I think I'm starting to love my fitME foundation n concealer more than my MAC mineralized foundation.. (which I've been obsessed with for years n have repurchased serveral times AND.get tons of compliments when I wear it)
what are your low budget beauty finds. ;-). (compare to high end)

I would say my jordana Best lash extreme volumizing mascara has been my tops lately compared to all my other high end brand mascaras.I think it says a lot about how far cosmetics have come in quality lately the business is booming more then ever and the competition is on fire.

I love my loreal true match compact and powder, also I'm in love with some wet and wild lipsticks. I've tried the higher end of cosmetics like MAC and benefit but the lower budget cosmetics work as good if not better. Kinda goes too show that all it is..is a brand. (Obviously)!! But both are great.

Alma, I was going to try jordana mascara last wk because I couldn't find a single tube of mascara in my purse and I didn't have anything else on n felt like a hag.. lol. so I just wanted to freshen up with moisturizer, mascara n gloss. but no mascara to be found!!. I went to walgreens n to get something cheap but ended up with a $2 wet n wild mascara (it was cheapest), which wasn't bad actually.. the only thing I don't like about it is that it was too wet. so it was gettin a bit messy. definitely have to take your time with it but it left my lashes looking glossy which I loved..

@Raquel. are you referring to that CG one, I think its called flamed or something?.
I wanted to love nearly naked but it broke me out. I'm glad it works for you!!..

I love the fitme liquid forreal. early this morning the security guard aty job said I look "all dewy.and fabulous". lol..

@jasmine..I'm so jealous because I'm trying to love wet n wild lippies but they aren't working for me.. I can wear certain shades. ut then I get stains or its sticky. I'm like, Eww. lol. but the colors or so fab I'm going to try to make it work, give it another shot!.
I actually really like the finish on MAC n Clinique lipsticks. but I'm learning to work with more drugstore lipsticks.

I have no comparisons to high end cosmetics cuz I've only ever bought "low end" but I've recently found Jordana...at walgreens btw... & elf & I'm liking them both

Naomi it's a bummer you couldn't find it and I do agree that wet and wild mascara being to wet it wasn't my cup of tea.@Diana I usually find jordana at walgreens  :-)

I think wet n wild and nyx are great I love there lippies and I have every color I also love nyx liners and there blush but I do loveee my mac too.

Wet n wild eyeshadows are a real steal. The trios are like $3 and the 8 pan palettes are about $5-$6. They have a soft butteriness and full pigmentation comparable to urban decay. Large shade selection too! Love em.

I also adore Revlon's foundations, there is something for every skin type and colour. Best of the drugstore. :)

I'm honestly not a HUGE fan of drugstore cosmetics. They usually come up short for me. I do however have a few favorites. I like Rimmel's retractable eye pencil. I have A LOT of Wet n Wild's matte lipsticks.

@ bree do they have wet and wild matte lipsticks at Walgreens?

Oct 28, 2013

I don't know if Walgreens has the WnW matte lippies, I get mine at Rite Aid. My Rite Aid has a very limited Wet and Wild line so I would imagine anywhere that carries it would have the lipsticks.

Okay, thanks. good thing I have riteaid Walgreen, and cvs near me. my mission of the day lol(:

@Naomi really? I never have that problem but I guess it's not a good thing for youu , I'll have to try the finish from MAC :)

Maybelline's Fit Me foundation stick. Perfect color match which is shocker for me considering it's a drugstore brand. I have a mix of both low and high-end. I don't discriminate. If it doesn't work for me regardless of price point I take it straight back or give it away to someone who can use it.

@Traci, I must say that I do love nyx products too.. esp the lip liners.. I'm loving this one called blackberry right now. its actually blk and I love it!..

@jasmine, I'm really going to work on WnW.. ;-)
but as far as the finish goes. for instance Revlon berry haute was supp to b the same as riri boy from rihanna mac summer line. I could see it was the same but it just didn't look or feel as good. I'm going to end up mixing it with something else..

Shelley. what color are you in foundation stick?.
I'm a 320 in the liquid bit havent found a 320 stick. I'm usually dry but needed something for really hot summer days.

Oct 28, 2013

Shelley W.

@Naomi...I'm a #340 in the stick. And then I top it off with either my Bobbi Brown Retouching powder in peach or Hourglass Ambient Lighting powder in dim light. No breakouts of any kind with it.

Naomi S.

Gotcha. that looks like it should match. (from what I rem). but worried it just looks that way but may come off darker.. I'm won't b buying it until it warms up again. maybe they'll come out with more shades.
