A collegiette life is a not an easy one. From partying all night to cramming for tests, we live a stressful and busy life. To keep up with our busy schedules, we need makeup that is quick, easy, and cheap. Luckily, I have dug through the drugstore and curated five collegiate makeup essentials that will make your life easier.
1. Rimmel BB Cream
I have previously mentioned this BB cream on Cheap Makeup Picks for Spring. This product is making it onto this list also for good reason. BB cream itself is quick and easy to apply, but this BB cream by Rimmel is long wearing and one of the best BB creams from the drugstore. This product will fit into your routine perfectly because it can be applied with your fingers, evens out skin tone, conceals, and mattifies your skin. It also contains 20 SPF which is essential when walking outside during the day.
2. Maybelline Color Tattoo in Barely Branded
All the Maybelline Color Tattoos are amazing, but this particular shade is perfect for everyday wear. It is a light champagne color that works on a variety of skin tones. It is long lasting and will not crease no matter what. This multipurpose shade can be applied all over the eyelid for a quick eye look or used sparingly around the inner corner and browbone to highlight and brighten the eye.
3. Maybelline Dark Circle Eraser Brightener
Even if you don’t have the darkest circles, the Maybelline Dark Circle Eraser Brightener is amazing because it is multipurpose. It is easy to blend in with your fingers which makes it perfect for highlighting under face powder. Not only can you use the brightener for dark circles, but applying it onto your cheekbones and Cupid’s bow you can bring out the features of your face.
4. EOS Lip Balm
Eos Lip balms come in a variety of flavors and finishes making it my number one lip balm. Sure you can carry around your ordinary chapstick, but how cute is the shape of the EOS lip balm? This lip balm keeps your lips super soft which is perfect for that first date kiss. Also for the conscious makeup lover, EOS Lip balms are 100% natural.
5. Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blush in Pink Frosting
Pink is a classic shade that will go with any makeup look you choose to sport for the day. The texture of this particular blush is airy and creamy. This makes it fool proof to apply and blend. It stays all day and gives a healthy look to the skin which never goes out of style.
With all these essentials you’ll be rocking the fountain area! Good luck collegiettes!
