THE BEST DRUGSTORE MAKEUP OF 2024 (…so far!) 

I stopped buying high end. I'm buying drugstore now. Thank you for saving me money. I am hooked on the Essence Lash With Out Limits Mascara in brown thanks to you!

I used to buy only drugstore ,and Avon eyeshadows ,blush ,liner;then when I had money I switched to high end and was so disappointed I don't know I thought it would be this magical unicorn experience , quess what it wasn't I've gone back to drugstore 😊

Drugstore is killing it past 5 yrs or so!! Elf will be considered high end one day lol

Absolutely love drugstore. After being so disappointed with so many high-end products, I'm just sticking with affordable now. Thank you for all the research you do!

I love your videos, Andrea! Thank you for always including drugstore makeup! It really helps me as a teen to spend my money responsibly! Keep doing what you’re doing!

I have decluttered all of my high end products except ND eye palettes. Drug store does a great job, sometimes better. Also Ulta and Sephora brands products also have some gems. Thanks for continuing to make these great drug store videos!! 🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤

Drugstore makeup is getting so good!!

I love Elf! Now becoming more LA colors lately.. they just launched liquid blushes and bronzers! ❤️

Always love seeing the best of drugstore!

Best of the best, at the drugstore! My fave videos. Thank you so much for all the hard work you do, bringing us products, application tips and sunshine! ❤

Thanks for all of your hard work and honest feedback Andréa! I am absolutely obsessed with so much drugstore makeup right now!! As a fellow oily/combo skinned girl, I have been alternating between the Ulta Complexion Crush foundation and the Revlon Illuminance Skin Caring foundation (both with the ELF Powergrip underneath). Daily, I wear the NYX Buttermelt bronzer. And I love the NYX Buttermelt blushes. I have Had Butta and All the Butta! ❤

Andrea have you tried the ColourPop bronzer sticks? Could you do a video of your favorite makeup brushes and how to use them?

Thank you Andrea for another great video. I really appreciate that you put the prices on your list - I probably shouldn't admit this but I keep a spreadsheet of things I want to buy and I track the price as well. I just print off a list from it then when I am ready to go shopping or have an extra monetary windfall. Thanks again.

Andréa, your hair looks absolutely GORGEOUS. 🥰 Thank you for continuing to promote drugstore.

The elf liquid blush is amazing!

Thank you for being so in details about the scents. ❤❤❤ It matters to me a lot when picking out a lip product.

I would LOVE a video on how you would do your makeup with no foundation (liquid, powder, or tinted anything like cc cream or tinted moisturizer). Thanks!! ❤

It's so interesting to see how with the elf and nyx blushes, the ones that were sold out (in the screen shares) were the brightest/boldest colors 👀 I guess it's just that time of year! 😎☀

I do love the nyx butta bronzers. Haven’t gotten my hands on the blush yet

As someone who only has a few highend products i appreciate this video! You're so great at sharing good makeup at great prices!! Thank you for all your help! ❤

Hi Andre’a , I enjoyed watching this video, hopefully the Milani cream bronzer comes soon to us in Australia, also the Nyx blushes are well. Love Katherine xoxo

I love that you love drugstore!! Thanks for narrowing down your picks for this video, makes my choices easier

Thank you for taking the time and effort to post links to different places for each items.

I LOVE love the new NYX bronzers! I just bought one yesterday. And you’re so right about them blending so easily. Even if you go in with too much product, and get a big brown blob on the cheek, it still blends right out. They’re so soft and silky, and I love the scent! I cannot WAIT to get their blushes. I want all the shades! This is my absolute favorite drugstore bronzer, and I know I’m going to love the blushes. The Elf liquid blushes are amazing too! Love them!

Thank you for mentioning the fragrance, I developed an allergy to synthetic fragrances several years ago ( due to overuse of fragranced products), it helps when I can skip checking out a product recommendation.

Definitely need to try the Nyx blushes and bronzers. Love the elf liquid blushes last all day on me.

Great video Andrea! Thank you for all the time you take in listing all your recommendations and places to buy! 🥰👍

Looking extra pretty here ! I love your videos!

What a gorgeous routine! Need to try this brand!!🥰🥳

I really enjoy your videos, thank you for keeping the beauty community informed!!!

Another wonderful video from you😻 we have the same loves in makeup!

Happy Thursday Everyone And Good Luck

I love the milani cream bronzer, I bought the shade spilling tea, it shears out so beautifully,

I like tubing mascara on my lower lashes. I don’t need length or volume, but I do need something that doesn’t smudge or migrate into my eyes.

Yes, I’m excited about drugstore makeup! Nyx blush and bronzer are chef’s kiss. I also have that brown essence mascara and I love it I also have Milani lip stain, elf bronzing drops , nyx concealer and I love all of them ❤ highly recommend ❤

You really cover all angles for each product 😊

Try the new Wet n wild mascara! I am impressed! Best launch yet! Affordable and budge proof

Love your choices

Your skin looks absolutely flawless! I need you to do my makeup!!! ♥️

Sold me on the la colors lip balms! I no longer wear much lipstick 💄 live a gloss with a hint of color! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I just bought every color of Elf Luminous Putty Blush/Putty Blush. They are a cream to powder formula. All are beautiful. Also have Mililani bronzer. Love ❤️

Outstanding

Thank you for always sharing your adorable favorites :) this always help us find good options (reminder that price does not equals quality always)🎉

I looooove the elf camo liquid blushes

Those colourpop lippies are good.

I NEED the Milani lipstaints🤭💖

I love the lash xtender mascara- I used to use the Thrive one but I find the elf one is a bit easier to work with and it’s far cheaper, which is nice. I do like the elf blush, but I might end up picking up some of those nyx blushes to try. I love the look that the elf liquid blushes, but sometimes they come out a bit more pigmented- they are easy to blend down, but the application is overall more finicky than a simple powder blush.

I’m trying to find the new Rimmel filter drop!! Love drugstore and lux.. but finding my faves in both categories and streamlining my collections;)

I agree that elf should do a liquid camo bronzer 🎉

I agree the butter melt bronzer is just a glow it’s not even glitter at all

The elf tubbing mascara and the one with the pink cap are my holy grail ! I finally found a mascara that doesn’t smear. All mascaras were flaking until I tried those !

You look so beautiful in a red lip!

Hey Andrea what's the dual brush you are using??

18:49 yess the nyx stick is like the nars pot in a stick. I have been taking it w me every single time i go to london and im out all day long to touch up

I love the Essence mascara. I also bought Elf tubing mascara. I live where it gets blazing hot. I usually get raccoon eyes even with no mascara on bottom lashes.

I haven't brought much viral hyped up makeup lately. But the elf liquid blush has been my most worn its blown the glow wands from my collection 😂. Wet n wild liquid blush is coming in hot too. Nyx and milani is on my list. Essence mascara is really good haven't tried the lip oil. I just love the juicy gloss

Feeking Butta also looks v close to that gorgeous bronzy supershock blush that was part of Colourpop's Tinkerbell collection 🤔

Yeah my Nyx bronzer was straight up red and I was highly upset

I need the nyx bronzers and blushes. I always use powder cheek products on top of cream cheek products. It's weird lol bc I do not set the rest of my face with powder like ever. I recently had bangs cut in though so i might start setting my forehead to keep my bangs from looking greasy.

Great Video Andrea Matillano

Just added several of these to cart! ;) Those ColourPop So Juicy plumping gloss bombs look gorgeous--gonna be hard not to buy all the shades!

E.L.F. has been on everyone's neck for the past 5 years. I wish they'd focus a little more on their eyeshadows. They're not bad, but i like a little more color.

How does the Milani cream bronzer compare to the Make Revolution one?

I feel like all makeup from foundation, to powders, blush, contour etc are leaving out that touch of pink. Everything seems so orange. That's why I won't pick up the Milani cream, or a ton of other products. Would love a nice pink/lilac (yes lilac) blush. 💜

You need to try Juvia’s Place Radiance booster!!! I love it! Also About Face the Performer-not sure if that’s drugstore but they do sell it on the drugstore side at ulta

People don’t realize that luxury you pay for the name. ONLY. The Ingredients are mostly the same in a lot of products. I go for how it looks and wear. I have to shop smart , so I am watchful. I love that you show savings and products that actually look and wear amazing ❤

I like the profusion one but I swear it has coconut oil or some kind of coconut extract cuz it breaks me out I have to try this malani one

The elf mascara didn't work for me at all. I've been using it for 3 weeks in hopes that the formula would work better after a it had been open for awhile, but sadly, it didn't improve. It makes my lashes fall instantly, and I only apply one coat :(

❤❤❤❤

Just advise well not really advice. You have a new baby .even though you didn’t carry him you are still bonding with him and believe it or not your hormones will be affected. So this could be part of your break out.💕very common .

With Naturium Skincare coming to Ulta, I am tempted to try some products. I haven't tried anything from the brand, due to the deceitful way that Susan Yara reviewed the products, and as we all know turned out to be the founder. I am curious to know since selling the company to ELF, if her greedy little paws will still receive revenue from the brand. Does anyone have any insight on this?

I’ve used the NYX bronzer twice and the scent is already gone. I mean, like, why put it in there at all? 😂

I wear only drugstore makeup now.

Could you please zoom in for clips when your are applying makeup, so we can see? I can’t tell if your mascara looks great or if you even put it on because I’m watching on my phone and you’re kinda far away from the camera.

I smelled the NYX butter bronzer - one sniff and NOPE! Way too strong and too vanilla/coconut. Headache city.

Tbh i never seen u b4 but im looking for affordable products that act as great as the OVER PRICED ones that all the Influencers try to act lk if we dont have them we aint sh** .Well im SOO DONE with these LOSER Influencers Who tried to make us feel bad? Because we are not wearing the product that they are wearing. And they have so many subscribers. It's ridiculous. Look, I am barely able to pay myriad. I'm living paycheck to paycheck. As the average American is at this point, my rent went up $400 and 1 month. It's disgusting. Yeah, my apartment never had anything done to it in that year yet they actually called me and said. Hey, we're gonna go up on your rent and it was actually after I had to get a new car because the car I had that I had no carping me on was having too many problems so I had to get a new car so. 3 weeks after I got my used new car, that now is $400 a month. And I didn't have a car payment before. My landlord had a nerve to say that they were going up $400 on the rent because they said. Well, that's what things are going for now. You know inflation, yeah, implaation. I wanted to kill them. I tell ya not good. I feel like they screwed me. I'm struggling, I'm literally drowning. Just like every other American probably is so at this point I am done with influencers going. Oh, you gotta have this $60 primer. It's ridiculous. They're getting all that crap for free. And I'm not going to buy into their b. S because the companies are giving it to them for free. Hey, I'm glad somebody's hooking you up during this dam. Timer, the the world is all broke. We're all hurt in, so if you got a way to get freaking companies to give you money. Go ahead, girl, go ahead. Boy, do it. But I'm not buying it, so I am loving when somebody is honest about a product that is better or just the same as easy Dick u. S price trucks, so I'm gonna tell you right now. I pay for your name. No more your name don't mean crap. What I care about is Pam. My bills. And looking good while I'm doing it, so I'm not king. There's some company's name and for some company to make money off me. Obviously any company is going to make money operate. But I'm not gonna pay like $40 for something that I can get for $10 at the drugstore. It's dawn. And I think that these expensive companies, they better start putting out a lot more, giving it a lot more. Because at this point we is broke. We do not have the money to just be buying it. Here's your name, your name. Don't mean crap to us. We want good products we wanna look good. We're done pang overpriced. Cause your name, your name, don't mean crap

OMG Andrea! I got the Colourpop gloss balms from your recommendations and I'm obsessed. It's like a lip gloss, lip balm, and juicy lipstick all rolled into one. This is probably my favorite launch of 2024 so far besides buttermelt bronzer. 🤌
