FALL 2019 BEST DRUGSTORE MAKEUP
Okay – just a reminder that this is part 2 [read part 1 HERE]! I did the first part last week and I have been so excited about this post! I love makeup so much– and I seriously enjoy finding drugstore products that outperform higher end products. I get a lot of products in PR and I also order quite a bit from Walmart online when I hear someone raving about them so I literally am trying new things all of the time! I split it into two posts bc I didn’t want to overwhelm you all but todays is the final recap on the best drugstore makeup.
#1. L’OREAL INFALLIBLE 24HR FRESHWEAR FOUNDATION || Okay, I mentioned this before & I’m writing a full thing on it because this foundation is one that I think many people will like because its such a unique formula. The name says it all “fresh wear” – it truly is – it is not thick or super duper full coverage but it has a nice, natural feel & look and it is long wearing. Also – if you need coverage you can build it up!
#2. L’OREAL INFALLIBLE WATERPROOF CONCEALER || This concealer is SO SO SO bomb! Seriously – for the price – dang! It says “more than concealer” on the bottle and I can attest! I got the shades in PR and ended up giving them to my friends and family because I wanted everyone to experience how good it is! My aunt who is 76 was here and I did her makeup and used this under her eyes and it looked SO beautiful on her. I am so impressed with L’Oreal lately! You can use this to brighten you under eyes and cover dark circles- and it wears well which is very important to me.
#3. COVERGIRL ADVANCED RADIANCE POWDER || I saw this on Tati’s YT channel and she always uses it to brighten up under her eyes so I finally caved. I saw her use it a lot over a year long period so I knew it had to be good. Anyway, I find myself using this quite a bit – and in random situations. Like, to brighten up certain areas or to touch up areas during the day.
#4. COTY AIRPSPUN || I’ve written about this before and I still stand beside this powder! And I’m crazy and like the smell, lol! If you are not wanting to break the bank with a setting powder TRY THIS! I really do think this is hyped up for good reasoning.
#5. NYX MATTE LINER || This is $4!! I’ve been using this for years on and off! Its nice & black and wears all day and remains black! The matte formula seems to be a lot better than the other options though! Be warned!🤷🏻♀️💓
#6. LASH PARADISE MASCARA || There are a lot of drugstore mascaras I like to be honest! I wear lash extensions so I don’t need much mascara really but I would definitely recommend this one. That probably does not mean too much because I can think of 4 others at Walmart that I really like – I feel like they have a lot of good ones! But I am linking the Duo for the primer & mascara bc it truly is a game changer! I have both of these and before lash extensions I always raved about L’Oreal’s lash primers – they are amazing! BUT if you have tried Lash Paradise and didn’t like it – try THIS one by L’Oreal. Love the packing and the way the wand can move to get tricky lashes BUT I also love the way it makes my real lashes look!
#7. ELF PORELESS PUTTY || I won’t say much lol – you guys are probably tired of hearing me talk about this product but OH EM GEE! I love it! Like, this is what I brought to Jackson Hole with me because this primer is so good. I tell anyone who will listen to try it – it is so good!
Thanks to Walmart for sponsoring todays post.
What do you personally think is the best drugstore makeup? Let me know in a comment below!
Hello EmIly Ann,
I follow your Blog and i was browsing the web this morning and saw an advertISEMENT BY A MAJOR NATIONAL BRAND USING YOUR PIC. DO YOU SPONSOR ANY MAJOR NATIONAL BRANDS?
I feel that if you do not have a relationship with this company, they should not be using your photo in their ads.
Just curious.
Also, i could not find a way to contact you privately VersUs leaving a public comment. Please deleTe my comment Once you have read it.
Kindly,
J. Miller
What was the brand? Can you email me a picture or screenshot/
I love the white sweater with the gold buttons. Where did you get it?
Could you please share where you got your whIte sweater with the gold buttons and your blue sweater with the ruffle? 🤷♀️ ThaNks so much! 🥰
Zara!
Thank you for sharing. I have the setting powder in my cart but not sure about getting it. I love the Kylie one but maybe I’ll give this one a try 🙂
How do you apply your primer? With your fingers or a spoNge? Do you pat it or rub it in like a lotion or a cream?
Thanks!
Pam
I use my fingers!
I live these posts of drugstore finds. I started using the l’oreal Concealer based on your earlier recommendation and love it just as much as the Tarte. Thanks for including affordable recommendations in your posts.

Love these drug store blog posts! Would love to see a beauty edition like face masks, serum, etc. Thank you for the recommendations, can’t wait to try them out!-xO
