Favorite Drugstore Products Part 2: Eyes







Mascaras are a dime a dozen at the drugstore, but only a few are actually worth picking up. 
L'oreal's Original Voluminous mascara is AMAZING!  The way it separates and lengthens lashes is just incredible.  It's a drier formula with a thicker wand which means it's going to help create that voluminous look by fattening lashes and not creating those spidery lashes that really aren't cute.  There are other decent drugstore mascaras but this one is such a holy grail product that the others aren't even worth mentioning. Just do yourself a favor and put this in your makeup bag right now!

 As for shadows, I have a harder time finding ones that I really, truly love.  However, Maybelline's Color Tattoos have won me over.  I find these are so easy to use on days that I really don't want to wear makeup or don't have a lot of time.  They are creamy, LONG LASTING and you can just apply it with your fingers and go.  It really takes no time at all.

Now, my liner is my CANNOT LIVE WITHOUT beauty item.  I can't leave the house without doing a cat eye or winged out liner.  It's just not feasible.  The best eye liner I've ever used and will continue to use until the end of time is the N.Y.C. Liquid Liner.  It's $2.99 and it is the BLACKEST liner I've ever used.  It's staying power is GLORIOUS.  I will admit that liquid liner is tricky to use for beginners, especially when it is a brush like the N.Y.C. and not a felt tip liner, but it's definitely easy to get the hang of after a few attempts.  Maybelline's Eye Studio is a wonderful gel liner and I also pick this one up quite a bit.  But, the N.Y.C. Liquid Liner = LIFE.
