What foundation does Kelly recommend under $10?
Kelly says finding a foundation under $10 is "virtually impossible," but she found one. She recommends the e.l.f. Soft Glam Satin Foundation for $9. Her review: "I gotta say this shit is pretty good. Very lightweight, very buildable. You guys can miss me with that $60 foundation."
What's the best drugstore concealer for $6?
Kelly goes "back to the basics" with the L.A. Girl Pro.Conceal HD Concealer. She notes it was a staple for makeup gurus in 2016. "$6 has such a good shade range and like babe, I use these for everything," she says. "I use it to cut my crease. I would use a darker shades as bronzer. I mean, it's just a great product and for $6."
What cream bronzer is under $5?
For cream bronzer, Kelly says "we gotta go with Essence." She's a longtime fan of the Essence Baby Got Bronze Liquid Bronzer. At $4.99, she asks, "Have you ever found a cream bronzer for under $5? No the fuck you haven't."
What's the best drugstore setting powder?
Kelly admits this pick goes over the $10 budget by 99 cents, but says it's worth it. She calls the Maybelline Fit Me Loose Finishing Powder "the best setting powder ever." Her praise: "The most full coverage, creamy. Mmm, like I can't even describe to you how good this powder is."
What's a good $9 powder bronzer?
For powder bronzer, Kelly recommends the Revolution Beauty Mega Bronzer for $9. "Look at how ginormous this thing is," she says. "You will never run out of this. I find that it's not patchy or cakey and it blends out really easily."
What eyeliner does Kelly use most often?
"I don't really talk about what eyeliner I use often," Kelly admits, "but if I'm wearing eyeliner 9 times out of 10 It's the NYX Epic Ink Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner." She says, "This stuff is so good. They have a really fine tint. It's the eyeliner that I'm using today, Fire."
What's a good drugstore setting spray for $5?
Kelly returns to Essence for setting spray, recommending the Essence Fix & Last 18H Long-Lasting Make-Up Fixing Spray for $4.99. "Honestly, all of them so good," she says. "I feel like it makes your skin look just like really hydrated and it also helps melt all that makeup."
What are the best cheap lip products?
Kelly shares several affordable lip favorites:
- e.l.f. Cream Glide Lip Liner for $3: "I mean babes, you just can't beat that price."
- Essence Hydra Kiss Lip Oil in Pink Champagne for $4.99: "My favorite shade is Pink Champagne, the perfect like pinky tone with like a dark brown lip liner."
- Revolution Beauty Pout Bomb Plumping Gloss: "Super pigmented, super thick But it's not goopy."
- e.l.f. Glow Reviver Melting Lip Balm for $9: "It's supposed to kind of be like a summer Friday's dupe, but honestly, I think they're even better."
