We all know makeup can be expensive. As collegiettes on a tight budget, you can find some hidden gems at drugstores! I hope you enjoy some of my best drugstore finds.
Foundation
- Revlon Colorstay Foundation, $10.39
- I like it because it’s lightweight and is formulated with SPF. It can be used by all skin types and it won’t clog your pores. The buildable coverage gives your face a fresh natural finish.

Bronzer
- Mark Bronzer, $12.50
- The Mark Pro Bronzer gives you a gorgeous glow because it has a slight shimmer to it. It comes in a compact with a mirror and brush applicator.

- Rimmel London Natural Bronzer, $5

- The Rimmel London Natural Bronzer is a great inexpensive matte bronzer, it is highly pigmented and gives you a believable faux tan in seconds.
Blush
- Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blush, $7.99
- This is the new powder-gel blush from Maybelline. It’s easy to apply and it gives your cheeks a burst of color. Peach Satin is a pretty color for summer.

Eye Shadow
- NYX Eyeshadow Trio, $7
- I absolutely love these eyeshadow trios. The colors are rich and long lasting. The trio combinations complement each other and blend smoothly. NYX also offers eyeshadow singles which are great too.

Eyeliner
- Loreal Felt Tip Liner, $6.50
- This is the easiest liquid eyeliner to apply. The felt tip liner is flexible and easily glides onto your lids. You can’t go wrong with this liner.

Lipgloss
