The Cheap Makeup You Need In Your Collection
If you’re anything thing like me, £40 eyeshadow palettes and £25 foundation just don’t seem worth it. The downside of being a makeup cheapskate, however, is trying and testing just about every product possible until you find something you love. This list is here to decrease the time and money you spend doing this, giving you the perfect face full of makeup straight from the drugstore. Yay for cheap makeup!

It isn’t cakey like most drugstore powders and will hold your makeup for most of the day.
2. Sleek Makeup CC Cream, £8.99
