My Favorite Drugstore Lipsticks | #DrugstoreBeautyWeek

Milani lipsticks are some of my all time favorite. They're super creamy and pigmented and smell amazing. They're a great way to try out fun seasonal colors you may not always go for. I have 6 different shades, but 17 Plumrose is definitely my all time favorite. I find them to be really comparable to MAC lipsticks in the sense that both have great color pay off and go on easily.

17 Plumrose - Mauves are some of my favorite shades and this is no different
05 Red Label - A perfect holiday red with blue undertones
12 Flamingo Pose - A bright pink with some peachy undertones
01 Sweet Nectar - A true orange, great for summer
24 Black Cherry - My favorite shade for fall/winter

Drugstore Concealers That Really Work | #DrugstoreBeautyWeek

Concealers are one of my favorite beauty products (definitely top 3) and there are some hidden gems at the drugstore that are really great! Here are my 6 favorite!
1. L'Oreal True Match Super Blendable Concealer - This is a great concealer for under the eyes. In general the true match line from L'Oreal is really great, and this is no exception. They have a great color range which is something that can be tough to find at the drugstore.
2. Maybelline Fit Me Concealer - This is my favorite concealer on the list. It's super comparable to the NARS radiant creamy concealer, but for a third of the price. If you've been wanting to try the NARS one, pick this up instead. The quality is amazing, and it does a great job and hiding my dark circles. I can't live without it.
3. Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser - This concealer is magical. It comes in two ranges, one of which has regular skin tone shades, and the other that has a brightening/pinky shade. Both are amazing, and the pinky-toned one is a great base for another concealer. It completely cancels out dark circles.
4. Maybelline FaceStudie Master Conceal - This concealer reminds me of the M.A.C Pro Longwear concealer in terms of consistency, both are creamy and very opaque. This is great for both under eye concealing and blemish concealing.
5. Garnier Skin Renew Anti-Dark Circle Eye Roller - I always find this product so interesting because it combines and eye treatment with a concealer. Unlike the others on this list, this isn't a full coverage concealer but it is worth trying. It combines a caffeine gel with a light/medium coverage concealer, to help rid you of your dark circles while concealing them. The applicator also helps de-puff the area. It's amazing.
6. L.A. Girl Pro Conceal HD Concealer - This concealer is so affordable it's practically free. For just under $3 you have tons of shades to choose from, and multiple ways to use this. The darker shades are perfect for contouring and the brush tip makes it great for nose contouring in particular.

Best Drugstore Mascaras | #DrugstoreBeautyWeek

This is the beginning of #drugstoreweek and I'm so excited. I absolutely love drugstore mascara and it's the number one product I recommend saving your money on. The drugstore has some amazing mascaras that exceed even the most expensive designer tubes. Here are my 6 favorite 

1. Maybelline Great Lash Mascara - This is a serious OG mascara. My mom used this when I was little and I still think it's a great mascara. It gets the job done, and even though it isn't fancy, if you're on a budget, this is definitely worth picking up. 
2. L'Oreal Telescopic Carbon Black Mascara - This is a great mascara for length. It gives you super long spidery lashes that are seriously amazing. It's super black, which is important for me. This doesn't give you any real volume, so if you don't love length and prefer volume, this might not be the best choice for you.
3. Maybelline "The Colossal Volum' Express" Mascara - This is my second favorite mascara on this list. I think it does an amazing job at giving your lashes both volume and length. Again, it's super black and doesn't smudge, even on my bottom lashes. 
4. CoverGirl LashBlast Volume Mascara - This mascara is a dupe for Benefit's 'They're Real.' It does practically the same thing - lengthens and separates.  The only difference is it's half the price. If you've been wanting to try the Benefit one but are on a budget, pick this one up instead.
5. CoverGirl Clump Crusher Mascara - Very similar to the LashBlast, this mascara lengthens and separates, but the curved wand allows you to prevent clumping. While I don't notice a huge difference between the two, if you find that your lashes easily clump when applying multiple coats of mascara, this is worth a try.
6. L'Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black Mascara - This mascara is holy grail status. I always need to have a tube in my makeup collection. It's super black and doesn't smudge. It gives my curls volume and length and has the type of brush I'm a fan of. Definitely my favorite on this list.
