THen blend with a clean blending brush so that it looks smooth

$1, I love the Dollar store! I love getting things for a dollar and I absolutly love good products that are just $1. These products aren’t cheap, they are just inexpensive! Today I thought I would share with you my favorite Products that are just $1! These work great and like i said they cost almost nothing!
Products: Lets start with Eyes….
Elf $1 Brightening eye palettes: Drama,Ivy, & Glam : These have great pigmentation, blend easy & last all day plus they have a fantastic variety of shades!
Elf $1 Natural Lashes: THese are great they are natural and well they are LASHES what more can I say.. These are a great alternative for someone who is experimenting with lashes because they are so inexpensive..
Wet N wild Color Icon Eye pencils: These pencils are creamy, soft, pigmented and I have never had a problem with them.. You do have to sharpen them put they look great in waterline or smudged on lower lash line : did I mention they have some fun colors!
Profusion Brightening eye palettes: I found these at Walgreens around the Holidays like christmasy time, I have shade 01 which is more of a bronzy palette & 06 which is a pinky palette. These are great eyeshadows plus they can also work as a bronzy cheeky color or pinky cheek color. you can also use them as a nice highlight if you just concentrate on the lighter colors. THese are great palettes they are soft, great pigmentation & I’m super excited to see them again this year! Keep an Eye out on your local Walgreens!
Now lets go to Cheeks!
Elf $1 Blush: The two colors I have are Tickled Pink & Glow.. Tickled Pink is a gorgeous pink with some sparkles here and there , Glow is an orangey bronzy pink with shimmer. Sort of a peachy tone.
I added in these cute cuffs from the dollar store they are slap on and a great accesorie for a halloween costume ( I used these ones for my catwoman halloween tutorial, check it out if you havent!)
Elf All Over Face Color: Pink Lemonade this is a great cream product that is multi purpose you can use it on cheeks lips or eyes! I actually used this as a blush on my wedding day its absolutely beautiful. Elf Shimmering Facial Whips: Color Citrus & Golden Peach, This are also multi purpose they can be used for a blush, highlight , lipgloss ,eyeshadow or you can add them to your foundation for a blowy, dewy look! They have a great shade variety tot fit any need..
Next Are Lips…
Wet N Wild $1 Lipsticks: These are great they have a unique silver sheen to them and some have shimmer, but they are super gorgeous I actually wore the pink one Shade 502A in my products I regret buying video its a great pink/purple shade! The bronzy one is the shade 547 B Nyc Lipsticks : these ones are great too I have mousse which is a nude lipstick that is super creamy and has a bit of a shine finish , no shimmer at all..THen I have mahogany which is a deep vampy color that I used in my catwoman tutorial, Last this beautiful angel pink with a little bit of a frost finish called Petal perfect for winter time if paired up with a white sweater..
Elf Lipsticks $1 Essential line: THese are great lipsticks I i was really surprised by the quality my favorite one is Fearless which is a beautiful true red, this lipstick has a staining effect sos it is perfect for a date or night out! The other shades I i have are Nostalgic which is a nude & Coral They have some great shades to pick from and better yet they are only $1!
Elf Liquid lipstick & Lip glosses, : As you can tell I have lots of these , they both pretty much wear the same like a lipgloss, except the liquid lipsticks have more pigmentation, but with that said the lip glosses aren’t super sheer either they are creamy and soft not stick at all!
Last Nail Polish….
First off I have Wet N Wild WIld Shine Nailpolishes : These are so fantastic, the formula is smooth and pigmented You can get by with one coat thats how pigmented they are!
