If you’re a saver and not a spender, this is a great neutral colored palette priced at $4.99 to own!

NYX isn’t exactly a drugstore makeup brand, but luckily they offer some affordable makeup!

You can use the glosses as by themselves or blend them together for a custom color! Find this at Ulta or Drugstore.com for around $8.

I think the first thing that caught my eye about this makeup palette, aside from the incredible colors, was that they’re coconut infused! I’m crazy for anything coconut so I was instantly intrigued! This trio might not look like much but it can be used on the cheeks, eyes and lips. Use it to add shimmer, highlight or contour! You can find this at Target for $11.99.
7 Profusion Spotlight Lip/Eye Palette
I’ve never heard of Profusion Cosmetics before but this company has one of the cutest and cheapest lip and eye palettes around! You can find this particular makeup palette at Ulta for $3.99, but the brand is also available at other drugstores like Walgreens. This small palette is packed with six shades of lip color and six shades of eye color so you’ll never be caught with boring makeup!
Drugstore makeup and lower priced makeup in general sometimes get a bad rap but I personally love them. I think you can find good and bad products at every price point but it’s especially nice when you find your perfect shade at a very low price! What’s your favorite drugstore beauty product?
