Drug Store Products I Am Loving!

Long time no see my loves!
I have been so unbelievably busy with school and other personal things that I have had no time to post on here as well as my youtube channel that is linked in my bio and Google + page
I have accumulated a variety of drug store products that are great!
I am going to tell you guys a little about the products and give a little review!
Colour Calming Primer by No 7
I originally bought this product because not only did I need face primer but I wanted one that would allow me to use less product. I love this primer! It goes on green but when you apply it, it almost transforms to your skin and creates an even canvas. I definitely recommend this product for redness! As for its application, be careful not to apply too much because your face will be very green and even after you apply your foundation, it will still have a greenish tint (made that mistake the first time I used it). Also, I would recommend applying this with a brush instead of your hands. I use a foundation brush and it goes on a lot more even. I found that when I applied it with my hands, the primer got powdery and almost began to flake as I rubbed it in! You can find this product at Target for $8.99

Wet n Wild Mega Last Lip Stick "Bare it All"
For only $1.99 from CVS, I bought this lipstick from the brand Wet n Wild! I was looking for a cheap nude lipstick and have heard a lot of good things about this brand! It definitely is a brand that I would buy again. The color goes on exactly the same as it looks in the tube and lasts a while (with lip liner and a little gloss of course!). If you are looking for lipstick that does not break the bank, go for Wet n Wild Mega Last Lip Stick!

E.L.F Small Stippling Brush
I was looking for a new foundation brush because the previous one I was using left a lot of streaks and I hated it! There is a larger version of this brush but I purchased the small one because I wanted to be able to reach into the small crevices of my face easier! I was surprised at the quality of this brush for the price! I have washed it twice and use it basically every day and it has had little to no shedding! It applies great and just really does what it is supposed to! This brush was from Target and I bought it for the price of $3.00!

Covergirl TruBlend FixStick "medium deep"
I actually purchased this product from Walmart for $7.44 today since I have been wanting to use a cream contour instead of powder! I will definitely post a review once I actually use it but I have heard many good things about this product being used specifically for contouring!

Maybelline Baby Lips Dr. Rescue
I actually was not a fan of the original baby lips collection. I kind of felt that the only reason the products were so popular was because of the look of the tube and the various colors. However, I love the medicated Baby Lips products. Maybelline has done a great job of mixing color with a medicated chap stick that relieves pain from cold sores and severe chapped lips which I seriously have right now! These products are available at many drug stores! Definitely recommend over eos! $3.48 from Walmart

Rimmel London's Stay Matte Liquid Mousse Foundation in "True Ivory"
I personally do not use this as my go-to foundation on a day-to-day basis but that has nothing to do with the product not doing its job. It actually does its job very well which is actually the problem. I have naturally dry skin and this foundation is very very matte. If you have oily skin, this is the product for you 100% but if you have dryer skin, it still looks great but you have to apply the product carefully. It has a faint chemically smell but honestly it does not bother me. It does not linger, its only around has you are originally putting it on your face prior to rubbing it in. I purchased this from CVS for $3.99 after using a $1.00 off coupon.

L'Oreal paris Magic Nude Liquid Powder Perfecting Makeup in "Nude Beige"
This is by far my favorite foundation ever! This foundation goes on so smoothly and it seriously looks like you're not even wearing foundation. It is not a very thick foundation but it has a very good coverage! You NEED to shake this product before you use it. I am not sure why but it says it on the bottle and if you do not, the foundation will not be mixed when you apply it. I absolutely recommend this foundation for all skin types! From Walmart for $10.97

As always, please leave comments of things you would like me to post or review!
Thank you for all of the support xoxo<3
