I thought it would be fun to give you all a peek inside my make-up bag today. As a disclaimer...you're not going to see any fancy make-up counter stuff here. I'm a loyal drugstore product user...both because I'm on a budget, and also because I've found products that I love and I stick with.
To be honest, even if I had a larger budget for beauty items, I would still shop at the drugstore because I'm frugal like that. :)
So here are my favorite beauty items...
1. Cover Girl CG Smoothers tinted moisture
I use this instead of foundation and love the tint and coverage it offers. I also use Cover Girl loose powder {not pictured}
2. Cover Girl Invisible cream concealer
3. Cover Girl Natural Lash no color mascara
I have rather unruly eyebrows so this product is a must have for me every day.
4. Rimmel Sexy Curves mascara
LOVE this mascara. It goes on without any clumps and it has a great curved wand that gets every lash.
5. e.l.f. blush in twinkle pink
e.l.f. cosmetics are really great products for the value. This blush is $3 and the eyeshadow you'll see below was $1 {found it at our Dollar Tree!}
6. Almay Intense eyeshadow trio
I have a lot of eyeshadow kits but this is one of my favorites. The colors are great and isn't the packaging adorable?
7. e.l.f. studio single eyeshadow in coffee bean
I use this rich dark brown as an eyeliner.
8. Wet & Wild Natural Blend Lip Shimmer in cocoa
This lip balm was $2 and is a really perfect shade for fall.
9. Bath and Body Works mentha lip shine
I usually only apply lip color in the morning before work, and use this stuff throughout the rest of the day. It has a slight pink tint and a little bit of shine.
So there you have it! My make-up essentials. I'm basically a walking ad for Cover Girl. :)
What are your makeup staples? Do you splurge at the make-up counter or rely on drugstore buys?

I love ELF cosmetics! I have soooo much of it!
I love seeing what products others use. You're skin and makeup always looks so pretty. I love that eyeshadow!
I use a mix of drug store plus beauty counter products. I have acne prone/acne scarred skin so I do splurge on a quality oil-free foundation.
I have tricky skin so I use Merle Norman and I love it! It is expensive, but it lasts me 6 months :) I do use covergirl blush, eye shadow, and mascara. My lipstick/gloss, is usually avon. My husband's aunt sells it so I usually get it when it's 99 cents.
Your skin is always glowing. I have so many blemishes I have to have more coverage.
i use mineral foundation from ulta. i really like it. my eyeshadow, blush and mascara are covergirl...love them! i have a b&bw lip gloss that i love too. i also can't live without nivea chapstick.
