There's something so satisfying about doing your makeup with products that are crazy affordable. Not to say the expensive stuff isn't great as well, but when you make a good makeup find at your local Target or CVS it's like finding treasure. These are my favorite makeup products that I found at great prices that won't hurt your wallet. Some will be a bit expensive but they also last a long time.

L'Oreal: Voluminous Feline in Black/Brown
Why it's great: It makes your eyelashes look super long and doesn't often clump them either.

NYX: Soft Matte Lip Cream-Cannes
Why it's great: I love using this color for natural looks because it's not super bright but also not super dull. Plus it smells like cake batter.

NYX: HD Finishing Powder

NYX: White eyeliner
Why it's great: I learned a trick a while back from youtube that if you want to make your eyes look bigger you should line your waterline with white eyeliner. This certainly does the trick and glides on easily.

Besame: 1946-Red Velvet Lipstick
Why it's great: I was in love with Peggy Carter's shade of lipstick in Marvel's "Agent Carter" and once I found the actual lipstick used on the show I had to have it. It's an awesome and fantastic shade of red made with 1940's era accurate ingredients.
Price: $22
