Budget Beauty: A Makeup Artist's Affordable Makeup Must-Haves




Are you tired of spending a fortune on makeup products that promise the world but fail to deliver? When it comes to makeup, quality doesn't always have to come with a hefty price tag. I've curated a list of my top five affordable makeup essentials that are sure to elevate your beauty game without breaking the bank.

  1. Essence Mascara: Get the lashes of your dreams without splurging! For long, voluminous lashes without the high-end price, Essence Mascara is a game-changer. Its lightweight formula adds length and volume without clumping, giving you the perfect fluttery lashes for any occasion. As a makeup artist, I go through mascaras quickly. I was delighted to find Essence mascaras, which are both budget-friendly and effective. I always advise my clients that you can get great results without spending a lot on mascara and these are great examples of that!

  2. NYX Bare with Me Serum Concealer: A multitasking marvel that provides excellent coverage while also caring for your skin. Its lightweight, serum-like texture blends seamlessly, covering imperfections and brightening the under-eye area for a fresh, natural look. While I don't carry this item in my kit, I love it for personal use. It is creamy, doesn't get patchy or dry and a little goes a long way.

  3. LA Girl Color Correctors: Say goodbye to redness, dark spots, and uneven skin tone with LA Girl Color Correctors. These affordable color correctors come in a variety of shades to target specific areas, helping you achieve a flawless base for your makeup. These correctors are used on every client I work with. They fix dark circles, redness, and more without having to reach for high-coverage products.

  4. Maybelline Lifter Gloss: For luscious, hydrated lips, Maybelline Lifter Gloss is it! Its high-shine formula is infused with hyaluronic acid to keep your lips looking plump and youthful. Lifter Gloss goes beautifully over your natural lips or lipstick for a tint of shine and color.

  5. NYX Lip Liners: Define and enhance your lips with NYX Lip Liners. These creamy liners come in a range of shades, helping your lipstick last longer and preventing feathering. I always carry a few of these in my kit and they work just as well as the higher-name brands.
