Everyone has their favorite "go-to" option for many aspects of their lives. It's getting your usual order at a restaurant, ice cream shop, or even your favorite fountain soda at a gas station. You recommend it to your friends when they are unsure of what to order because you want to get them hooked on the things that always work for you. You yourself always know that every time you opt for your "go-to" you won't regret it because it's familiar and heavenly. Every. Single. Time.
This is how I feel every time I zip open my makeup bag and reach for the holy grail of all drugstore products. That product being Maybelline . It is perfect for any occasion from getting ready for work, to getting ready for a night out with my roommates, as well as any moment in-between. I know that every time I blend in my Maybelline Fit Me Liquid Foundation with a kabuki brush to perfection on my face that it will look smooth, matte, and flawless. Setting the foundation with the matching shade of Maybelline Fit Me Matte and Poreless Powder solidifies not only the chance of the makeup staying on my face all day, but also my belief that it is one of the top drugstore products out there. This combination alone covers any of your personal doubts of imperfections (never forget you are beautiful the way you are)!

Maybelline also has some amazing concealers for an affordable price. Especially for us college students on a budget, or anyone, in general, looking for good products/formulas without feeling like you're selling your soul to the makeup Gods to pay for them. The Age Rewinding Concealer is the most ideal conceal for two reasons.
1. It's easy to work
All you have to do is twist the top of the tube and the product seeps up into the perfectly rounded soft sponge.
2. It's easy to apply
For a more full-looking coverage you can sweep the sponge into a downward triangle under your eyes and then buff out with brush or damp beauty blender. Yet, if you are someone who only needs light coverage you can just dab the sponge straight under your eyes lightly until you get the desired level of concealer for those pesky bags that never seem to disappear.
Some people also prefer to contour with this concealer. All you simply have to do is slightly draw a line underneath your cheek bone structure with the Age Rewinding Concealer, and blend downward with a kabuki brush to create a perfect sharp line to define those perfect cheekbones you were born with.
Lastly, for a few finishing touches....
To top off this simple but full coverage look you can add a few coats of Maybelline Pumped Up Colossal Mascara. This will give you those total plump and full eyelashes that you sometimes wish you were naturally born with.
Finally for those beautiful lips of yours. You can NEVER go wrong with the Maybelline Color Blur Cream Lip Pencil and Smudger . My personal favorite color shade is "Cherry Cherry Bang Bang" It is the classic cherry red shade that intensifies your simple makeup look and will be sure to turn heads. This specific product is one of my "go-to's" due to the fact that it is easy to not only line your lips, but also, fills them in fully and wonderfully. The opposite end of the applicator has a "smudger" which you can use to lightly smudge the innermost part of your lips to give them the beautiful ombre effect.

Afterall, "Maybe it's Maybelline", or Maybe it's Magic.
However, thats for you to try and findout for yourself.
