10 Drugstore Beauty Products That Are Worth The Hype

Walking into the drugstore tends to be a bit overwhelming. Whether you are searching for a mascara or just in the mood to browse, how are you supposed to begin to know which makeup products are actually worth the hype, AND your time?!

Below I have compiled a list of 10 drugstore makeup products that are ACTUALLY worth the hype. Along with your money, and time. Enjoy!



1. NYC Sunny Bronzer- Such an amazing matte bronzer. Extremely similar to Benefit Hoolah, not only in quality but texture and color. Also, this bronzer is no more than 3 dollars so you really can't beat it!


2. Maybelline Age Rewind Concealer- The perfect concealer to highlight and cover those dark under eyes. Whether you get it in the lightest shade, or the pink shade made specifically for highlighting those under eyes, it's incredibly smooth, lightweight and full coverage.


3. Real Techniques Makeup Brushes- The best makeup brushes that I have found thus far at the drugstore. You know you are getting amazing quality when they are made by twin makeup artists that are the best at what they do. They are extremely reasonable in price and have a wide variety of products!


4. Maybelline Color Tattoo Cream Eyeshadows- An all over color for the eyelid if you are in a hurry, or a primer for your shadows, these cream eyeshadows are perfect! Such a broad range of colors and incredibly pigmented.

5. Elf eyelash curler- An eyelash curler for 1 dollar, CAN'T beat it!

6. Jordana Extreme Lash Mascara- An amazing mascara that I have found myself purchasing over and over again. Super black, and super inexpensive.



6. Nyx Stick Foundation- I found that if you purchase this stick foundation in a dark color, it is PERFECT for contouring. So far, I prefer a cream contour as opposed to a powder because I have more control over the application.


7. Maybelline Fit Concealer- Another great concealer for under the eyes, spot concealing and more.


8. Batiste Dry Shampoo for Brown Hair- My FAVORITE dry shampoo not to mention it is meant for dark roots that way you are not left with white powdery looking hair.


9. Simple Cleansing Water- An absolute must for me and my skin everyday. The simple cleansing water is a perfect in between when you want to refresh your face without diving into your whole skincare routine.


10. Simple Cleansing Wipes- The amount of face wipes at the drugstore seems to grow every time I go in there. However, these remain to be my absolute favorite. They are gentle, scent free and perfect for my sensitive skin.

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
