Throughout the teenage years, I experimented so much with makeup trends, finding what looked the best on me, and that was also super affordable. Now that I am older I stick to the same types of makeup routine just about every day. As a broke college student, I limit my beauty purchases to drug-store price, although I am constantly finding myself daydreaming about all of the designer makeup at Nordstrom, Macy’s or Sephora every once in a while. These are the makeup beauty products that I use each day that are affordable, and still give you that designer look.

Each morning I start off by applying the liquid foundation to my face for all day concealing. Once the liquid foundation is applied and rubbed in, I apply the light face powder across my eyelids and the rest of my face, followed by the bronzing powder and happy booster blush. After face makeup, I move on to eye makeup by starting off with the Covergirl eyeshadow palette, using the dark colors across my eyelids, and the white color in the inner corners of my eyes to give that fresh, and awake look. I then take the eyeliner pencil and line the tops of my eyes and, with the liquid liner, give small cat wings on the sides. Then complete the eyes by applying the mascara to my top and bottom lashes. I finish off my makeup by gently brushing my eyebrows, applying the POREfessional cream to my nose and gently rubbing it in, and applying blemish concealer to any acne. Once complete, you have a ready for the day look.
