If you're anything like me, your idea of a fun Sunday is going to the nearest Ulta and testing, trying out and buying new makeup. I get so excited when I see that my favorite YouTube beauty vloggers uploaded a new video testing out new foundations, concealers, and more. I do love makeup, but I don't love spending a lot on it. I've learned over the years that while sometimes it is worth the extra money to get some holy grail products, you can also find some great holy grail products that won't break the bank and work just as well, or even better.
This list is just some of the amazing drugstore products I've found, and I'm sure there's a ton more out there I have yet to discover, so please go discover some! I hope that this article inspires all of you beauty guru's to go and search through your local Ulta or drugstore to find some amazing products that you can buy with the change in your wallet!
1) L'Oreal Infallible Pro-Matte Foundation
This foundation is amazing! I have a weird dry/oily combo skin on my face, depending on the day, and this is the best foundation I have ever tried. It makes my face look smooth and matte all day and is so lightweight but also full coverage! I think that this foundation is a perfect 10 and it is currently cheapest at Walmart for $10.97 here.
2) Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer
3) FLOWER Powder Up Finishing Powder
You don't have to use powder to set and finish off your face makeup, but if you do, I highly recommend this one! I heard about this powder from my favorite YouTube vlogger (go check out her page here!). This powder is amazing for dusting over your foundation and concealer just to get that smooth and satin finish. There is a ton of product in this package, and you can get it from Walmart for $9.98 here.4) Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lip Color
This stuff is amazing. It has beautiful packaging, lasts forever, stays matte, and so cheap! And by cheap, I mean yes there is cheaper lip products you can find but this stuff is the real deal. It's $8.99 at Ulta, but if you can find an online coupon or wait for a sale, you can get one of these gems for even cheaper!
5) Makeup Revolution "The Matte Blush"
6) Biore Ultra Deep Cleansing Pore Strips
7) Real Techniques Makeup Brushes and Sponge
I hope this post gave each of you a little makeup inspiration and a new sense of adventure to go out and find your own cheap holy grail products. While I don't mind spending a little more on some amazing products sometimes, you can usually find some pretty cheap dupes for the expensive products. Remember, looking good doesn't always require putting a hole in your wallet!
