I won't say that I'm a makeup snob, persay. I definitely went through a phase that if it didn't come from Sephora, it didn't belond in my caboodle. I'm not sure where I got this attitude, since it's not like I've always been able to afford higher end cosmetics. Recently though, I've been stumbling upon some pretty amazing drug store finds and I want to share with you my all-stars!
Rimmel Stay Matte foundation: This stuff packs a powerful punch for a $5 tube - so powerful in fact that I don't even use it as a foundation! I actually take a brush and apply it lightly as a concealer over blemishes and discolorations! It blends beautifully and lasts all day.
NYX Powder Blush: If you've ever complimented my rosy glow (because, ya know, that happens. Never. I digress.) chances are I'm wearing the blush contained in this little cube. The shades are highly pigmented and gives a seamless flush.
Revlon Brow Fantasy: Guys, this stuff is maybe my favorite thing on earth. Even more than vanilla protein powder. Even more than a gift card to TJ Maxx! One end is a brow pencil, one is a tinted gel with brush to keep your window frames in check. Seriously, no makeup on but a smidge of eyebrow tamer and I don't look completely ridiculous! ...Okay, maybe I look a little ridiculous, but my brows are on-point.
Rimmel ProvocaLips: Not a lipstick lover? Move along. But if you're a fan of a long lasting, non-drying hue that can be sweet and demure or bold and sexy look no further. It definitely lasts longer than it's L'Oreal liquid lipstick counterpart and it doesn't have the feathering tendencies that so many "long lasting" lip colors do.
