Most, if not all of my makeup is from the drug store, and if I'm honest, the only high-end makeup I own was probably a gift. My makeup usage is typically light, which doesn't necessarily require me to invest in high-end products. Don't get me wrong; there is absolutely nothing wrong with choosing something at Sephora instead of Target. However, that's not to say you won't find something just as great at your local drug store. Here are eleven cosmetics products I use, that I promise you, you'll love too.

1. Primer 

For the past several months I've been using, Maybelline's Master Prime: Blur and Smooth and can I just say, If you need something to blur and even skin-tone, this is the one.

2. Foundation 

I won't even lie, finding the right foundation at a drug store, is always hard. I've gone through several different brands and can finally say I found the one. Maybelline's Dream Satin Liquid Foundation is incredibly light and great for a full-coverage.

3. Concealer 

Concealer saves me every time by hiding my restless baggy eyes. My current favorite pick up is L'Oreal's True Match, Super-Blendable Concealer.

4. Brow Pencil 

The BEST eyebrow pencil I've ever used has to be Elf's Ultra Precise Brow Pencil.

5. Blush 

My daily makeup routine always consist of blush, I've always felt like it gives your cheeks a natural pop. For as longest I can remember I've stayed loyal to Covergirl's Cheekers Blush.

6. Bronzer 

Bronzer is another item in my daily makeup routine. I love applying Covergirl's Cheekers Bronzer for a sun-kissed look.

7. Highlighter 

Highlighter has to be one of my favorite cosmetic products in general. However, I only apply highlighter for a night out/special occasions, but even if there are many options, I've currently keep choosing Milani's Stellar Lights Highlighter Palette.

8. Mascara 

Mascara = Maybelline. A minor bias opinion, but I truly think Maybelline has the best mascaras.

9. Lipstick

I own about a bag full of lipsticks, all from different brands, however, my current favorite lipstick is Rimmel's Stay Matte Liquid Lip Colour, in the shade, Fire Starter (the best red lipstick I've ever owned).

10. Setting Spray 

Nyx Setting Spray is the best way to achieve a matte look.

11. Face Mask

The best way to end your day is to refresh your face with a new face mask, I've currently been using L'Oreal's Detox & Brighten Clay Mask, and highly recommend it!

I am definitely not a makeup expert, but I have personally used all these products and highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for something new, or something within a budget.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
