Here are my top 10 holy grail drugstore beauty products! These are all products that I have repurchased (some multiple times) and use almost on a daily bases!
1) L’Oreal Infallible Foundation
This is without a doubt my ride or die foundation. I reach for this more often than I do any of my other foundations high end or drugstore! It feels light weight on the skin and leaves your face looking flawless! You cannot go wrong with this one!
2) Maybelline’s Line Stiletto Ultimate Precision Liquid Eyeliner
This has been my go-to everyday eyeliner for a few years now! It’s not the easiest to do wings with but for just an everyday, long-lasting throw it on kind of eyeliner it is PERFECT! It’s a fairly wet formula when first applied so its easy to fix when you mess up but when it dries down it doesn’t smudge and lasts all day!
3) Garnier SkinActive Micellar Cleansing Water
I use this product almost every morning! I put some on a cotton pad and run it all over my face and neck to wipe off any impurities that settled into the skin overnight. It’s also great as a make-up remover (I swear it does wayyyyy better than any make-up removing wipe you can buy!). It leaves your skin feeling soft, clean and refreshed!
There are 3 different formulas for this product. The Pink bottle (my fave!) for all skin types, Green bottle for oily skin and a Blue bottle for removing water proof make-up. I have not tried the Green bottle because I have dry skin but I have tried the other 2. I personally did not care for the Blue bottle, it has an oilier consistency that I did not like and I feel like the Pink bottle does just fine at removing water-proof products.
4) Batiste Dry Shampoo
GIRL! I cannot even tell you how much I love this product! This stuff is amazing and it’s only like $5-6!!! It smells great and it doesn’t sit heavy in your hair. When it’s run you can’t see it and can hardly feel it!
5) Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser Dark Circles Treatment Concealer
This is another product that I have been using for years! It has great coverage without being cakey or drying. It is specifically geared towards under eyes but it is also amazing for covering blemishes in general!
6) Milani Powder Blush in Romantic Rose
This is my go-to everyday blush. It has great pigmentation, goes on smoothy and the packaging is super cute!
7) Pond’s Cold Cream Cleanser
This product has been around FOREVER and there is a reason it is still well used and well loved! I use this every night to remove my make-up! I take about a quarter sized amount, massage it all over my face and eyelids and then use a warm damp washcloth to wipe it away. It leaves your skin feeling, clean smooth and looking radiant!
8) Maybelline Super Stay Matte Ink Lip Color
I have tried a lot of drugstore liquid lipsticks and I haven’t really loved any of them until this one! The consistency is liquidy but creamy, it lasts a very long time, and has virtually no transfer. My only complaint is that it does have a kind of sticky feel (almost like a lip gloss does) that never really goes away when it dries down which is weird at first but you kind of get used to it!
9) Rimmel Scandaleyes Eyeliner in Nude
A nude eyeliner to go in your waterline is a make-up staple and you can’t go wrong with one that that has good pigment, goes on smooth and is only like $3-4!!!
10) Burt’s Bees 100% Natural Tinted Lip Balm in Red Dahlia
This is my number 1 chapstick that I have been using for YEARS! I love the light natural tint that it gives while leaving your lips feeling soft and moisturized. I literally have one on my make-up table, one in my purse, one in my car and one at work at all times!
