Like the title states, Setting Spray is the underrated holy grail product that you need everyday. Setting Spray has recently become popular among the beauty community and it has good reason to. I have been using setting spray for about two years now and it has completely changed my makeup. After you finish your whole face of makeup giving a nice mist over the face that locks your makeup in all day and will not move. the setting spray also makes your makeup (mostly foundation) set into your face making it look like your actual skin. Overall it truly finishes off your makeup look and everyone should invest in buying one. They are really nice High-end setting sprays that do the job but I found my favorite drug store product that does the same job. It is the Maybelline “Master Fix” ‘wear-boosting setting spray’. This product only cost $8 which isn’t bad considering setting sprays can run near the $30 range. Another face spray that I absolutely am in love with is the Mario Badescu “facial spray with aloe, herbs, and rose water”. This stuff helps with my skin compaction and overall hydration of the skin. What I like to do is spray it on my face before my makeup as an extra primer and moisturizer. This product also cost around $8. If there is one product you need its this one!

Favorite Drugstore Foundation
When it comes to finding the right foundation for your skin type it can be extremely difficult. I have tried BB creams, light coverage- high coverage foundation, liquid and stick. Through all the ones I have tried from the drugstore I have finally landed on a product that satisfies all my needs in a foundation product. That product is the L’Oréal Paris Infallible Pro‑Matte Foundation. This is a little on the pricy side in my eyes but it is much better than most foundation products while actually doing what you want a foundation to do. This product cost around $10 depending on where you buy it. Overall it does exactly what it says in the name. It keeps your skin matte all day. You don’t feel greasy halfway through wearing it. It is a medium to full coverage foundation but it is for sure buildable. Personally, I like to mix two shades ( Classic Ivory 101 and Natural Buff 103). I like mixing and creating my own shade that truly matches my skin tone is because I do self tan so my skin color is forever changing. Therefore with these two shades I know I can always create the right color that will match the rest of me.
The Best Drugstore Mascara
Throughout my many years of wearing makeup, I have always been someone to always be changing up which mascara I try. Once I used up a tube I was ready to move on to the next to see if it could beat the last. After testing many of different brands and products that claim to do a range of things, I think I have personally found a combo that is the best. Not to mention they are drugstore products which makes them super affordable. Mascara is one of those beauty products that I don’t think you need to spend more then eight dollars on. Some of the high end products I see in Ulta can cost over thirty dollars. I think this is unbelievable. This combo that I have found cost less then that and you are buying two products. Those products are Covergirls lashblast fusion and Maybelline lash sensational. Both of these products cost around $7 depending on where you buy it from.
Some tips on how I like to apply these products are:
1) start with the covergirl Lashblast fusion mascara and apply this to your top lashes. Mainly focusing the product close to your eye lid and not as much on the ends of the lash. We will be coming back to that.
2) once you have done the top lashes on each eye, take the Maybelline lash sensational mascara and apply this to the bottom lashes.
3) lastly, go back to the top lashes with the lash sensational mascara and just apply this to the tips of the lashes.
by doing this application in this order and with these products it will make your lashes long and full looking.
