I did this post already once before, but that was back in March and my makeup tastes have changed a lot since then, so it was definitely time for round two. I love my high end products, but there are still a fair few drugstore products that regularly enter the rotation, and deserve endless praise! Plus, you guys wanted more drugstore reviews, well, your wish is my command...
Soap and Glory Supercat Liner - £6.00 in Boots
The only liquid eyeliner offering I ever reach for. Firm but thin nib, super black colour payoff, easy to use and stays put well throughout the day. A total winner in my books.
Revlon Colorburst Matte Balms - £7.99 in Boots
A fairly new addition to the makeup ranks, but worthy of a position in the top ten. I would go as far to say these are my favourite matte formula lipsticks on the market, not something I'll say lightly! I love the shades Elusive and Standout, and how they don't feel at all drying on the lips.
Soap and Glory Archery Brow Tint and Pencil - £10.00 in Boots
You guys know I'm obsessed with this at the moment. The tint end is perfect for drawing in brow hairs where mine are sparse, and the waxy, taupe toned pencil adds definition without making my brows look drawn on, or orangey. Love this.
Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation - £6.99 in Superdrug
One of my favourite foundations on the market, it's a medium but buildable coverage foundation, with a satin/matte finish. It doesn't feel heavy or cakey, and the shade is a perfect match for my skin. The only thing I don't like is the scent, but that's not as overpowering as the scent of Revlon Nearly Naked, so it wins as far as I'm concerned.
Maybelline Instant Eye Eraser Concealer - £7.99 in Boots
My current concealer of choice. Great for concealing late nights, unexplainable face redness, scars and spots. Perfect. The sponge is kinda annoying but I've gotten over it cause I love the product inside. This blends out really well, medium coverage and has great staying power.
Bourjois Healthy Balance Powder - £8.99 in Boots
Pricier than some drugstore powders, but in my humble opinion, it's the best. Mattifies the skin without looking cakey, and adds a hint of buildable coverage too. I'm on my second one of these, it's great.
Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick in Let's Get Naked - £6.49 in Superdrug
My favourite nude lipstick from the highstreet. Nude with peachy undertones, a super soft formula and it stays on a good 5/6 hours before it needs touch ups!
Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss in Berry Allure - £6.99 in Boots
A super pretty, muted berry toned, non sticky lipgloss. This lives in the bottom of my handbag and I wear it all the time, it's such a gorgeous colour, it looks great alone or on top of pinky or plumy lipsticks.
Essie Nail Polishes - £7.99 in Boots
Essie polishes are hands down my favourite nail polishes on the market, I'm addicted to them. They have literally every colour under the sun, the formulas are glossy and opaque in one coat, and they have a wide, flat brush that makes application a dream. Some of my favourite shades are Watermelon, After School Boy Blazer, & Orange it's Obvious.
& Other Stories Artist Brush - £7.00 in & Other Stories
A MAC 217 Dupe for less than half the price. A fluffy, natural bristle eye blending brush, I use this every day I wear makeup.
What are your top picks for under £10?
God, I had my hands on the Bourjois powder today and I didn't end up getting it! Now I wish I had! Next time, because I hear so many good things about it!Oh man, I hear you on the foundation scent. I know it fades eventually but on application it's just...so strong. I'm so glad someone else has mentioned this, I really thought it was just me who didn't like it, haha!BrodieJay.com
