7 Inexpensive Makeup Products That Will Make You Look Like The Queen You Are

Some of us love makeup but don't really have the budget to buy the top of the line products, while others of us don't really wear much makeup so we don't want to buy the latest Mac pallet because it will never be used! I have compiled a list of inexpensive makeup products that will make you look damn good, but won't break the bank!

1. The Colossal Volume by Maybelline

This mascara is my absolute favorite. I have gone through various brands of mascara over the years, trying to see what would work the best and I continuously go back to this one. Not only does it fan out your lashes, but it makes them look thick and long! I've actually had people ask me if I have lash extensions when I wear this one. What is also great about this little magic wand is that with tax, it should only be about $7!

2. Wet n' Wild Coloricon Bronzer

This bronzer comes in a few different tones! It's very subtle and not too glittery, which can be annoying with some products. The best part is that it is only about $4 dollars and gives a natural looking glow!

3. Ultra Liner by Maybelline in Waterproof


This little guy not only stays on your lids without smearing everywhere after a few hours but lasts a long time in the terms of usage. Because its waterproof and liquid it doesn't go everywhere after a long day's wear, but it comes off super easy when you do choose to take it off. It comes out to be around $6 dollars after tax too!

4. Stay Matte Liquid Mousse Foundation by Rimmel

I love this foundation for a few reasons. Not only does it make my skin look nice and matte, but because it is mousse it is easily spreadable with a beauty blender so a little goes a long way! I usually would put a small dab on the back of my hand and use my damp beauty blender to conceal any imperfections I choose to cover!

5.Nyx Matte Liquid Lipstick

I absolutely love lipstick, especially when I need to dress up for something to add a little something extra. Nyx Matte Liquid Lipstick has a variety of colors and stays on your lips for a long time. So if you're looking to add a little pop to your makeup I would highly recommend these! With tax one of them comes to be about $7.

6. Vaseline

It surprises me how many people don't know that Chapstick and lipgloss are basically overpriced, miniature tubes of Vaseline AKA Petroleum Jelly. I don't even buy lip gloss. I just buy a container of Vaseline and slide it on my lips. They even sell them in tiny containers that will fit in your bag! If you want a little color just use a small dab of lipstick on your lips then top it off bit of this! You can even get the generic version and it does the same thing. The price can range from $1-$5 and it lasts FOREVER.

7. Banana Boat Self Tanning Lotion

This stuff works miracles. You rub it on after you shower and it will show up in about an hour! It comes in two shades, Deep Dark Color, as well as Light/Medium and It, lasts about 5 days before you have to reapply. I love to have a glow but I don't like the idea of going into tanning beds. If you do use this, be sure to wash your hands thoroughly afterward so they don't turn orange! This comes out to be around $7-$8 and comes in a mousse as well!

Hopefully, this list of beauty products helps you feel like the queen you are without emptying your wallet because they sure do for me!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
