I’m having a lot of fun testing out drugstore makeup products and thanks to my coupon skillz, I can get them for quite cheap. But some are a great bargain on their own, too. Here are some of my favorite products I’ve tried in the last few weeks that I consider to be worth every penny (but you should still try to find a coupon anyway!)
I find it hard to express just how much I love the CoverGirl Liquiline Blast eye liners. They go on sooo smooth and easy, and the color is vibrant. It stays on really well too. It’s a great buy! I also love the Smoky Shadow Blast in Onyx Smoke. Even if it didn’t include the black part, I’d buy it just for the white part. It’s a great highlighter for the eyelids, and also acts as a primer for the rest of your shadow. These products all retail at the drugstore for $8-ish, but CoverGirl is constantly BOGO 50% off and there are usually coupons in the P&G Brand Saver insert every month! I got mine at CVS as a part of an ECB deal plus earned CVS Beauty Club benefits. Woot! Here’s an eye look I created using the products pictured above:
Next up: a brand that has always been known for value: Wet ‘n Wild.
Wet ‘n Wild Silk Finish lipstick is SUCH a good bargain. It retails for 99 cents, but I have twice recently gotten it on sale for 69 cents! Crazy! I love the way it feels on and it wears REALLY well. I really can’t believe they sell it for 99 cents! I am similarly enamored with the Coloricon blush. Only $2.99, and it is very pigmented so a little goes a long way. And it stays on my face all day. I love it! Here’s a look I used these two products on:
Finally- my new true love, Physician’s Formula.
These are the most expensive products of the lot, retailing for about $11.95 each. BUT, I bought them at Rite Aid when they were buy one, get one FREE, and each package had a $2 off coupon on it! So I got them both for $7.95 which was the DEAL OF THE CENTURY! If I wanted to do a neutral look every day (and I do the majority of the time), I would wear these products every day for the rest of my life. The Nude Eyes shadow palette has 9 colors, everything you’ll ever need to create great smoky, neutral looks. And the Kohl Kajal liner? I’m in love with it! It goes on sooo smooth and the three colors – champagne, pewter, and black, are perfect to blend together or use alone. They’re waterproof, too. Woot! Here’s an eye look I created with these products:
