I can't afford anything at Sephora, and can only buy make up from Walmart, CVS, and Rite-aid. I was wondering if you guys ever thought of posting an article on drug store make up, and what the best or favorites are?

Foundation: Revlon Colorstay Whipped

Concealer: Hard Candy Glamoflauge - full coverage (Walmart only)

Blush: Elf (Target only), Milani (Target only),

Highlighter: physicians Formula, Hard Candy

Lipstick: Revlon, and Cover Girl lipsticks.

These are some of my favorites. I didn't put colors because there are so many for you to choose from.

Oh and Hard Candy Fox in a Box blush is great too!!

There are so many great products at the drugstore that are really comparable to high-end and prestige cosmetics. I would suggest checking out Temptalia's dupe list if there is an expensive product you wanna try out, and see if there's a cheaper alternative. Also, nouveaucheap.blogspot.com has great reviews of drugstore products and a ton of links to great coupons so you can get even more for your money. Hope this helps!

I love the Nuance by Salma Hayek makeup line. its only available at CVS. I think its one of the most underrated brands. I also love Milani, and Physicians Formula

also ELF has some great stuff, not everything from their line is great but there are some real gems I must say, also Wet N Wild for the price, the eyeshadows are amazing I've been using that brand since Jr high and still like it!

I hiiighly recommend the Maybelline Color Tattoos. They're all awesome, super pigmented, and they don't crease! The studio line from Elf is really good too, that's the stuff that's all $3

Foundation ~ Revlon Colorstay (liquid; comes in formulas for combination/oily and normal/dry skins), Maybelline Fit Me

Eyeshadows ~ The Revlon quads seem fairly decent. And another rec for the Maybelline Color Tattoos.

Eyeliner ~ Prestige Total Intensity for pencil eyeliner (or Milani). wet'n'wild for liquid. Maybelline for gel/cream.

Mascara ~ Revlon Photoready 3D Volume is my HG mascara. I also like L'Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black, and Maybelline Great Lash was my go-to for a long time. I think a few on here have also praised Prestige My Biggest Lashes.

Pressed or Loose Powder ~ NYC Smooth Skin

Bronzer ~ Physicans Formula has a pretty good selection. NYC Sunny is supposed to be pretty good, too.

Blush ~ I think Rimmel has some decent blushes? Or you could check out e.l.f.'s Studio blushes, if you can get them locally.

Lipsticks ~ Revlon!

Lipglosses ~ If you can find NYX at a drugstore, there you go! (Otherwise, if you live near an Ulta, they're there as well.)

Some of the Milani products are at K-Mart.

Check out the Sephora brand at Sephora, most of the Sephora brands are the same price as some drugstore brands & every week they have a sale. Earlier today, i saw Kat Von D eyeliner & mascara on sale for $8 and the Sephora brands are good quality, my favorites are the waterproof eyeliner & mascara $12
