The i heart drugstore makeup tag is really popular nowadays so i figured i'd do one. This tag only contain drugstore or lower end products that you can get from CVS, Ulta, Rite Aid, or Target.
1. What is your favorite drugstore makeup brand?
I'd say nyx. Because nyx is a great quality brand but really really inexpensive. You can find nyx very easily, and affordable. My favorite product is the jumbo eye pencil and the lipstick.
2. What are your favorite face, cheek, and lip products?
For drugstore face products, i'd say revlon, the revlon colorstay 24hrs foundation in particular. For cheeks, i've heard a lot of great things about nyx cream blush, but i dont have any of them, so i dont know. I'm trying to stick with mac and nars, because i have an overwhelming obsession for blushes and i dont know why, i have too much already and keep getting more, so i feel like with higher end blushes i'd be able to control myself more because they're quite expensive. For lip i think the maybelline color sensation lipstick (US version), they are so creamy, smells really good and most of them are very opaque.
3. Least favorite products?
Alright, i purchased this product around 2 weeks ago. I've heard a lot of great things about it, it's definitely most people favorite but i just dont really like it, but i dont hate it as well. It is the ELF Studio Line Blush in the color Twinkle Pink. I dont want to judge the whole blush line because of this one particular color, so i might try some different shades. What i dont like about it is, it's ashy, chalky, powdery and it has too much shimmers, or more likely, glitters. The color payoff is not what i expected to get, and it's kinda sheer.
4. What is the best makeup bargain?
If it means by price and quality, i'd say ELF. Only a dollar for the essential line, $3.00 for the studio line. I really really like their $1.00 eye brushes, i love the bronzer and the studio line tinted moisturizer. I feel like if you choose correctly, most of ELF products are really good with only a dollar or three.
5. What is your favorite underdog product? (Something you love that often gets overlooked)
I'd say the Nyx HD concealer. Lots and lots of people sometimes underestimates he nyx hd line because they feel like the make up for ever is way better. I really really love the HD concealer, i love the coverage, how it looks on my skin, it doesnt look cakey but also gives a full coverage. This concealer makes me want to buy the HD foundation, but then again i already have the make up for ever, and i'm trying to cut back on foundation, lipstick and blushes. I have a weird obsession with those three kind of products.
6. A drugstore products that is overpriced?
I'm a 100% agree with lindsey (beautybaby44), Physicians Formula is way too overpriced for a drugstore brand. Most of their products are around $15 - $20, and of course it doubles up when you shipped it to indonesia. The happy booster blush is like $12.00, add $8.00 more, you'll get a mac blush.
7. Show your best drugstore dupe(s)
I'm still trying to gather more dupes which i will post later this month or january. But here's some of them:
* Lipstick (MAC)
- Mac Angel - ELF essential in Classy
- Mac Rebel - Wet n Wild Megalast in Sugar Plum Fairy
- Mac Russian Red - Rimmel Red Fever
- Mac Brave - Nyx Thalia
