Old granny here with dry skin- I love the Revlon Illuminance! I’d rather save my money for books and travel and having fun with my kids and grandkids! Great video.💕

[@lorimoore5589]

That's good to know. I think I will try it. I have dry skin as well an wouldn't have tried it because Zabrena has oily skin, I was afraid it wouldn't work on dry skin.😊

Nice to know here too. I don’t want to spend my money on my 47.00 foundation anymore.

My mom(50) and I(27) are both in love with the illuminance foundation. I have oily skin and she has dry skin. It's just such an amazing formula. I just powder my t-zone a bit.

This is GOLD!!! 💛👑 PLEASE make this an ongoing series, this is sooooo needed today's world!! I am a very disciplined beauty lover!! Many, these days, are just so out of touch! I look around and really?? Where are all these real people dropping hundreds on beauty hauls weekly/ monthly..... Really? In today's world?? I would rather make the dollar tree/ dollar general and Walmart work for me when I can and tithe at my church, help someone out, not have credit debt, give to a ministry or charity and still look cute doing it , makeup is makeup is makeup. I have 4 kids and you are dang right the kids come first. The Internet is delusional like a Biblical war isn't taking place before our very eyes... Makeup, beauty, skin, all the girly things are my hobbies, art, collection, expression etc. always have been, always will be but never ever the priority. Food, gas, bills, cost of living is crazy, beauty is last on the list. I do tons of beauty research to shop the smartest and as calculated as possible. I am a firm believer we can get the job done and have fun for wayyy less than what high end has to offer! ❤❤❤ Give us moreeee please!! ❤❤❤

[@Zabrena]

I can't love your comment enough! THIS!!!!! I agree! There are so many struggling right now! You and I are on the same page! I will try to do more of these as I come across them! Much love to you and may the peace of the Father surround you in this time and what's to come! Always remember, the JOY of the Lord is your strength! Worse things are coming, but we find our peace in HIM! :) HUGS!

[@LunarEleven]

If you haven't yet, you should check out Miss A. It's online only unless you live in TX. Way cheaper than drugstore but so many products have replaced my drugstore products because they're just better. Especially the mascaras, wish I found them before trying so many drugstore products that aren't nearly as good (but cost 5 times as much 😢) And they give to charities! 💜 They don't advertise/promote and sell their products directly which is how costs are kept low.

[@rene443hgtj]

If you have a Marshall's close by its great for low price high end make up. I seldom buy anywhere else. Was a single mom now with grown daughter I am helping through college. I agree so much with your comments. Walmart target and dollar tree my other spots.

Another KZbinr recommended the L’Oréal Les nus style lipstick in nu impertinent as a CT dupe. I ordered it on Amazon and it will be here tomorrow but on screen it look identical to the Pillow Talk she swatched it next too. It was a bit shinier but that’s all.

[@TAF54]

I've replaced Urban Decay eyeshadow palettes with Colourpop eye shadow palettes. The price difference of Urban Decay ($59) to Colourpop ($14) is significant and I can have 4 palettes of Colourpop eyeshadow for the price of one Urban Decay palette.The quality of Colourpop is phenomenal too. I also wear L'oreal and Maybelline lipsticks in place of my MAC lipsticks. I don't need to repurchase my MAC lippies yet, but I may not.

[@Zabrena]

YES! great replacements! Colourpop is exceptional! Thanks for sharing!

[@mimzyc9949]

I love these videos. I’ve mostly used drugstore makeup. Occasionally I’ve bought high end and honestly not blown away by it. I really can’t justify the cost. And most all makeup is owned by just a couple companies and probably made in the same factories.

[@tomjones2157]

@mimzyc9949 only comparable if they also have same/ similar ingredients lists though.

[@TinaHBeautifulJourney]

I primarily use drugstore too and feel like every time I've bought a high-end product for full price, I've regretted it, or it didn't live up to my expectations. Those I've gotten on an amazing sale, though, completely different story. Lol

[@susier6743]

Thanks, Zabera for bringing these videos. We all could use a great deal, and I love your hair. No offense, but every time I see your hair curled, I think of Merida from the film "Brave"! You're such an encouragement and blessing in these times.

[@Coolgirl_internet_alias]

That’s such a nice compliment, and I don’t think Zabrena would be offended by that at all. And yeah I appreciate these suggestions from her so much, cause some of us gotta keep it glam on a budget right? 💖🌹💄

Catrice has a duo that appears to be a dupe for the charolette tilbury found it on Amazon for $7.

[@jenpot25]

High end makeup mainly sell their products that high because they pay a lot for ads, commercial, box/packaging, prints on the bottle, the bottle itself to say the least. High end and drugstore have their products made at the same factory,

[@mouse2390]

They sell for however much people will pay because there will always be people who think more expensive equals better and will convince themselves that a crappy expensive product is better than the best quality drugstore item. It's sad, really.

[@cmkarma5554]

I recently purchased a Chanel lipstick because not only it was always sold out but also because everyone on the internet was raving about it and the shade looked so amazing on everyone! Well I sacrificed and got it and let me tell you it did nothing for my complexion it looked horrible on my super fair skin the shade I’m talking about is “boy” horrible shade and the quality was crappy the lipstick lasted me maybe an hour if that I had to keep reapplying I will never purchase expensive Chanel lipsticks there’s no need i love the perfumes I will purchase those but not the lipsticks , I love my cover girl pinks lipsticks much better.

[@lorindav5549]

Noticed and commented to DD that your lippy in the video looks Great on you! Revlon lipstick is my last bastion of lippy because they don't include "flavor" or fragrance. May they keep it available forever!

[@erinwright30]

My husband and son went to Sephora to buy me a Christmas gift and came home saying”y’all are getting scammed!” They couldn’t believe the cost and what people spend for makeup. I’ve been transitioning to drugstore and very selective over high end. Must be a color I can’t find elsewhere. Thanks for the reminder and great video. ❤️

[@daisiesandpandas1218]

I don't know why but imagining this is hilarious😂

[@conjuarez]

Thank you Zabrena! I hardly buy any high end makeup products anymore (except as a gift). I am amazed at how good the better priced products are now and appreciate your recommendations very much! Merry Christmas to you and your family!

[@brigitte9999]

If you can find the, LA Colors lip liner, “Rose All Day” BUY IT!

[@katiemiller2062]

There is a way to fix broken powder, blush, bronzer, eyeshadow etc. You crush it up in the pan, add rubbing alcohol a little at a time to and mix with a popsicle stick to form a paste. Then cover with Saran Wrap and press/ smooth out and let dry- I think it took a day or two. It’ll be almost as good as new. Maybe not as pretty to look at but it works perfectly. I did this when I dropped a new elf blush and it’s really works!

[@NancyH25]

Good to know. Thanks!

[@kathleenp3135]

Great tip on the Pixi color corrector. And thanks for noticing how much more product we will be getting!

[@irairod5160]

I understand your moving away from certain shades and products you used to love. As I've gone up in age 🙂my needs and preferences have changed. I've switched from matte foundations and blushes to softly-luminous ones, from dark and transfer-proof lips to medium shades in satin formulas, and from bold, black, graphic liquid eyeliner to softer, smudgy gel pencils in plum, navy, and coffee.

[@Zabrena]

YES! This! I have noticed that in myself too, matte doesn't look as great as it once did! LOL

[@tiffanysadler2072]

I love the lipstick! I think it really brings life to your beautiful face!

[@Patti-1962]

Zabrena, you are a TREASURE!! Three years ago, I decided to stop buying high end products, including skincare (I had to stop working due to health issues). I watched so many videos like this one, and I was able to build my new, affordable makeup and skincare collection. I do use Tretinoin, but with Good RX I was able to get a 45 gram tube for $32!! It's funny that the Elf Bite Sized palettes you mentioned are my top two as well. I bought a single matte white shadow from the Ulta brand on sale, and it is very good! Elf has been doing an amazing job to offer "dupes" at such great prices, too. Thank you so much for continuing to review affordable products. I have five gorgeous grandchildren that I'd rather spend my money on these days!!

Hey Zabrena! Gosh girl, your hair is just gorgeous! Love the video! And I think Undone Beauty might be on their way out - displays at Ulta are less than half the size they used to be, with only half the product line.

I truthfully don't remember the last time I bought anything 'high end'. Maybe 2+ years ago I bought a Too Faced HangoveRx setting spray - which I still have because I don't use setting sprays anymore! I've been having fun purging a ton of products from my huge collection and giving them to family, friends & coworkers to use & love. Having less products just makes it far, FAR easier and faster to get ready in the mornings. Thank you for videos like this - you are a gem!
