Awesome Drugstore Makeup! | Old Favorites & Fall Finds

[@lauramacknick1116]

I love the satisfaction of finding drugstore gems far more than a higher end version.

[@ScrubNSqueeze]

Same. 😀

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

100% agree Laura!😁❤️😉

[@kekkelpenneypeckeltoot5700]

Agree completely and it’s usually easier to do!!

[@janetseidlitz5976]

My kids actually preferred to get Halloween at home. They got their favorite candies, a fun kid-friendly dinner, and we usually watched a movie. You don't have to go overboard, just have fun with them, let them dress up (you should too they love that). Play a card or board game or encourage them to do that after dinner. Have the older kids take a toy or candy to their room and have the little ones knock for trick or treat.

[@starlasell5698]

Let Charlie dress up, then hide candy all over the house for her to find and put into her Halloween bag. Decorate spooky with lights low and Halloween music playing! 🤗

[@amandad3838]

At Easter we of course couldn't go to any Easter Egg hunts, so some of the Mom's in our Neighborhood we packed thousands ( maybe hundreds 😉) of eggs with candy and all the houses with kiddos we hid them throughout the yards. It was so sweet to watch. For Halloween we're doing Trunk- or- Treat to try to still Social Distance and have the little ones be able to still have a trick or treat experience.

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

That is such a fun idea Starla! She loves hiding her own stuff!😄❤️❤️😁

[@starlasell5698]

@@MandyLeaBeauty That's funny...then she would probably enjoy it! 😅

[@callmeaddymakeup]

We missed trick or treat a few years ago because we where moving. We had my daughter trick or treat threw the house. One of us would go into a room to hand out 🍬 to her. It was two fold because she was born blind, so she learned the layout of the house too.

[@sharonstarr841]

Our son was born blind as well and we used to do the same kinds of things with him. Brings a different perspective on everything doesn't it?! 🍃🍁🍃

[@callmeaddymakeup]

It really does. I dyed my hair once when she was little. I thought it wouldn't make a difference to her. She got scared because I didn't smell like mommy. It's amazing how much they teach you and what we take for granted.

[@camilaunay9425]

Fall = ❤️. Old favorites = ❤️. Mandy = ❤️ SO MUCH LOVE

[@brennaeidenier6537]

Yes!! 🥰

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

Thanks Cami!😊❤️❤️❤️😁

[@Slolo89]

Hey Mandy! Please never stop the bloopers at the end. One of my favorite parts of your videos! 😁😍

[@anatorres4631]

Halloween for us is trick or treating in our home. Every door my 5yr old will knock and there will be either a surprise behind the door or a family member handing him candy. As long as he has his costume on and gets treats, he's good 👍

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

That sounds like a great idea! We may do something similar!😁 Thanks Ana!❤️❤️❤️

[@natalielopez7173]

I live in Los Angeles and Halloween is basically cancelled. My sister has 3 kids so we're decorating our parents backyard and having a little Halloween party. Hiding little candy bags similar to an Easter egg hunt. Not the same, but still some fun with candy

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

That’s a bummer but doing something different can be fun too! They will probably never forget it!😁❤️😉 Have fun Natalie!

[@ElleIsForLiving]

Yes, I love that palette and will pull it again thanks to you! Always enjoy hanging out with you girl. We are doing normal Halloween in our neighborhood and hopefully you can with Charlie as well. ♥ Elle

[@GazeldaS]

Beautiful look. I love the Milani Sultry palette and still have mine. I have to tell you that one of the most enjoyable parts of the videos are the out-takes. I love them.

[@Patti-1962]

I have to admit that I don't wear eyeshadow anymore because of crepey eyelids... mature skin. So, I am really glad to see this video! I do love seeing eyeshadow palettes.❤

[@josettegillam8129]

I love Melissa. She's how i found your channel and im so glad i did.

[@maureengreen617]

That does it. I'm digging out my "pure passion" too! I haven't reached for it because pinks make me look like I've been crying, lol, but it looks so beautiful on you, I'll try it again with exactly the shades you used. Thank you for always providing a wearable look for every day, no matter what the color. As for Halloween, since children aren't born with a love of holidays, and they learn the fun from us, whatever you do to make this one festive for Charlie, she will love. I do like the idea of borrowing the easter egg hunt idea for Halloween candy. Why not? Everything's different this year. Might as well roll with it. :)

[@cherylbrendish3268]

I live in a village in Cornwall in the UK. The live have decided that we all get pumpkins, carve them, out them in our windows or on the porch and the parents go around the village with their children and when the children spot a pumpkin, the parents give them a sweet. I’m also going to do a pumpkin and make holes in the top and push lollipops in so it looks like scary hair! Love your videos...thank you :)

[@myaccount5362]

What a doll baby that little girl is 🥰🥰🥰

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

Thanks Tonya!😊

[@brittanyfickling7451]

Great idea to pull this pallet back out...this was my go to for so long. Definitely going to pull it back out 🥰

[@annenilsen2665]

I still have 3 of the Milani palettes, but they live in my travel makeup case. And since we haven’t travelled at all (COVID), the Milani palettes have been sorely neglected. I’m glad you featured them because it motivated me to use them today!

[@KKira07]

I just love your bloopers at the end ... I always look forward to the end of your videos for that and your little moments with your kids are precious 🥰🥰🥰

[@rhondahatfield4021]

Ok..I have to say this before watching..your skin is gorgeous! And today's makeup..stunning😍can't wait to view the products used!

[@YizzieB]

Just looooove drugstore stuff !! Looved your stuff ! I have to try out that Milani glow, heard so much of it !

[@kellyhirsch8542]

I love all of your picks! I did a deep dive into skin care and makeup as I have entered my 50s and discovered you, Mrs. Melissa and some other wonderful people. I just love your channel and you are so informative and funny. I have learned so much from you and your videos are one of the highlights of my week. I realized as a busy teacher and mom that I hadn't really bought much new makeup in years. My first discovery was the Milani palettes - the Most Loved Mattes. I just love them. I have the other three palettes and like some of the other ladies on this post, I think I need this one too :-) You will figure out something fun to do with Charlie. It will be special because this is a different kind of year so you guys can have a different kind of fun :-)

[@francheskabaxley7282]

I love your bloopers at the end!! ♥️♥️

[@christinajackson2662]

I’m with you, struggling this Halloween with two kiddos in prime trick-or-treat age. I read some suggestions from the CDC and I think we’re going to hang candy ghosts in the trees for any trick or treaters who do come by, then dress up and hide other treat goodies in our big yard for my kids to do a flashlight search, similar to an Easter Egg hunt, but spooky themed. We’ll do candy, but probably some slightly nicer treats too to make up for not trick-or-treating. Then a Halloween movie-thon and maybe make candy apples and popcorn balls.

[@angelag669]

Mandy, thanks so much for the video and the look. I also have this palette in my collection and have not used in a while. I love my Milani palettes! I will break this one out for fall. I hope you can find some fun things for Charlie to do for Halloween. I always loved it even as a grownup when my cousin's kids were small (as I have none of my own). We used to have a family get together and make dinner and take the kids trick or treating.

[@TimiSterr]

did I buy the Milani palette while watching the video? yes. yes, I did. and I think it's a totally reasonable purchase on a Sunday night 😅

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

😄Have fun with them! They are great!❤️❤️❤️

[@Coffee-911]

Tímea Cheipesh I think there was probably a run on these after watching Mandy ... Mines on its way as well!

[@architadesia]

Another Colourpop 7 days look please , youre the only one that give wearable looks with so many variety, i only buy pallete if its in your 7 days 7 looks eyeshadow list 😆😆😆

[@Grizzly_Lover]

I totally forgot I had this palette until you mentioned it. I love Milani. Looks like I will be wearing this palette today. I am perplexed why I haven't

[@WriterSnider]

Ohhh, that blush!!!

[@ayricahzuccato8499]

Great look on you! Our church is still having our trunk or treat, and that's good enough for my 3 and 12 year old 👌🏻

[@sari5494]

You have incredible skin - is it even more perfect than before? How is that even possible 🤔

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

Thanks Sari!😊

[@marileedoesmakeup393]

Such a perfectly blended look!

[@zmedina87]

im studying to be an anthropologist so we are taking this time to teach our son other forms of celebration during halloween then adding some hidden candies around the house for him to find just to give him some fun

[@addiewoodcroft]

So pretty and soft...I do have the Milani palettes...I'll definitely have to pull that one out for the fall...those were really awesome palettes and I can't imagine why Milani would discontinue them.

[@toniagarcia2885]

😂😂😂😂😂" butt end" LMAO...never heard that term to describe a sponge ...lol...u r so cute

[@sharonainseattle]

I never did buy any of these palettes but just did while watching you😁..... also that blush. Love the look you created too!!! Thank you for a simple, chatty and easy to watch video, I so look forward to watching you!

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

Thanks Sharona!😁❤️❤️❤️

[@kerrysmith887]

Love love love your drugstore videos! Love good drugstore finds!!

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

Thanks Kerry!😁❤️❤️

[@amydaniels6442]

The moment you said you were from UT I immediately subscribed! ❤️

[@rachaelkennedy250]

I adore your looks and those colours are perfection!

[@BonnieGreene]

Hi Mandy! Since you mentioned you like the L'oreal sponge, it got me thinking, perhaps you could do a video comparing drugstore brushes or sponges. Just a suggestion, would love to see it ❤

[@sharonstarr841]

I love that pallet! I was lucky to pick up a back up not long ago at Walmart for $5.00. I should have bought 2 more!🍃🍁🍃🍁🍃

[@nataliehughes4143]

You have gorgeous cheekbones, Mandy. Have a blessed Sunday.

[@cfsfibromom]

Love your makeup look so much!! I have all of those Milani palettes except for the Pure Passion. After watching your video I really want that one too!

[@gingergirl8797]

I need to try more Milani and Essence products. You look lovely and call ready.

[@kekkelpenneypeckeltoot5700]

The Morphe brushes with the white brush heads are all so scratchy. The others are ok, but the only ones I’ve kept are the m506 and m507 because finding other brands with those brush sizes. I use a lip brush for my inner corner. It gives me exact placement and I appreciate it!

[@kdlindgren]

I had just gotten the Pure Passion palette out to wear tomorrow when I saw your video pop up in my feed. Great minds think alike! Thanks for the inspiration for tomorrow’s look!

[@erinnswan7063]

Love this look and have these Milani palettes!

[@Krleo247]

Good Lord you are stunning 😍😍😍 Maybelline Age Rewind is my favorite concealer

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

Thanks Krista!😊 It is so great!

[@heididikekingston]

I'm a new fan- love your channel ❤️ Your eye makeup always looks amazing! Would love a tutorial from you on how you make eyes look bigger through application. XoXo

[@denisef3228]

I just decluttered the Bold Obsessions palette and now I want it again. It is so good!

[@dinagoldstein77]

Great video!! I love your eye look 😍

[@robynday6553]

Thank you Mandy - I really enjoyed your video, beautiful eye makeup

[@MamaOwl4]

I literally got rid of my pure passion palette last weekend. I figured it was a couple of years old, and no KZbinrs are using it anymore...or so I thought. I want it back now 😢

[@beautyisforfun5479]

I’d love to see you compare the Milani soft and sultry with the ND glam palette!

[@melissaluvsplease1664]

I bought 2 Juicy Pang liquid blushes 100% because of you and WOW they are stunning!! The staying power and color payoff are amazing. More people should try them. Only 2 liquid/cream blushes I own and I will keep it that way....unless I grab another color from them. *Stunning!!!* *Thanks Mandy*

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

Thanks Melissa! So glad to hear that!❤️😁❤️

[@tammyvaught2210]

I really do love drugstore products but I have to recommend a high end foundation. I wasn’t going to because it’s $60 but it’s just so good I can’t help myself. It’s the new Chanel Les Beiges healthy glow foundation. If you watch Tara Lynn’s review you’ll see how beautiful it is and she’s dead on accurate with everything she says about it. I’m justifying the price because of how beautiful it makes me look and trust me it takes an act of God to make me look beautiful and I use it every day so I definitely didn’t waste my money. I know it’s a lot of money but if you’re willing to splurge I can’t recommend it enough. The Milani palettes are so good but I gave mine to one of my residents I take care of at the nursing home, she would say every day how she wished she had some eyeshadow so I gave her my Milani palettes and she’s loving them. It made me happy to make her happy 😊. Btw Rephr is having a big sale on their brushes right now.

[@mariaaguila6298]

I have all 4 Milani palettes for under $10!! Their website often puts them on sale with a promo code. Pure Passion is also my fave!

[@tanyas6643]

I’ve also used up 2 of the Soft and Sultry palettes by Milani and am hitting pan on several of the shades in my third. Already have 2 more backups... 😉 I also have the Bold Obsession and Most Loved... and am hitting pan on a few shades there, too.

[@nadiacoffey2609]

I have all of those square gold Milani palettes and they are my go to palettes for neutral looks. The quality is so good.

[@alligreen2174]

Typical Utah swing weather.... right?! It was COLD this morning! I’m not ready...

[@suerescino7040]

yes i have the milani pallettes... beautiful colors

[@jcs137]

I pulled my out a month ago and find myself reaching for it everyday. It really is so good and so easy and quick. .

[@najetteroberts5553]

Love your videos. Love hanging with you. Love the eye look too. Always nail the looks! We are going to do a trick for Halloween 🎃🤣. We are going to write up riddles and have them solve them to find their candy. Sorry she won't have the traditional halloween 🎃. Hopefully things get better soon. She is too cute. 🎃💓❣️😻

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

Thanks Najette! That sounds like such a fun idea!😁 Come to think of it it might be fun to switch up the traditions this year and make it memorable!❤️

[@sarahwalden178]

We decided that since we couldn’t trick or treat like usual, this would be the perfect year to do themed group costumes and have a small party. There are three families in our remote learning pod (we each take the kids one day a week) so we’re doing a Harry Potter theme! We have Harry, Ron, Hermione, one of the youngest will be Professor McGonagall, and the little ones are witches! We’re making Halloween treats and playing spooky music and going all out on the theme since we can’t go to houses around the neighborhood! Halloween has always been one of my favorite holidays but I’ve never been able to do a party because of trick or treating, so this is our year! I never bought the Pure Passion palette because it looked exactly like the Violet Voss Holy Grail (that I got in a Boxyluxe) and I may need to pull that out soon-I get so wrapped up in oranges and greens and coppers in the fall, I forget how good deep cranberry and burgundy look as well!

[@corinnestuart7012]

Beautiful. Love this video.

[@rachelweaver7802]

My kid is trick or treating this year. Absolutely no reason why not.

[@dianads9409]

Nice look Mandy perfect for fall. Charlie is so adorable 😍

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

Thanks Diana!❤️😊❤️

[@helenkelly272]

Nothing better than a good drugstore video!

[@TheKaykayshorty09]

I was able to get that Milani pure passions palette from TJ Maxx for only $4.99 back in January or February and I do like it just haven't used it in awhile but was so happy to get my hands on it for that price for sure!

[@jenniferbailey2169]

Perfect fall look!

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

Thanks Jennifer!❤️🍁😁

[@susanppereirasr7283]

I heard a suggestion on the radio and they said do a Halloween piñata which I thought was brilliant. Could be worked into a costumed at home party and other games and fun.

[@maeganfindley7439]

Never foolish! Thank you for being human 🤗 love watching your videos and appreciate your realness 🥰

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

Thanks Meagan!❤️

[@melbee8257]

If you have a microfiber washcloth for cleaning make up off your face, it will also help with self tanner splotches. Amazon has tons of options.

[@deborahkuhl9185]

Funny I just used it this am!! Love this palette. Great fall colors too. Love look you did, as usual. Your gorgeous!!!

[@SaucerJess]

Maybe a spooky egg hunt instead of trick-or-treating? 🧡

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

Great idea!❤️😁😉

[@brittanyfickling7451]

P.S. I am very patiently waiting for the Making Mauves review...I bought it right after you posted that you picked it up. 😁🙃🥰

[@shellteresa778]

I love that milani palette. I need to pull mine out and do a look with it. I wish milani would go bacl to this formula

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

Thanks Teresa!❤️ I feel the same way!

[@CowGirlKat8691]

You could do a scavenger hunt with Charlie [dang that's hard for me to type!] have it end in a candy treasure

[@kiracox9041]

So excited that loads of these are now way more accessible in the UK! Can’t wait to pick some up and try them out ☺️

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

Thanks Kira!❤️😁❤️

[@dazzling_dutchess]

I love my Milani Pure Obsessions palette too!

[@SaucerJess]

Love the old favorites videos! 🧡

[@hissonggirlmoni5706]

Miss Mandy. Just wanna tell you the pink beauty sponge from shop miss A is way better. I also like their eyeshadow brushes and their fat lash mascara (it dries pretty fast but it’s a $1 so I get 3 at a time). I’ve come to realize that the products that are .50 more, bc their give you a foundation, are better. Oh and their skinny brow pencil that dupe the brow wiz is awesome too. 😁

[@jasminebrown7696]

I have a friend group of about 5 couples who all have kids between 1 and 9 years old. For Halloween we are getting all of our families to dress up and pass out candy n a trail that we will set up on one of our friends farm. The grandparents are so excited and so are the kids. This is also great because we don’t have to worry about the candy that the kids get being tampered with. I also want to mention that I live in Georgia and everywhere is pretty much completely open so COVID restrictions have been pretty lax here.

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

That sounds so fun Jasmine!😁❤️❤️

[@TheShannabanana79]

What about doing Halloween candy hunt around the house?! She can still dress up and walk around with a candy bag but now it’s candy hunt!

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

That’s a great idea Shanna! She would love that!❤️😊❤️

[@BeautyBuzzHub]

Love how this look turned out! Now I need that milani eyeshadow palette 🥰💖

[@karenaprile4637]

I used Soft and sultry today! I also have Pure Passion and Bold Obsession. Don't use Pure Passion much, but thanks for an eye look to try!

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

Thanks Karen!❤️

[@natalief9937]

I just opened a new L’Oréal sponge and I think I got a dud. I remember my last one (a while back) being super smooth like you said but this one is definitely more porous, like a kitchen sponge. That was a little dramatic but you know what I mean. I also feel like it soaked up a lot of product but still blended everything out fine 💁🏻‍♀️

[@dawnmichelle717]

Love the eye look on you, and the blush was beautiful! I always am sure to watch your videos to the end so I can watch your cute outtakes! 😊

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

Thanks Dawn!😁❤️😊

I have all four of those Milani palettes, and while I loved them all, my favs are Pure passion and Soft & Sultry! Thanks for a great vid 💗💗

Just used Pure Passion for my son’s beach wedding yesterday ❣️ Got a beautiful sunset 🌅 look with it!! Love that pallet!!!!!!

[@sandybowers5085]

Oopsie-I did also dip into the Tiny Marvels pallet and use the orange for a base and of course web for inner eye 😉 That SG formula!!!! Want to get some singles soooooo much!!!!!

Congrats to your family Sandy! Best wishes to the happy couple! What a wonderful occasion to celebrate!❤️😁❤️

[@sandybowers5085]

It was perfect ❤️thank you so much❣️🥰

[@karenhering3569]

Do you have another eye pallette thst is comparable to the Milani one? Concerned that you can only find it on Amazon. It looks like it's been retired.

[@mmkline1989]

Love drugstore videos. I have all of those Milani palettes except Pure Passion. I use Soft & Sultry the most, but right now I have Bold Obsessions in my current basket to try to use it more. They are so easy to use and always look good.

[@MandyLeaBeauty]

Thanks Marilee!❤️❤️❤️ That’s a great one too!😁

[@ursulahansen7478]
