    Drugstore makeup that is just as good as high end

Transcript

Are drugstore makeup products that if you told me were high end, I would believe you because they're just as good. I'm sorry. I can't shut up with the L'Oreal brow elimination. This product is so good. It's one of the only products I found that keeps my brows up all day long, and I have the most stubborn brows ever. It doesn't ever flake, look crusty, or gross. I'm wearing it right now, and it literally just keeps my brows looking perfect. The e. L. F soft glam satin foundation is incredible, y'all. Like, I cannot stop using this foundation. It is long lasting. It's stunning on the skin, like, literally just as good as high end. If you put this good in, like, a high end bottle, I would seriously believe you that this is, like, a $50 foundation. Same thing with the L'Oreal skin tint. This is seriously one of the best skin tints ever created. You rank literally put this in a high end bottle and sell it for $50 and people would buy it. That is actually better than a lot of high end skin tints. It's hydrating. It's super skin like. It's lightweight. It's literally perfect. I cannot stop using this lip liner. This is the Maybelline Lipton tier in the shade line better. It is the most perfect shade ever. It's like this beautiful pink shade I'm wearing right now. It is better than most lip liners that I own. It is one of the most longest lasting lasting lip liners I've ever tried. The Milani baked blushes, this has been around forever, but luminous blushes are, like, really trending right now. And if you're wearing this, like, you would literally think this was a high end blush. One of the things that's so special about it is it is a luminous blush, but instead of emphasizing pores and texture, it actually is pretty blurring. This new L'Oreal setting spray has quickly become a holy grail. I have not been able to leave my house without this product on because my makeup will literally melt off. It's literally hairspray for your face. Once you spray your face with this, it will not move, which is a must because I'd be sweating out here in 100 degree weather. Go to part two.
