Two things in life I can be sure of. If there is a new make-up product on the market, I am for sure the first in line to try and if it’s less than £10 I probably already have it. I love makeup on a budget!
As far back as I can remember I have LOVED any sort of beauty product. From the days of the coloured hair mascara, to the rollerball Lipgloss, you name it, I’ve had it. And I’ve probably had it in several colours too.
But nowadays I stay clear of the hair mascara and aim for the more sophisticated products.
However, one thing’s for sure I like my value for money, I love the products you come across that are AMAZING and best of all they’re usually from the high street.
Here are a few of my favourite makeup on a budget products and why.
1.Fit me Foundation by Maybelline
Wowza, this foundation. I’m going to go out on a limb here and compare it to some of the greats. I’m talking its on par with Mac Studio Fix.
Full coverage yet light on the skin, minimizing pores and reducing shine this little beauty lasts all day with minimal touch-ups and comes in a range of over 30 different shades.
All for less than £7, my shade is 220.
2.Loreal Paris Infalliable shaping stick
Hey, its 2018 if you’re yet to contour, what have you been doing?
This is by far my favourite contouring product I am yet to come across, it has an ultra-creamy formula and can be used as a complete foundation or as a contouring stick which is what I use it for.
I apply just under my cheekbones and along my hairline/jawline and blend for that super slimming make up look.
This little gem is £8.99 and I swear by the ‘Toffee Caramel’ shade.
3.Barry M Nail polish
I really love the fact I am still using the same brand of nail polishes that I was ten years ago, and to be honest they just get better! As well as being completely cruelty free, this range of polishes offer every colour you could imagine. With the classic nail paint right through to the glitter there is a nail polish for every occasion imaginable.
They’re usually priced under the £6 mark and often fall into the 3 for 2 categories, so why just have one when you can treat yourself and your nails to three?
4.Revolution conceal and define concealer
Okay, I know I am probably repeating myself here, but this is my absolute favourite new product I have discovered this year.
Not only does this product cover blemishes it evens out skin tone and counteracts any of those pesky dark circles.
All for less than £5.
5.Rimmel Exaggerate lip liner
This my friends, is the bargain of the century.
With ten shades to choose from, from nude right through to the perfect red. It defines and frames your lips like the pros with no need for filler. Its easy to apply and leaves your lips feeling super soft. Apply a lipstick/gloss over the top and you’re good to go!
From £3.99 my favourite is the dreamy Eastend Snob.
