10 Under £10

Hello Beauty Lovers!
I've seen some other bloggers do this and thought it'd be quite fun. A lot of the make up that gets featured on Instagram and beauty blogs tends to be the higher end, more expensive products, but some cheaper make up is just as good as high end make up and deserves a little more attention. A lot of the make up I use everyday is from the high street/drugstore and is under £10.

  1. Makeup Revolution 'Fortune Favours The Brave' Eyeshadow Palette (£9.99)
    I loved this palette for a very long time, and still do! I just use my newer palettes instead now. This palette has all the colours you could ever want and the pigmentation is fantastic. Definitely recommend this palette. I did a blog post about it when I first got it, you can read about it and see swatches here.
  2. Maybelline Lash Sensational Primer (£7.99)
    I was never a big fan of lash primers as I had decent lashes to begin with, but I love the Lash Sensational mascara so much that I knew this would be good. It just bulks up my lashes before mascara and just saves time as you don't need to spend as much time applying mascara (I still do though, obvs). I did a blog post about it a little while ago (here)
  3. Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara (£8.99)
    This is my all time favourite mascara, I've gone through endless tubes and will be devastated if they discontinue it. It lengthens, thickens and separates lashes so well and paired with the Lash Sensational Primer, it's a dream come true!
  4. Maybelline Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner (£8.99)
    I've been using this since I was about 15 (now 22) and have loved it ever since. A few years ago they changed the formula and the brush so I don't love it as much as I did when I was first using it, but I've gotten over it (just about). I've tried other brands and they just do not compare to this. It's really black, really smooth and lasts literally all day. I wear it in my waterline too and it stays put until I take it off.
  5. GOSH Forever Eye Shadow Crayon 'Light Copper 03' (£6.29)
    This is another product that I've been using for years. I use it as my eyeshadow base as it's so creamy - the eyeshadow really clings to it and sparkles. It blends nicely and is really pigmented, you could wear it on its own. 
  6. Elf Mineral Infused Face Primer (£7.50)
    I included this in my Forever Repurchase List (here) along with a lot of these products, because it's the best primer I have used to date. It smooths my skin and prevents it from getting super oily. It makes my foundation blend out nicely and last much longer. I prefer it to the Benefit Porefessional and the Smashbox Photo Finish.
  7. Makeup Revolution Blush 'Sugar' (£1)
    I love this blush so much that I wrote a dedicated blog post about it (here). It's really pigmented, blendable and lasts well throughout the day. For only £1 you'd be mad not to try it!
  8. Gerard Cosmetics Lip Pencil 'Immortal' (£8)
    I originally bought this from the Gerard Cosmetics website to go with the Immortal Hydra Matte Liquid Lipstick but I found the liquid lipstick too drying. Luckily this pencil works really well with my Revlon Red lipstick. The pencil is long lasting and creamy - everything you could want from a lip liner! (When you search for this on Beauty Bay it comes up as £8 but when you click on it, it comes up as £12, so do what you wish with that info!)
  9. Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick 'Revlon Red' (£7.99)
    My all time favourite red lipstick that I always go back to. The formula is creamy, so pigmented and very long lasting. Its the perfect red lippie. 
  10. GOSH Velvet Touch Lipstick 'Temptation' (£7.99)
    I first bought this lipstick on a whim a few years ago to match a pair of shoes I was going to wear to a party. It's a vibrant pink and is really creamy and pigmented. It stains my lips when I take it off at the end of the day and to me, that's a sign of a good lipstick!
Those are my 10 under £10 that I feel need more recognition!
