You have your favorite brands, some of them quite expensive and you probably can’t live without them.

Lipstick

We love the creamy texture of Circa Color Absolute Velvet Luxe Lipsticks. They come in a wide range of colors, creamy or matte and they’ll leave your lips moisturized.

Concealer

We tried Nuance’s Flawless Finish Naturally Luminous Concealer and loved it. The texture is light, and gives plenty of coverage. It blends really well and will be one of your favorite drugstore’s products.

Contour

We love the definition the Infallible Pro Contour Palette by L’Oreal gives. You can apply it before or after your makeup to create perfect symmetric lines.

Mascara

I know you’re very picky about your mascara, but you shouldn’t be as long as you know how to apply it and choose a waterproof variation. Don’t be intimidated by the low price and try Revlon Ultimate All-in-One Mascara.

Blush

This Mineral Wear Airbrush Blush by Physicians Formula not only works well as a blush, but also as eyeshadow. It blends well with your foundation, leaving a natural rosie color on your cheeks.

Foundation

If your goal is to hide every little imperfection on your skin and create the perfect canvas before applying your makeup, try Physicians Formula Mineral Foundation. You’ll be surprised by the results.

Brushes

The Premium Synthetic Kabuki Makeup Brush Set is very complete and inexpensive. They also work well and are delicate with your skin. Give it a try, will you?

Shadows

One color, smoky or cat eye? No problem! The Almay Intense I-Color is all you need to create dramatic  and expressive eyes.

Eye liner 

The only thing you have to keep in mind before purchasing eyeliner is that it should be waterproof. We really like Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Kohl Kajal Liner and you will too. Say goodbye to runny eyes.

There you have it friends, buy them just out of curiosity!
