My Top 10 Under $10
I've been noticing- there's a lot of really amazing cheap stuff lately. Almost every company has been upping their game and there has been some stand-outs.
Without further a do, here's my top 10.
The Cosmetic Clutch- $8
I super love this. I have a few that I keep for organizing my things for my makeup kits. They're easy to clean, easy to store, and they are sooooo incredibly durable. The zippers are made well, and is has a second smaller pocket for small stuff like tweasers or kleenex. These have been so handy. (And they're awesome for travel too).
You can buy them here:
Jordana 12 HR eye liners- $3
Oh man. These are so great. They remind me a lot of the Urban Decay 24/7 pencils and they are incredibly inexpensive.
Admittedly, they don't have the color range of Urban Decay, but they definitely hold up the same, set the same, and generally even look the same. I've been really liking these, and the black in particular is super inky. I love it.
L'Oreal Lineur Intense- $9
These liquid eyeliners have been amazing to me. They're incredibly inky, they're buildable, they last all day, and they just last forever. I wish they would branch out and do some wild colors too, but for now they only offer the basics.
Jack Black Lip Balms- $7.50
Despite how pricey these are, I can't live without them. They are by far the best lip balms I've ever used in the history of ever. They come in grown up flavors like Lemon Cammomile and Blackberry Tea, they have SPF 25, and they're nice and thick and last a long time. I have one in my purse, the car, my nightstand... I can't live without them.
NYX cream blushes- $6 and Revlon Cream blushes- $9.75-$13
I included both of these because honestly I couldn't choose. Revlon admittedly sells theirs for $13 in the drugstores, but they're online for less than $10. I really like these. The Revlon version is more of a gel consistency that incredibly light and very natural looking, whereas the NYX blush is more tacky but once you blend it in, you don't have to build it up and it stays luminous. Honestly, I like both about equally.
Jordana Best Lash Extreme Volumizing Mascara- $4
We all know by now this is my favorite. Just do yourself a favor and buy it.
Lavanila The Healthy Deodorant- $8 (travel size)
I know this is kind of weird, but I love this stuff. The scents are amazing, the consistency is great, it helps me not to sweat, and it doesn't get white stuff all over my clothes. I SO very much like this.
Ardell Duralash Naturals- Short Black Flares (around $3-5)
I like these. They're so great for filling in sparse areas, or for brides who want something really natural and easy. They're incredibly easy to apply and they some in a range of colors. Don't be fooled though, the shorts are actually really long.
$6-$10 for single brushes (about $15 for sets)
These are probably the best synthetic brushes I've ever used. I love that the bristles actually have a cuticle made on them so you can pick up products so much easier. I have almost all of them and I use them religiously. The eye brushes in particular are amazing.
Revlon Balm Stains- $9
These are great. The originals are great, the mattes are great- everything is super great. The stains last forever and the matte in particular lasts even through eating. I can't begin to say how much I love these. They're pretty much the only lip color I use, and I have several in various colors. I'll probably eventually own them all like a crazy hoarder cat lady. I can't help it. I'm addicted.
So go check out your drugstore and build up your collection of awesome-ness,
