Hey ladies! I went to get some make-up today. I walked right in the store and walked right back out without anything! There were too many choices! I get some of my make-up from the mall, but I really can only afford a few things and will be shopping at depatment stores.
I love Este Lauders Bi facial eye make up remover is my all time fav and although its almost 30 bucks I can't live without it.
What are some of your cheap favorites and the products you simply could not live without?

    I recently discovered Makeup Forever's powder foundation. It is the best I've ever tried.

    Also recently discovered Clinique's 24 hour mascara. I have blond but very long eyelashes, so when I blink my mascara smudges. No smudges with this!

    I buy a combo of things, I just picked up clear mascara for $4 to help shape my brows, and a brow pencil with a spoolie on the end so I can properly define my eyebrows.
    I cannot live without my primer, without the primer the rest of the make up...not so great!
    I love make up, when I put it on, it's got to be good ;)
    I love eye primers when I wear my bright and bold eye make up :)

    I really like the bare essentials (light) because I'm fair complected. I would not like my face feeling like its plastered so I personally prefer the lightness of the bare essentials.

    For eye shadow...I'm in love with the Maybelline 24 hr color tattoo....the colors really accentuate the eyes and the color stays.

    I'm not too fussy about blush.

    Love Loreal Paris Hip Color Presso lip gloss...two shades in one.

    I also like CoverGirl Last Blast...great at giving a full effect of the lashes.

    Not fussy about eyeliner either....I find that Wet and Wild works pretty good...sometimes I go with Avon

    Fair skin is gorgeous. Don't think that!
    I don't wear much. A good moisturizer with sunscreen. I like Almays loose powder in translucent because I'm well... Translucent. Chapstick. Some mascara. I always get new brands because there's always some fancy new one that curls or thickens. Gotta try them ya know.

    Don't wear make-up myself any more, except for very special occasions, but my one staple used to be Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse. I still have a tub for those special events and would buy another if it ran out.

    I only wear mineral makeup from this hippie-type company in Austin, Tx.

    It's called Everyday Minerals and is so incredibly affordable and the only thing I've ever used that actually looks good (I'm very fair-skinned, but on the pinker side).

    The most expensive thing I buy is a Neutrogena moisturizer which is like $15.. but one container lasts me for like ever..

    Unfortunately, I can't wear cheap makeup without my skin breaking out bigtime. I wear exclusively Clinique. I love it. Good stuff.

    I use the superbalanced foundation with pressed powder.

    Burt Bees Tinted Lip Balm. It's $7 but it's basically lip stick that moisturizes like Burt Bees chap stick. AWESOME.

    Revlon Colorstay is my go to foundation. Revlon liquid and pencil eyeliners are pretty good too. Maybelline Great Lash is a good simple mascara. The Love and Beauty line at Forever 21 makes good lipliners.

    Blinc Kiss Me mascara--pricy, but it's the only one I've ever found (and I've tried 'em all) that doesn't give me raccoon eyes.

    Prestige Waterproof or Total Intensity eyeliner--inexpensive drugstore brand, and awesome.

    Urban Decay eyeshadow primer really does make eye makeup stay on all day, and the tube lasts for ages because you use so little.

    Quote for truth!

    I'm acutally really liking the Covergirl Naturals foundation (the one with those Taylor Swift commercials) . My favourite is Make Up Forever, but it is EXPENSIVE, and right now that's just not on my priority list.
