Here's How To Buy A Full Face of Makeup For $25

Buying makeup and researching makeup brands has become one of my hobbies. I watch YouTube tutorials on the latest product releases daily, as routinely as eating my morning bowl of cereal. I have reward cards to every beauty store, from Ulta and Sephora to CVS and Walgreens. As much as I indulge in making expensive purchases on freshly stocked merchandise at high-end stores, I can't help but make comparisons to similar drugstore products. $25 will get you just a Kat Von D liquid lipstick in Sephora, but below I share my tips to get a full face for the low price of $25!

1. Wet N Wild Photo Focus Foundation, $5.99

This foundation will help you take the best selfies, EVER! It has light-adjusting complex to prevent white cast in photos (no more looking like a ghost! Well, except if you have pale skin like me, and you just have to realize you'll always look ghostly).

2. Rimmel London Kate Sculpting Cosmetic Kit, $6.49

This is the ultimate trio for a nice summer glow: a gorgeous shimmery hightlight, a bronzy contour shade, and a bright pink for added flush. Its all included for ONLY $6.49, too! That knocks out three different types of products all in one easy to use palette. Our total is up to: $12.49.

3. E.l.f. Eyebrow Kit, $3.00

This kit has a wax and a creamy powder to fill in your eyebrows with. I never realized how important eyebrows are in completing your full face look! This is a steal at $3. *I would also double this as an eye-shadow by blending the powder into your crease for some added definition!* Total: $15.49

4. Essence Get Big! Lashes, $3.99

Essence is such an underrated brand in my opinion. The brand is sold at Ulta and it's sooo affordable! I love their eyebrow products, eye-shadows, and their mascaras, like this one here. For $4, it's a nice lengthening mascara that boosts your lashes to be more voluminous in seconds. Total: $19.49


5. Wet N Wild MegaLast Liquid Catsuit Lipstick, $4.99

Want to try out matte lipsticks but don't feel like investing in a $20-$30 lip product? Try this incredibly pigmented one from Wet N Wild that will only cost you as much as a meal at Wendy's. This liquid lipstick has a doe foot applicator that scarily mimicks the ones found on Jeffree Star lipsticks, so its like you are getting a Velour Lipstick for more than half the price. Final Total: $24.49!
