@monicakm Morphe is considered lower-end makeup, but they have a great assortment and are considered excellent.

CP is Colourpop.  It's not a drugstore item but it's less spendy than a lot of drugstore beauty products.   WnW is Wet n Wild. OoO is Oil of Olay.

@JeanLouiseFinch, I bought this same light L'Oreal BB foundation a couple of months ago, and I love it! I got a BOGO from Walgreens website and have found that it's the perfect light coverage for me, plus so moisturizing. It's definitely a keeper for me. It's white when I dot it on my skin, but immediately changes with a hint of color that's perfect for me in the medium.

@monicakm Of course, they are all inexpensive more accessible brands, and that is what we are talking about here. The rules I was suggesting is that if other's want to talk about expensive brands such as MAC, Charlotte Tilbury, Nars, La Mer etc. they can start their own thread. 

 

This thread is to talk about affordable beauty.

Been using Neutrogena Oil Free eye makeup remover from Amazon, on auto delivery for a long time. It's about $5.00 a bottle, with a price adjustment for AD. It looks like Lancôme Bifacil that I used for years, works just as well and sooooo much cheaper. also, tried  Morph eyebrow pencil instead of Anastasia and also like it as well for at least half the price (available at Ulta). Alba Hawaiian enzyme pineapple cleanser is totally non-drying. I've been using this only in the  morning, so not sure how well it removes makeup; still have Tatcha to use up at night (do love it.....we'll see). Think there are tons of good replacement items out there!

This has always been an issue for me.  I always read about mascaras that cost $30, $50, $75, $100+ and I just can't sign on.  I toss my Maybelline Full 'N Soft washable every three months and start a new tube.

 

There's no way I could toss a $100 tube of mascara every 90 days.

i purchased Morphe lightweight foundation and is completely horrible.  The shade for fair/light ended up being a salmon color.  Very disappointing and frankly, a waste of money.  It's too bad it did not work out.
