Inexpensive, ladies:) I'm looking for a toner, Bb cream, lip tint, [cream] shadows, mascara, and eye liner! Any recommendations I will put into consideration! Thanks so much, nobody says it better than Beautylish!
Toner: You can make strong (preferably organic) green tea and mix in organic apple cider vinegar. You can dissolve aspirin in Witch Hazel for a cheap, but effective BHA.
Lip: Burt's Bees make good and pigmented tinted lip balm.
Shadow: Maybelline Color Tattoo or Loreal Infallible (hybrid cream/shadow).
Liner: Milani pencils
Mascara: Max Factor
If you want the real deal BB cream, prettyandcute.com has affordable asian bb creams that are awesome for lighter skin tones (even my skin is too dark for most Asian bb creams). If you want the American version, which is basically tinted moisturizer, I recommend Garnier if your skin is on the dry skin. Cream eyeshadow - try Maybelline 24 hour eye tattoo. It seriously lasts as long as a MAC Paint pot & comes in a bunch of fun colors. Great for an easy & cheap eye look. I also recommended Maybelline's gel eyeliner as well. The packaging is great so the eyeliner doesn't dry out, which is a common problem for gel eyeliners. Mascara - maybelline falsies is great if you want length. My fav combo for length and separation is loreal million lashes for length and separation and loreal voluminous for some volume :)
