Can you believe it’s already Tuesday night? What was the highlight of your day? Mine was having lunch in the city with my friend Janice, an awesome national makeup artist for NARS. She shared some application tips for products in their permanent collection. I’m definitely gonna talk about them, but I still have some accompanying pictures to prep.

In the meantime, how about a giveaway to celebrate the fact that we’re already almost half way to Friday? 🙂

  4. I love Maybelline’s XXL Curl Power Volume + Length Washable Microfiber Mascara. It curls and lengthens my lashes for a cool seven bucks.

  5. I love Clean & Clear Deep Cleaning Astringent with 2.0% salicylic acid. It really cleans out my pores well. It once even got rid of some junk that was giving me atopic dermatitis that my doctor didn’t even realize was still in there!

  8. I freakin’ love my HIP eyeliner in eggplant.
    I just got it because a lot of people recommended it and I LOVEEE IT!
    I’m a Bobbi Brown liner girl but the price does get pretty crazy since I go through those pots really fast….
    I tried Jane, it’s cheap and it seems to last longer because it’s sorta dry or something. But Jane is no longer available at drugstores 🙁 So I tried HIP!
    AND I FREAKIN’ LOVE IT!
    It’s not as good quality as MAC fluidline or Bobbi Brown but still I adore it.

  9. Hmm… I’ve recently stopped using drugstore brands as much, but I swear by Curel Hand Lotion. Its the only lotion that never feels greasy to me. And I never feel bad for slathering it on since its so cheap!

    I wonder if the Pantene is safe for color treated hair? My hair has been looking a bit weak for a while…

  10. Hi!
    One of my current favorite drugstore products is Noxzema Continuous Clean Deep Cleansing Mask. It’s just perfect for my very oily skin because it contains bentonite clay, which cleans up the excess oil and helps to improve my skin’s texture. I use this product twice a week (for five minutes only) and it really does make a difference. My skin appears more even. The smell is not fantastic, but I’d say it’s okay. It does smells like citrus. I’d say that this product is made for oily skins only because the citrus formula gives skin a light tingling sensation that could possibly be too strong for ladies with sensitive/dry skin. Sadly, I think that this cleansing mask is being discontinued. I’ll try to find another product that contains bentonite clay to replace it.

  16. My favorite drugstore item is a recent purchase.

    I love Sally Hansens Luminizing Face Primer.

    It brightens up my face no matter how dull I feel!

    Love it!

  18. I love Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion. I’ve been using it for about a year and half and I have fewer rash and/or hive breakouts. It’s very gentle and deeply moisturizing.

  25. My favorite drugstore product would be covergirl lash blast mascara whaterproof…I love the way this mascara makes my lashes look very full and long

    Reply

  27. I love Neutrogena Deep Clean cream cleanser. It helps with the acne but it doesn’t foam unlike other acne cleansers, so it doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin. Plus it’s also non drying which helps with my aging but wayward acneic complexion.

    Reply

  28. second on the hip liner in eggplant! but seriously my fav ever ever ever is the dark chocolate and peppermint scented lipgloss from palmer’s cocoa butter formula. i cannot say enough about it! i get really dry, flaky lips and this is the one thing that restores them without getting me addicted/having gross withdrawl like with carmex (ewww). it has the shiniest, smoothest finish of any drugstore gloss, and it’s only $2.

  30. my favorite drug store product is Clean&Clear Dual Action Moisturizer. I have been using it since my freshmen year in high school in 2003, i love how it feels so light and doesn’t leave a oily residue on my face.

    Reply

  34. I love Aveeno’s Oatmeal bar. I’ve been using it forever, it’s the only bar cleanser that doesn’t leave my face feeling sticky or unclean or too dry afterwards.

    Reply

  43. I couldn’t live without Clean & Clear oil blotting sheets. When I think of all the years I dashed to the bathroom and tried to soak up the greasies with toilet paper…!!!!

    Reply

  45. Isn’t it fitting that I’m entering this contest when my fave drugstore product is from Olay? I absolutely adore the Fragrance Free Daily Regenerating Serum. I have very oily skin but it still needs a little moisture, and the serum contains just enough for me! It’s ultra light and dries with a matte finish – what more could an oily girl ask for?

    Reply

  46. I love Wet and Wild Eyeshadow palettes. They are beautiful. They offer lots of options. And the pigmentation is surprisingly rich. All of this for the low price of $4.99. BTW-It also has a fab mirror!

    Reply

  50. I love Neutrogena anti wrinkle/anti acne face cleanser. It is perfect for my crazy skin that is starting to see fine lines, yet is also oily. I follow up with an oil free Neutrogena moisturizer with SPF. Love it!!

  53. I’m a drugstore addict! Cleansers and potions all from drug stores. But my favorite must-have, everyday drugstore staple is the simple Q-Tip. I couldn’t go a day without them.

  55. I love Aveeno body lotion. It absorbs so fast & doesn’t leave me greasy feeling. I like the kind with SPF 15 for less-clothing days and original for the winter.

    Reply

  56. I adore drugstore lotions and creams. Aveeno’s lotion and Cetaphil may be the best discoveries I’ve ever found there.

    Reply

  57. Softlips! I must have about 10 little tubes of this in my purses, at work, on my nightstand, in my car. It is the perfect lipbalm and makes my lips feel fantastic.

  58. I really love my Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser. It leaves my skin smooth without drying it. Perfect for removing make up too!!

    Reply

  64. I love Revlon Beyond Natural Foundation, Maybelline Make up remover & Garnier’s eye roll on because it’s such a breeze to apply. Also CG Lash blast, Olay Regenerist Serum.

  69. My favorite drug store beauty product would definitely have to be Clean & Clear Cleanser, because it really helps to clean deep down to my pores and leave me with refreshed feeling every time I use it. GUrl, at $4, that pretty damn good lol.

  70. After being a makeup snob for years, I am now an official drugstore makeup addict after being open-minded and watching EmilyNoel on youtube. I switched from my beloved and expensive Philosopy Purity face cleanser to Neutrogena Sensitive Skin face wash and am so very happy with the cleansing and value this product offers. Go drugstore beauties go!! Would love to try te Olay line 🙂 Thanks for the chance.

    Reply

  71. I’m currently loving the Yes To Carrots line – especially the Hand and Elbow Moisturizing Cream. I keep it on my desk and use it all day long!

    Reply

  73. I swear by Rimmel’s eye makeup remover. It costs like 4 bucks and removes all my eye makeup without having to pull or tug at my skin… even the waterproof stuff!

    Reply

  75. I love so many of Aveeno’s products. The sunblock, SPF 30, did not break me out at all, and their cleanser always left my face glowing healthily.

    Reply

  77. One of my favorite drugstore brand products is the Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash Daily Scrub. The formula has a really nice tingling sensation when first applied. I have eczema, but this stuff is great for my super sensitive skin! I also love Cetaphil skin care products. They recently released a couple items which I’m looking forward to trying out.

  78. I love Aquaphor & have been using it for over 15 years….i put it on my entire body..plus they make little travel size tubes whixch are perfect to stick in your car, purse, pocket, etc…

  79. My fav drugstore product is surely Revlon ColorStay liquid foundation. It’s perfect! It covers like a miracle and it’s not expensive at all. One bottle can last me up to one year without a problem and with everyday use!

  82. My fave drugstore buy is Neutrogena Fresh Foaming Cleanser. It takes off every trace of my makeup and doesn’t leave my skin dry. Love it.

    Reply

  85. Sea Breeze astringent. Even after purity made simple used with my Clarisonic face brush, a swipe of this toner always comes up with a little something on the cotton pad that would have been left behind in my pores. This does not dry me out and makes my face feel super clean and smooth, ready for moisturizer.

  86. Hi Karen! I love many drugstore products but one that I just discovered that I’m really loving is the St. Ives Mineral Lotion. It moisturizes wonderfully and is so lightweight.

    Reply

  87. I really liked the Olay Regenerist Daily Regenerating serum. Worked a treat but I’m all out! My skin is missing it, I would love to win 😀

  88. Being a MAC fan, I rarely delve into the drugstore brand realm. However, I am in love with Cover Girl Smoothers Concealer Illuminator. I love the way it brightens my eye area…:)

    Reply

  89. Hmm, my favorite drugstore product would have to be Queen Helene’s Mint Julup Masque. It’s been a staple in my skincare regimen for years! I love the cooling sensation of the mask, and it really does suck out impurities from your pores. Best of all, it’s only $3 at my local Long’s Drugs!

    Reply

  94. I love herbal essences shampoo. I currently switch between 3 different kinds… no flaking way for the dry winter months; color me happy for my colored hair and total twisted (very yummy scent) for the days when I feel like going au natural. I might switch to the new tousle me softly, since my hair is wavy and not curly.

    Reply

  99. i use that moisturizer too!!
    haha anyways my favorite drugstore product would have to be loreal voluminous in carbon black…i like alot of loreals products actually.

    Reply

  106. I LOVE my Rimmel nail polish in Celebrity Bash.
    It is the perfect deep, blood red cream.

    My other drug store fave is Olay moisturizer with SPF 15 (tried the 30 once – too thick). My grandmother started me on sunscreen everyday when I was thirteen. I’m nearly 30 now and don’t have the slightest inkling of a line. Dark circles on the other hand…. but I blame those on sleep deprivation that comes with having kids! 😉

  108. My favorite drugstore product would have to be St. Ives Invigorating Apricot Scrub. Hands down, this has to be the best face wash I have ever used — been using it for years! I always try another wash, but continually gravitate back to St. Ives.

    Reply

  109. I never leave home without my Burt’s Bees chapstick (aka Burt’s Bee sting – due to the tingly feeling it gives your lips)! I even put it in my basket when I go on a bike ride.

    Reply

  110. I love the Almay make-up remover pads, too. I don’t use the cowsmetics from the drugstore, but with the change in the economy, I am trying new things from there.

    Reply

  112. I love Eucerin SPF 30 face lotion! Not greasy at all, it moisturizes just enough and provides excellent spf coverage. My HG sunscreen!

    Reply

  113. I love my Olay Sensitive SPF 15 lotion, I use it daily, it absorbs quickly and helps combat my dry skin. I’ve repurchased it many times!

    Reply

  116. My favourite drugstore product is Vaseline’s Redefining Renewal body lotion. It is probably the best lotion I have ever used! It contains AHAs, so it prevents razor bumps and ingrowns when I use it after I shave. Fantastic.

    Reply

  119. My favorite drugstore product would be CoverGirl Exact Eyelights Mascara! Its wonderful and it really brings out my eye color which is AMAZING!:)

    Reply

  123. Organic Wear tinted moisturizer by Physician’s Formula is da best! Ever since I first tried it out I can’t live without it. It’s easy on the wallet and as close as you can get to a perfect product.
    It’s 100% natural, has SPF 15, doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin, moisturizes without feeling oily, provides the perfect amount of light-medium coverage, evens out my skin tone, and looks totally natural (I haaate looking like I’m wearing foundation).
    I would definitely recommend it to anyone who’s not looking for a heavy coverage makeup.

    Reply

  126. My favorite drugstore products are Neutrogena Clean and Clear bodywash, Max Factor 2000 Calorie mascara, and some regular old aveeno lotion which I love love love…

    Reply

  127. I actually love the Olay Regenerist Serum (I’m in my 20’s…who cares if I think they intend it for people my mom’s age!). I wear it under my tinted moisturizer, it leaves my face feeling “just washed” instead of “tired, I-work-in-a-stuffy-office” all day!

    Reply

  130. I always use Garnier Nutrisse Moisturiser with SPF. It’s cheap, non-greasy and does the trick. I’m all for using drug store products. I see no point in using an expensive product that is no better than a cheaper one just because it has a fancy label.

    Reply

  132. Cetaphil face wash it a classic and the Olay line of products never disappoint.

    “Olay, Olay. Olay, Olay. Feeling hot, hot, hot!”

    Reply

  133. I love Vanicream Lite Lotion. My doctor actually recommended this to me. It’s frangrance free, dye free, paraben free, etc. The consistency is perfect, especially for moisturizing before makeup. It sinks in without a leaving a film or residue. I can’t say enough great things about it!

  135. i LOVE neutrogena healthy defense daily moisturizer, spf 30 or 45. it’s so phenomenal without being greasy or making me break out. love love love

  136. I must have Clean & Clear’s oil blotting sheets because I’m a grease factory. I also like Aquaphor for cuticles and lips right before bed.

  137. One of my favorite drugstore items is the Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti-Wrinkle cream with SPF 15 in the original formula. Perfect daytime moisturizer!! Absolute MUST HAVE! 🙂

  142. I love the Neutrogena body oil and the Dove Go Fresh Energizing body wash! Both make my skin soft and smooth and feel absolutely luxurious. Great for drugstore products!

  145. L’oreal Sublime Bronze Self Tanner is the bomb!
    I can even use it on my face and it’s never broken me out. I love this stuff!!!

    Reply

  146. My favourite drugstore product is the L’Oréal concealer pen Touche Magique. I’ve been into mineral makeup and in general I prefer it, but I could never find a mineral concealer that works as well as this one does for me. It’s easy to apply, covers my dark eye circles without highlighting them and minimizes eye lines. And in a pinch, if I forget to pack eye primer, it works for a few hours (it creases sooner than I would like, but again, in a pinch it works).

  155. Love Olay products but a recent find was a Walgreens product I found for 50 cents! I have been getting away from petroleum-based products and found this great Beeswax lip balm with a 2 for a dollar sale. Stocked up and use it at least 4 times a day!

  177. I’m over the moon about Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque.

    Whenever I have a lurker on my face, I use this mask and the next morning if it isn’t completely gone then it’s diminished.

    Plus,it has sulfur in it, which is used in a lot of expensive prescription acne creams. You definitely get your bang for your buck with this.

  182. My favorite drugstore product is Olay Daily Regenerating Serum LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!! It’s not expensive & makes my skin soo soft. Sometimes don’t even need a mositurizer 🙂

  183. My favorite product (or the one I think works best) is actually a store-brand lotion. But! If I have to choose another, I love Pantene’s smooth shampoo and condition, because it makes my hair shiny and doesn’t tangle it.

    Reply

  187. I love Regenerist and use the Microsculpting serum daily – I haven’t tried any of these, though! How exciting! Thanks for doing the contests, Karen!
