When it comes to everyday makeup, I really can't justify wearing expensive makeup to pop down to grab milk, if you are finding yourself in the same boat, this blog post is for you! All of these pieces are around or under the $10 mark, and are all sourced from Ulta, though they can be picked up from a variety of shops. For mascara, I have stuck around the $10 mark and am including my top 3 picks, they definitely don't produce the same results, and are all great go-tos. The Lash Sensational Mascara from Maybelline has a stand out brush, it is actually the first patented fanning brush, and for good reason too, the brush is my favorite thing about this mascara and gives you complete coverage on every lash! The LashBlast Volume Mascara by Covergirl and I have definitely taken a break since highschool, but that definitely doesn't mean it doesn't give your lashes a major boost, I may just need to pick up another one and get back to the good ol' days! The Sumptuous Extreme Lash Multiplying Volume Mascara by Estee Lauder packs a punch with the name alone, and gives a lash extension look, this is definitely a smaller mascara as far as the size goes, a great travel option, or one to branch off and try! When it comes to lipstick on a budget, I like to stay around the $5 mark only because it doesn't stay put and my coffee cup definitely doesn't need to be wearing $30 lipstick! The LA Girl Matte Lipstick is a great matte option, with a variety of shades as well! The NYX lipstick is another matte option, and sits around the $5 mark as well, again so many shades with this one! The e.l.f lipstick is a little different than the other two options, as it is enriched with Shae and Vitamins A, C & E to hydrate your lips. Eyebrows are definitely something that I can't skip IRL, and have tried a variety of products, for me, a brow pencil or definer is always the winner, whether it be a $4 pencil or upwards of $25. Today we will include options in the $5 to $10 range. I love this Ulta Slim Brow Pencil for the dual action look and the matte finish, it comes in a variety of shades, being a solid option for almost anyone! The NYX Eyebrow Powder Pencil is another go to, especially on laid back errands days as the powder pencil creates a very natural look. The Milani Eyebrow Pencil is a thicker option than the first and comes in just two shades (at Ulta anyways), if the shade fits it's a great option for faster and fuller shaded brows. The Milani Stay Put Brow Color is a different style of application compared to the other three, but comes with amazing "never turning back" reviews! When it comes to eyeshadow, I only use it on special occasions, only because I have eczema on my eyelids which is quite controlled UNTIL I put eyeshadow on, and then it flares up rather quickly and badly! However, if I was to buy eyeshadow at a certain budget friendly price point, I would go for a smaller $10 palette with shades I would consistently be using, to eliminate product (and money) waste! The LA Girl Nudes palette comes with a great collection of nude varieties, making combinations perfect for almost any season! The Revlon Colorstay eyeshadow is definitely a proven product on my end, and comes with zero product waste along with 8 shade options! Similar to eyeshadow, I rarely use foundation due to how irritated most foundations make my face, though I have one tried and true budget friendly recommendation! The Fit me dewy and smooth foundation by Maybelline comes in a variety of shades and is so light weight! When it comes to concealers, I tend to go for smaller tubes / palettes to ensure little to no product waste! The e.l.f corrective concealer is a great all in one option from neutralizing to brightening. The Sleek concealer palette is a great trio of correcting, concealing and setting! I haven't included a bronzer or blush powder option, only because it is not always used for an everyday look, and so little is used when it is, there are so many great brands around the $10-15 mark as they are smaller! I hope you've found this helpful and we'll see you beauties next Tuesday for Beauty Tuesday, and always on the 'gram at instagram.com/fakeflowersreallove
