larger ones & more scents
L'oreal dry oil leave in spray for hair, L'oreal moisture mist in blue bottle (it's hard to find tho)

I love "Simple" products, it's made for sensitive skin and don't have perfumes, parabins, or anything nasty. I use their moisturizing face wash, toner, and moisturizer, I use Burt'sBees eye cream (Simple has one, but I can't find it localy). Make up right now I'm on a budget so some ELF BB Cream and Hard Candy eye shadow. I really like the Hard Candy products and want to try out more later. My shampoo/conditioner is Not your mother's in Beach Babe. Gives me amazing volume and my hair naturaly has a wave to it and this just brings it out making it almost curly. Best shampoos i've found for a decent price with no sulfates.

Maybelline Baby Lips. This is pretty much all I ever want to put on my lips.
Cerave Hydrating cleanser. Best cleanser ever for any skin that isn't oil-prone (mine is normal, but on the dry side these days cause I've upped my tretinoin dosage). Although I get it on Amazon for cheaper than Walmart.
Burt's Bees hand creams: I've tried them all, and I really love them all.
Amlactin lotion: 12% AHA ftw.
Rimmel Stay Matte powder: it's great for camming and cheap as hell.
Hawaiian Tropic Island Sport SPF 30 sunscreen (for the body): So light, smells nice, and moisturizing (My face sunscreen is from Japan, cause they rule the sunscreen kingdom, just not for body).

Superprotip- Walgreen's Drugstore does BOGO- definitely worth it if you have to wear makeup & hair product for work. Also Target's markdown system has a specific schedule so if you memorize it you can hit up the store on the day they put things on the markdown shelves & save 30% or more.
I love the Tresemme hairspray scent- guys think it's perfume & their flexible hold version doesn't turn into white flakes on dark hair. The also have a blow dry balm that is really light & not too pricey.
Also this sounds lame but Burt's Bees products are really incredible. I get blackheads on my lipline if I use lip balm with Vaseline in it...no such issue with Burt's Bees.
& For really ruined/dry hair- the Aussie hair products in the purple bottles is awesome, especially the balm tubes. Cheap & goes a long way.

NYX eye & lip liners are pretty good. The only complaint I have with the eyeliners is the color sometimes goes under my eyes but for 3 bucks, I'll wipe it off. The pigment is great!

Maybeline Baby Skin Insta Pore Eraser (http://www.target.com/p/maybelline-baby-skin-instant-pore-eraser/-/A-15007507) love this stuff. YOu can put it on after you wash your face or after you've applied your foundation. Just dab it on lightly if you put it on top or your base. I have oily skin and the oil spots disappear right away. Also you can use it to mattify shiny lipstick. I got mine for only $5.99

I have the setting spray and it works. No tingles or burns when you put it on. I have really sensitive skin so that's important to me. It gives you a dewy finish, but that may be because of my oily skin? But your makeup does hold and it doesn't slide around.

PS ELF's translucent powder >>>>> not their color correct or so much. What's the best drugstore color corrector
onlinedancer
03-30-2016, 08:27 PM
- Maybelline mascara
- Dream Fresh BB cream
- Milani bronzer
- Loreal or Elf gel liner
Stay away from ELF face primer though. I had the worst experience recently (with the one called something like glow or luminous . its a pale yellow. ) the stuff was STRAIGHT UP glitter paste !! I looked like a dollar store version of Twilight, and it rubbed off every where. I used to love the maybelline Dream blush when it was a cream pot, but they changed they formula. now it has a texture similar to ColourPop eyeshadow
Still seeking though for the perfect, cheap, full coverage, not-heavy, complexion-matching, magic, unicorn, foundation.

Bump to ask a question.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a drugstore eyeliner similar to the Maybelline define-a-line? I've used it for years but lately it is really bad about smudging and getting everywhere. I like the soft 'pencil' type since I use it in my waterline too. Suggestions?

Loreal pro matte foundation is quite good not as longwear as estee lauder double wear but almost, feels weird because it turns powdery quite quickly so you have to work quickly but provides a great matte finish. I use the shade W6 sun beige which matches perfect my NC42 skin.

Cera-ve cleanser and moisturizer
Aveeno Apricot scrub
Olay moisturizer
Simple make-up remvoer wipes (Neutrogena does work well, but they burn my eyes and irritate my skin)
Organic unrefined coconut oil. I use coconut oil for soooo many things. If I want to travel light, I'll bring coconut oil instead of packing makeup remover, facial moisturizer, lotion, etc.

Anything NYX. It's not really drugstore (can't find it in Walmart for example) but I've seen it in every Target/Fred Meyer I've gone too plus Ulta. Their Liquid Lingerie is my holy grail of liquid-to-matte lip products.
