Drugstore Favorites

[@christinekobzeff]

Hi! Yes I do. It's quite low maintenance, I just trim the ends every couple months. After a shower, when my hair is still damp I part it down the middle, from the front all the way down the back to my neck. I comb it out, pull both sides together in the front of me and trim ends. For my bangs/fringe, I comb to the front down over my eyes and trim ends. I have a few long layers that I only trim maybe twice a year when they need. :)

Your makeup always looks so gorgeous! You really know what tones suit you and you always look so stunning!

[@bargainbeautybitch]

The Nyx trios are just as good with payoff and blendability. I love them.

[@JealousyZ2]

I love that you talk about products people usually dont talk about. Love Nyx too :)

[@candy71579]

when you're swatching the blushes, the sound makes me CRUNGE... 😖 I love your videos!!

[@kimberlyjolliff3473]

I love watching your videos I learn so much. It's nice seeing what other blonds use . Keep up the good work .You do an amazing job.. Love from Dublin..

[@beautywithemilie]

You should try the NYX eyeshadow trio, they're even more creamy!

[@Schnubabz]

Your nails with that nail polish looking adorable!! love it. Thank you for showing! XOXO

[@christinekobzeff]

Axellemagnifique is correct. I don't hit pan on blush or eyeshadow very often. I switch around between high end and drugstore products. I change up my makeup and products almost everyday so everything gets used and cycled but stays in good condition. I try to keep my products looking nice and clean. If your comment was meant to be rude, I do not tolerate trolls or rudeness on my channel, period. In Hawaii we have a saying "Pono" means do what is right, treat others right.

[@Louiseharriet]

Thank you for always taking the time to list the products! Very helpful.

[@allycatangel1]

Thank you so much for doing this video Christine. I loved hearing your favorites. I rarely purchase high end makeup products any more after I found that they are all made by the same companies and factories that make drug store brands. Seems like I can almost always find a dupe in color and quality for any high end brand in a drug store anymore. Drugstore brands have really stepped up their game. Use to the products could not compare, but now that is just not the case. Keep up the great v

[@christinekobzeff]

I haven't tried Sigma but I hear they're making some great brushes, I may try them one day. Also, I know it may sound ridiculous but I love my ELF $1 Eye Brushes (the eyeshadow, defining eye, and blending eye brushes). Essence Of Beauty brushes are another top favorite, love their face brushes and crease brushes. I think there are so many other options these days, I wouldn't bother with MAC brushes.

[@TinaWiegand]

Really enjoyed the recommendations; especially the eye shadows!

[@trevorscott1371]

Thanks Pinksofoxy. I've just about made it through every one of your videos. I think you're awesome. You've certainly helped provide me with so many valuable tips! Great job and keep the videos coming!!

[@YayaOrchid]

I'm a new subscriber. I think you should know you are officially my FAVORITE youtube guru. I love Tanya from Pixiwoo channel, because she does amazing makeup tutorials, but yours are my absolute favorite because of the way you present and explain the use of products you buy. I like that you don't ramble, and that you get to the point of your videos quickly. I don't have a lot of time, so that to me is important. Thank you for sharing snippets of life in Hawaii.

[@LJazzy18]

I love watching you because you are so passionate about everything you mention and you give such amazing detail! I am anxious to go out and buy the Sonia kashuk blush

[@alyssarobb9602]

Wet and wild black and white pencil eyeliner are so pigmented and so pretty and they are easy to work with

[@cucusa319]

I LOVE WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS & YOUR ROOM IS SOOO PRETTY!!! YOU ARE SO SERIOUS!! LOVE TIPS KEEP THEM COMING OK.

[@AmazinGraceXOXO1]

I love how u go into detail. Ur so informative that i know exactly what im getting when i go to buy a product u mentioned. Thanks!

[@nat1007lee]

i love your eye makeup in this video! very beautiful!

[@carmenbarrios1686]

best drugstore make up video so detail. Very helpful. Thanks keep up the great job.

[@stockinettestitch]

I LOVE the nail polish you're wearing!

[@Zoe.TheBody360]

Great favourites Christine...you always put so much effort into your videos...they are so enjoyable. Also I love your calm manner...it is so soothing :-)

[@christinekobzeff]

Oh and if you have a Target in your area, Sonia Kashuk has some awesome brushes!

[@kristinepley1]

loved all of your favorites! laughed when you said "if there's one product i'm emotionally attached to..... it's bronzer" loved the huge variety you showed as well! great video :)

[@loltqueen]

I love the name of one of the bronzers ''Ticket to Brazil'' and love the color too.

[@chrissiatasic6477]

Both palettes from nyx are so good from what I've seen especially the smokey eye one

[@NeutraKris]

Your makeup looks really nice here. (Not that it doesn't usually.) You're glowing!

[@Jackieee1987]

nyx is definitely drugstore. Thanks so much for this video! I always go for wet n wild because everyone raves about them, but to be honest, the colors are a big too vibrant for me! I love the earthy and natural shades you showed us!!

[@i4yi4]

omg im subbing because your lighting is so accurate! which a lot of ppl lack! :)

[@reallifemodwife]

Maybelline has some great concealers. I like the instant age rewind eraser for under the eyes and i like their mineral power and their super stay concealers for spots or blemishes! great video! we have such similar tastes in makeup, so i always love seeing your faves!

[@eswebb88]

I love the lights behind your bed. cute idea!

[@HiKimiko]

I really like that you reference what they dupe on the high end. Thanks for sharing :D

[@PUnkx93PrIncEss]

Since you're more of a NYX girl, their HD concealer is amazing! its kind of like a cream concealer but melted. It totally lasts long too. I seriously love it :)

[@je123076]

wow, I never tried covergirl, because of your review I got some and I love them!!!! Thanks so much and they are so affordable too which means them such a steal!

[@lauramarschke672]

This was great, it's so hard to decide which products to try... even though they are drugstore it can add up very quickly and become expensive if the things you try don't work for you. I really appreciated you opening up some of the lip butters and the highlighter swatches! As for concealer... I'm loving the L'Oreal true match crayon for my blemishes... I don't use undereye concealer.

[@shaunellmacgloan1087]

What a plethora of information ... Thank you for your efforts! Very appreciative!

[@passionknitgirl]

So happy to hear someone giving "Verve" some love!! Its one of my favorites to wear with a slightly darker pink liner and a light pink gloss. But it seems to be one of those colors that is so "misunderstood"! lol

[@cantrockthis]

AWESOME REVIEW! Youre my go-to guru for makeup advice!

[@hollyshepperson6504]

All great products! Side note: your bedroom is soo adorable!

[@jtferdon]

I like the NYX slide-on pencil eye-liners and Milani Liquid Eye pencil eyeliners. Also really like the Maybelline Age Rewind Eraser concealers.

[@HappyHour247]

my favorite drug store concealer is the maybelline instant age rewind treatment concealer and the nyx full coverage concealer/corrector in a jar. i'm so glad i'm not the only one who owns like 12 bronzers, although i still get made fun of because i'm already tan. :) love hearing your favorite drugstore products, always nice that there's a mix and match between high end and drugstores.

[@ladydfrombk]

Ur room is absolutely gorgeous!

[@08oceanview]

I have a list started with NYX shadows you had mentioned in an older video!! This video makes me want to start purchasing!! Love your videos Christine;)

[@xxmjhdrumbabyxx]

I like your message at the beginning. I'm 21 (nearly 22) and I felt like I should shop high end when I first started watching KZbin. But you're right. There's excellent products at the drugstore. I only have a few high end products (maybe 7 total) and the rest is drugstore (I can't even begin to count lol). High end is great, of course, but you can find the same things at the drugstore!

[@TheAccessoryGirl]

I really enjoyed this video Christine, you gave me some great ideas of products I want to try, especially some of those NYX eyeshadows you showed. I hope you will do a video of your favorite drugstore nail polishes too. Thanks! Your room, with the pretty pillows on your bed and your icicle headboard, make such a pretty background btw. :)

[@LovelyLipstickHoarders]

For eyeliner, I have been using Almay liquid eyeliner and also ELF's liquid and gel eyeliners. I love both, but the brushes are different. Almay's brushes allow for thicker lines but the brush tip wears out pretty quickly. If you want thinner lines, the ELF eyeliners are great.

[@Krista.Williamson]

Hi Christine!..I have a lot of the same favs u do..but for drugstore eyeliner, I love Milani liquefye in black for my tightline & waterline when I wear it there & I like Physicians Formula gel liners, when I want to smoke it out..they're great..For concealers..I can't quit using the Garnier tinted rollerball..It gives me just enough coverage & really brightens under my eyes..I also use it down the bridge of my nose & it feels so good, very cooling & nice!..

[@silverose1209]

I so love finding makeup guru's that are my age. :) Sometimes I worry about trying things because of my age.. I don't want to look like I am trying to look like a teen. But seeing it done right on ladies like you shows how to do it. early 30's is sooo not old anyway. ;)

[@TheDeextra]

What a FABULOUS thorough video, great job

[@christinekobzeff]

Sure! Will do love

[@suzannelarragoity186]

Thanks you so much! Great video. Per your advice I just bought the Revlon Gentleman Prefer Pink. Love it. I've bought really expensive lip products and even still they are not always great. What a great find. Thanks again. I would love to hear back from you!

[@1234paolaa]

Jordana pressed powder is soo good, Wet and Wild Coverall Cream foundation works really good. As well as their Mascara. NYC Liquid Eyeliner.

[@Jacksonsmom11]

Milani liquify eyeliners are the best ones that I have tried!

[@xoheartedjewel]

I really enjoyed this video! I love your taste in makeup! :)

[@ohhiheidi182]

I love Covergirl's new 3 in 1 foundation, primer, and concealer. I still need a little extra concealer after using it, but it feels so light, doesn't make me break out, and has spf 30. One of my favorite concealers of all time is Hard Candy's Glamoflauge, but note it is VERY thick, but it gives the fullest coverage possible!

[@SeventiesGirl1961]

My current drugstore favourites are Revlon PhotoReady Concealer, Revlon Grow Luscious mascara, Revlon ColorStay liquid foundation, NYC Smooth Skin Bronzing Face Powder, Ardell Brow Sculpting Gel, Maybelline Warm Me Up Colorsensational lipstick and Bourjois Healthy Mix Correcting Concealer. These are all staples in my collection. I love Nyx eyeshadows and actually Nyx Dolleye Volume mascara is worth a mention too! xo

[@JubilantJenny123]

i love your nails! theyre so perfect!!

[@Nenakhmer]

I love nyx as well, and I have just about all you have got of your singal shadows and palette.. I also love nyx's blushes and thire new wet eye shadows's :')

[@LydiaTarine12]

Physician's Formula Mineral Blushes are wonderful for anyone who loves matte blush looks.

[@jagger8]

Great video--thanks for the ideas! Some of my drugstore favs... Foundation: Maybelline Dream Smooth Mousse, Physician's Formula MineralWear. Concealer: Garnier Skin Renew Roller. Blush: Loreal True Match in Innocent Flush or Tender Rose. Eyeliner: Physician's Formula Gel liner trio. Lipliner: Jordana in Rock n Rose or Tawny, Loreal Colour Rich in All About Pink. Lips: Maybelline Baby Lips, Revlon Super Lustrous in Iced Amethyst, Loreal Infallible in Blushing Rose or Beyond Blushing.

[@Justmeaja]

Revlon Colorstay Eyeliner is my favorite eyeliner. I use the blackest black and I swear it does not move. I dont even invest in any other black eyeliners (drugstore or high end) because this one has won me over. It stays put! I have really watery eyes and I have never found an eyeliner that would stay in my water line other than this one. Worth checking it out! xoxo

[@zoeymaicaboo]

I can't believe i only subscribed yesterday! you're videos are really very informative :) it shows that you've really put a lot of effort and thought into each video. And you're makeup collection is to die for! I like that you kept everything well organized and neatly stored. I just cringe when i look at other videos and see dusty, grimey makeup.

[@singstar50]

I just found your channel and I AM OBSESSED WITH YOU NOW (: Thanks for being so amazing (;

[@heatherw9702]

I have the champagne and cavier pallet and i love love love it! For some reason the trios suck at least the two I own. But that one I was really happy with.

[@Daizy125]

Omg your room is absolutely gorgeous! And so are u :-). We have the same coloring (hair, eyes, skin) ..so, you've saved me a lot of time and hassle searching for the right colors lol. Thank u so much :-) ♥♥

[@MTGGoddess]

Wet n' wild coloricon pencil eyeliners/brow liners are awesome!

[@Shelley9090]

Really helpful and well done video. I'm so glad I subscribed to your channel. You get right to it, but give all the pertinent information necessary to help decide what to buy. Thanks so much.

[@sabeena911]

Thanks for sharing I really love the milani liquefy eye pencil in black and the gel liners and eyeliners from Physcians Formula!

[@ymnitsa]

great video !!!! when i first started using make up it was CHANEL. i was told its the best! I still do use it. but i discovered drugstore make up not to long ago and i love a lot of things!!! ))) i also love those w&w single eye shadows, and the new bronzer (i got cause i saw u said that its great, and it is) oh i really like nyx blushes (mauve, but it looks more like a peach to me), and my actualy favorite blush is revlon in blushing berry.

[@NinaNikzad]

omg i love ur makeup collection and every thing that u have wish I had them too :D

[@Glenonica1]

I have found NYX in Walmart, ULTA and a few other drugstores in my area. I've also used "Sally Girl" from Sally's Beauty Supply store. They have various shadows, that are small and clip together if you want to build a palette, they are nicely pigmented and wear well and their only .99¢ ea.. I use lip liner in a shade that is similar to "Stone" by MAC, called "Natural", by Beautique also found in Sally's. I really enjoy a good find and finding cheaper dupe's makes me very happy.

[@christinekobzeff]

Apparently it depends on the area, all of the drugstores in our area carry a large selection of NYX.

[@VanityViixen]

Honey moon is my favourite hard candy blush!

[@mizzbehavin13]

Awesome video! A lot of these I've been wanting to get but wasn't so sure, so now I def will! And a lot of things you mentioned I already own and love them, especially the lip butters! Today I'm wearing the Peach Parfait with NYX liner in Pinky. Love it!

[@farri7866]

Sleek do really nice blushes, they r dupes for nars! Maxfactor & l'oreal have the best mascaras! Love ur make up.

[@janicestoodley5644]

Just went to WalMart & bought Physician's Formula Happy Booster Blush in Rose, thanks to you! I love the way you describe each color; I was able to make a better choice that way & the color is perfect!!

[@chasingjme]

maybelline dream nude air foam! it's my favourite drugstore foundation i've used!

[@christinekobzeff]

The majority of my makeup in this video is drugstore. As I mentioned in the video, I don't own drugstore foundation, concealer, or eyeliners, which is why I asked for everyone to share their favorites in the comments.

[@christinekobzeff]

Thank you! This is our own design, we make jewelry for a living. I have an Etsy store as well, the link is on my channel homepage.

[@JaneEMcLernon]

Nyx makes a perfect dupe for MAC "Cranberry" as well. I love the Milk pencil!

[@ItalianPeanut]

I love seeing alternatives to high end! I've spent hundreds of dollars on makeup. This will benefit my wallet a lot!

[@christinekobzeff]

Sure! I got it at Ross :)

[@kaitysweet1718]

i love the maybelline define-a-line eyeliner

[@glamorousgal09]

great video! For drugstore eyeliner, I love NYC liquid liner, jordana fabuliner, & the physican's formula shimmer strip gel liner : ) They're all great! Especially the NYC liner, it's $1.72!!!

[@christinekobzeff]

I believe NYX changed the name to Champagne & Bubbles now. I purchased mine at Longs/CVS, Walgreens carries them as well. Those are the only 2 drugstores we have in my area. I would check with all your local drugstores.

[@lemonspica]

great video....i like sonia kashuk products, they are very high quality and No.7 makes amazing compact powders and blushes. Rimmel lipliners are some of the best out there, been using them for years....

[@TaylarRawr]

Love this! You should try the NYX Slide On eye pencils! They are seriously my favorite eyeliners! & their color selection is amazing. Very comparable (some are even better!) to the UD 24/7 pencils, in my opinion!

[@Smaya216]

Your room is gorgeous!

[@christinekobzeff]

Aww, Thank you! I will try to do more tutorials. :)

[@CupCake77396]

You should really try the hard candy concealer's and the NYX eye liners and liquid eye liners are amazing for bold pigmentation!!

[@pagemcnally]

I so love your etsy shop!!!

[@beautybloggeress]

I LOVE max factors liquid effect eyeliner pencil.it's super soft smudge-able (comes with a smudged) and is super black too! Fir 8£it is kind of on the expensive side fir drugstore but defo worth it!

[@marklamete]

Physicians formula has nice eyeliners (shimmer strips, they do both automatic and gel liners). Maybelline has quite a few nice liners as well. I know milani does a good black automatic liner too!

[@rebelwithcause]

Love these kinds of videos, thanks for sharing. Am definitely going to check out that Sonia Kashuk blush! The Sonia Kashuk matte lip pencils and lipsticks are really amazing. Prestige (total intensity and waterproof non-automatic) and l'oreal (lineur intense, extra-intense and hip chrome liners) both make really great eyeliners. Maybelline superstay concealer is fab, so is Revlon Age Defying.

[@pamlai7]

also the maybelline instant age rewind concealer is great doesnt crease and lasts all day! i use the brightener one though it is a little light for me.

[@himaureen]

I think your hair looks great!

[@cucusa319]

I love your nails & your nail color it's really pretty on you,your makeup is pretty to.D.M.

[@TheMartyrsMilitia]

My favorite drugstore foundation right now is the Maybelline Fit Me foundation. It's light and breathable, it blends very easily and it gives lovely coverage without washing my face out and making it look like I'm wearing a lot of product. :)

[@aviscardi24]

thats great, the hardy candy liquid highlight reminds me of benefit high beam. I'm a high end girl but I love maybelline line stiletto and loreal linear intense liquid liner (coming from someone who loves gels lol). AND the maybelline color tats are pretty good .. I have bad to the bronze, tough as taupe and audacious asphalt. I did think of picking up the orange for summer but I like that nyx e/s you showed that is peachy
