New In: Drugstore Make-up Loves

Recently I've picked up a few new make-up items from the drugstore, and so I thought I'd share some of my favourites with you today.

The Body Shop InstaBlur Primer - I wasn't sure whether The Body Shop counted as drugstore, but I wouldn't class it as high end so I suppose it does! I've never been a massive primer user, however this one has completely converted me. At first, it comes out as a weird clear paste but when you apply it - it then turns into a silky smooth primer. Since using this, I have noticed a huge difference in the longevity of my make-up, meaning I no longer have to powder during the day which is amazing for me. The only thing I will say is my skin has been breaking out a little recently, and this is the only new face product that I've been using - it's nothing major but just a small warning for those of you with sensitive skin!

Revlon Lipstick in Pink in the Afternoon - This is my most recent purchase out of the four products, and I absolutely love it. I sometimes find it hard to wear lipsticks as they don't always suit me, but this one is so easy to wear - I wear it pretty much every day now! It's the perfect nude/pink colour - a 'your lips but better' shade.

Maybelline Colour Tattoo Leather Effect - These have been everywhere recently, and I can definitely see why - they're great! I was always a big fan of the original Colour Tattoos but I also really like these Leather Effect ones too. I picked up the shade Creamy Beige, which is a lovely everyday colour by itself or a good base to layer over too.

Bourjois Liner Pinceau - I've actually owned this for quite a while now - it was one of the products that Bourjois gave to me after I did work experience with them. At first, I just put it to one side as I never really wore eyeliner, but since having discovered the appeal of liquid/felt tip liner, I've become completely obsessed with it! It has a super thin brush which makes for easy application, and it sets really quickly as well which means it stays in place all day.

What are your favourite new products from the drugstore? Have you tried any of these?

  4. I recently picked up the color tattoo powder in an electric blue color to line the bottom of my eyes when I'm feeling crazy! I love it. Also I refuse to buy mascara that isn't drug store as a poor student.

    1. Sorry I forgot to mention this! They're basically a little thicker in consistency and have more of a matte finish, but other than that they're fairly similar - just different colours. x

  10. I'm unsure how I feel about Instablur. I'm going to use it more over the Christmas period and then write up a review on it
