Affordable makeup must haves!!

#beautyreview #lemon8challenge *Descriptions down below by category for easy navigation!🥰

My skin tone for reference is neutral undertone and falls into the light category during the winter and a light/medium during the summer.

Foundation:

- Loreal infallible: 9/10 I love the coverage it gives! I only used it a couple times but I plan to use this during the fall and winter months or when I am not in the heat since I’m not into heavy face makeup when it’s hot. I am shade 114 and layers well with the baby skin primer.

-Tower 28 sunny days: 10/10

I love the lightweight coverage when I use the one size setting spray it does last a long time. I do skin care rather than a primer. Beautiful coverage and feels light on my skin.

-Elf halo glow: 10/10

This is what I wear all summer long more during the day time. It’s very lightweight, hard to notice if it’s melting off my face in the heat because it is very glowy( which I like) same with tower 28 I do not use a primer with this.

Eye makeup:

- Naked 2 basics: 10/10:

I use the brown shade as an eyeliner. The other colors I use as a single base color and then I put highlight on the inner corner.

- MILK Kush: 10/10:

this is a tubing mascara. I have long lashes the do turn up and this holds them up all day so I don’t have to use a curler. Straight eye lash girlies may differ.

-Ulta Beauty Collection eyeliner: 7/10:

gets the job done I get the metallic moss color because I have hazel eyes and makes them more green. But I have the purple one as well ( metallic raisin) this helps lighten my eye color and bring out the brown and amber hues.

-Rare beauty brow duo: 10/10

I have sparse brows so this fills them in nicely.

-Benefit brow gel: 10/10

Holds my brows in place all day! Love her!

-Benefit brow pencil: 10/10: fill in some of the spaces in my brows. I use the brush at the end to fluff my brows.

- Tarte maracuja color corrector: 8/10 used it once, and I don’t hate it. I have some dark circles and this helps brighten my under eyes. I was given peachy pink due to my mix colored veins and my fair/light skin tone.

L’Oréal Infallible concealer: 7/10

it’s on me to figure out how to not make it separate under my eyes but otherwise great coverage. I went 1-2 shades lighter for brightening purposes. ( shade: ivory)

Face makeup: ( blush/bronzer/ highlight):

- Blushes:

- elf camo blush: 10/10

Dupe for the rare beauty one ( I love the rare beauty one as well and use it often but for more affordability, elf camo comes in first place).

-Milani baked blush: 10/10:

Shade luminoso, I use this whether it’s a full face or something lighter for summer I layer her.

-Bronzers:

- pixi on the glow: 10/10:

Since I have neutral undertones I went for their darkest shade because it works best for me! The one below is too warm for me and I wanted a more contour/bronze look.

-elf bronzer/contour 10/10:

I use shade 2 for a contoured look since it’s a bit of a cooler tone so if I want accentuate my features I use this or to add a little more color under the pixi bronzer.

-Highlight:

-Rare Beauty highlight: enlighten 10/10:

I love the glow it gives me when I do full glam. I don’t use highlight when I do my summer/lightweight makeup, the glow is enough from the skin prep and highlight.

Honorable mention!!!!:

- Tarte creaseless corrector(eye makeup section)^

- elf halo glow setting powder: 10/10: love this so much leaves a pretty glow on my face the L’Oréal foundation gives me a matte finish so this adds pretty glowy finish like a healthy skin glow.

... Read moreWhen it comes to budget-friendly makeup, it's essential to know what products offer both quality and value. Many consumers are seeking options that don’t sacrifice performance for price. Brands like L'Oréal and e.l.f. have been noted for their effective formulations at under $15, making them staples in many makeup bags. For foundations, try L'Oréal Infallible for its impressive coverage, or e.l.f.'s Halo Glow for a radiant finish. Eye makeup also deserves attention; e.l.f.'s Camo Concealer can hide imperfections while remaining lightweight. Additionally, mascara has transformative power, with products like MILK Kush offering volume without clumping. Remember, the best beauty routines also include skin prep. Proper moisturization ensures that even the most affordable products can perform exceptionally well. Consider incorporating a good primer that suits your skin type. Maintaining a focus on skin health often leads to the best makeup results. Moreover, with the rise of social media, consumers are increasingly looking for reliable reviews from peers before making purchases. Sharing your own experiences with these affordable must-haves can greatly benefit a community that values both financial sense and beauty enhancement.
