What are your favourite drugstore products?

Beautiful With Brains says: I absolutely love Barry M Dazzle Dusts and Sleek Eyeshadow palettes. Well, actually I love everything by Barry M and Sleek, their products are awesome, come in a wide variety of shades and they’re long-lasting.

Other drugstore favourites are the ELF eyeshadow brush and Studio Powder brush, Labello lip balms, L’Oreal Elvive Nutri-Gloss Conditioner, NYX Round Lipsticks, Olay Complete Day Cream with UV Filters and Wet n Wild Mega Glo Illuminating Powder. There are more but it’d take too much time to list them all lol.

I like the lip glosses and glitter eyeliners from H&M. oh, and their brow pencil! Plus Revlon colorstay foundation

I actually do like the elf shadow brush as well (but I have to pick them in person to avoid defective ones) beside that, I like certain shades of Revlon superlustrous lip gloss (at the same time I hate quite a few Revlon lipsticks) and Milani limited edition polishes…

Pinch, I have never tried H&M makeup. Everytime I go at my local shop, the makeup section is always so messy and dirty but I’ll make sure I’ll check out the glosses next time.

Citrine, the ELF eyeshadow brush is amazing, esp considered the price. I had to order it online but I’m glad that I got a good one. I agree that Revlon is hit and miss (although the quality’s slowly improving lately imo), but they do have some nice glosses.

Wow, basically what you wrote up there I like them as well (except Sleek and Labello because I can’t find them here.) I need to get the ELF eyeshadow brush, I’ve heard a lot of good things about it.

Ooh, so many! I *adore* Style-Styli eyeliners – I’d even go so far as to say they’re on par with some MAC eyeliners – and Olay Regenerist Serum. L’oreal HiP has lots of high color-payoff eyeshadows and nice, smooth eyeliners as well, though I haven’t had that much experience with it yet.

I have heard nothing but great stuffs about Barry M, it’s really interesting! Hmm..my favorite drugstore makeup? well there’s really non specific, but let’s say for lippies, definitely the NYX one, for mascaras, it’ll be Maybelline

I kinda like stuff by Loreal – especially their sunblock (HG stuff) as well as their makeup remover! I also like the Funky Eyelight Pencils from Silkygirl (South east asian version of Wet n’ Wild)!

It’s hard to say, because I like so many drugstore products. I could mention brands I like… hehe~ I like NYX, L’oreal HIP, Revlon, and Milani.

Dao, wow, it’s nice to know we have the same tastes, those are really amazing products. And you should get the ELF brush, it’s one of my favourites. It has soft bristles that don’t shed and if I wanted to, I could do my entire eye-makeup with it
beautifulwithbrains February 5, 2010 8:01 am

Rebecca, you make me so curious to try the Style-Styli eyeliners, but they are not available here L’Oreal Hip isn’t either but I recently had the chance to try one of their eyeshadows (thanks to my friend Dao) and I love it. It’s so pigmented!
beautifulwithbrains February 5, 2010 8:05 am

Nikki, if you have the chance, try Barry M stuff, you won’t be disappointed. That’s one of my fave drugstore brands and so far I’ve liked everything that I’ve tried. And I agree with you, NYX lipsticks are great, esp for the price
beautifulwithbrains February 5, 2010 8:09 am

Jenn, L’Oreal has some good products, but their stuff is becoming so expensive here lately. The pencils from Silkygirl sound nice and I love the name. I’ve had the chance to try a lipgloss and a lipstick from Silkygirl and I have to say, I’m impressed.
beautifulwithbrains February 5, 2010 8:15 am

Ahleessa, me too. Almost all my fave products are from the drugstore eheh. Those are good brands, esp NYX.
styleezta February 5, 2010 11:55 am

I like the sleek palettes fo sho! Eyeko mascara is great! barry m nail polish is awesome and nyx lipsticks are SPECTACULAR!!
beautifulwithbrains February 5, 2010 4:08 pm

Styleezta, I haven’t tried the Eyeko mascara yet but I absolutely love everything else you’ve mentioned. Those are such amazing products and so inexpensive!
Mylanqolia February 8, 2010 6:37 pm

Also 10 points for Sleek from Germany. Besides, I love Catrice, as they offer my fave mascara and some good liquid liners (the same thing with Essence) and P2 for their lovely kajals , lipsticks and nailpolishes. Blimey! I’m such a drugstore whore (my blog proves it).

Mylanqolia, yay for all the Sleek love I’ve never heard of P2 before but it sounds like a nice drugstore brand. I’m a drugstore girl too. As much as I like high-end products I can rarely get myself to buy them. I just think about all the makeup I could get for cheaper and my high-end lemming is usually killed lol. After all, some drugstore products are real gems
