Why Isn't Anyone Talking About These?! Testing Underrated Drugstore Brands!

[@barose1]

Two days ago, I purchased the Pacifica mascara/mascara primer in a dual set from a local natural food store for $10. The retail price is $20, but the store sells it for $10. I love it!

[@maeganmchugh]

I really like the Ulta brand. Their matte eye primer is my favorite, and they have some great shadow singles, especially if you like an all over base shadow.

[@stephanied6711]

I love their concealer

[@bestagentofdarkness]

Yeah i like their matte primer as well !

[@ancs1231]

their eye primer is so nice, the only eyeshadow primer I've fully panned and repurchased

[@nickigregersen1826]

The eye primer is soooo good! Definitely my favorite!

Hi Kelly- happy Earth Day! 🌎 I noticed a lot of brands are doing refillable and recyclable packaging which is exciting

[@adelaidewendel1021]

The undone cream blushes are so good!! I have the shade Rosewood and it’s the perfect sunburnt rosy terracotta color

[@jenniferdossett911]

I like the Undone Clean Lash mascara (much better than the first 2 mascaras they released), the water bronzers and blushes (especially Cherry), and the Light on Lips (Royal Red, Fine Wine, and Berry Glow are amazing colors).

[@sydt7104]

love undone beauty eyeshadow. the texture and the feel is so unique and so soft. goes beautifully on the eyes. I am waiting for another sale to pick up more products from them.

[@brckaboo]

Awesome video!! I love Pacifica- their Animal Magic eyeshadow palette is one of my fave palettes. The formula is nice and the colors are so pretty. You can make SO many looks with it. And it’s super affordable. I really enjoy using it!

[@GillenMeg]

Sarah Rose has that Flower Beauty bronzer. She likes it but hates how gloopy it is because it gets messy. I know she likes a lot of Undone Beauty products too. That Pacifica mascara looks soo good I need to try it!!

[@audreys.9456]

I absolutely LOVE this look! hair, makeup, everything! It's giving very much late 80s early 90s vibes and I am here for it

One of my favorite blushes is Ulta brand, they have some good things! There lip oil is great as well.

[@Lovesmakeup4772]

The flower beauty heat wave is great mixing with foundation for your Summer color!

[@kelly82485]

Girl Grande brow and Grande lash REALLY work!!!! I'm telling you. My lashes and brows have never looked better! I had the shortest stubbiest, lashes you could barely see and now I get asked about my lashes from strangers! They think I have on fake lashes when it's just mascara! I'm SO happy with them! It's actually worth the $$! My brows are SO full now that I literally only put on clear brows gel and nothing else because tinted brow gel looks too much now because my brow hairs are extremely dark brown almost black and so full, it takes me 2 seconds to run a clear brow gel thru just to hold them in place!

[@sclem814]

I love the ulta beauty lip oils and mascaras!! Legendary Lengths and Maximum Lash are my faves from them. Would love to see you try out the Florence by Mills cream blushes!

[@kaitlinlewis2450]

Kelly you know I love Pacifica. Their Foundation is My FAVORITE! I almost always have 2 on hand with it because I love it so MUCH!. On really dry days I use the ELF Hydro Primer and the foundation by the end of the day my skin so SO SOFT!

[@LucisZ39]

I’ve seen Julia Adams try out Undone beauty. I was really interested in a lot of their cream and liquid products but they contain a lot of coconut ingredients. My skin really doesn’t agree with coconut anything. I wasn’t interested in any of their powder products so I just passed on the brand

[@Indiemakeuplover]

I don't even have sensitive skin but coconut breaks me out. Their foundation shades are far too yellow or peach for me anyway

[@vetgmacatmomfl2055]

good to know. I've recently become allergic to coconut 🥥 anything.😬

[@madebycoffee]

Same. Coconut anything ruins my skin :(

[@gigi2k326]

My skin seems to love 🥥 & hates 🍉 No reason for my comment, lol just chatting I guess lol

[@NhiTran-qz2fs]

If you want to try Undone Beauty, I highly recommend their matte lipstick formula. I purchased it around November last year during a sale and until now, I still get mind blown every time I use it. It’s such a comforting, hydrating, easy lip formula. I have very dry, wrinkly lips and never would have thought a matte lipstick can feel and look so nice on my lips. It’s really really good, not just within that price tag but in general. The shade I got is Baby Beige (sadly this is the only shade that caught my eye).

[@coolkait68]

this brown liner is so gorgeous

[@dominiquebright4790]

That bk beauty angie hot and flashy concealer brush is my all time fav!favorite!! I had to find a dupe for it and I did because at the time the only sold the brush in the set so I picked up the sephora 71 brush and it's like an identical dupe for it!!

[@maryannford7665]

Oooh thanks for sharing!!!🌸

Jen Phelps found an Amazon dupe for the BK Beauty & Angie concealer brush: Enzo Ken angled concealer brush $12. I bought it recently because I’d been wanting the BK Beauty one but at the time it was only part of the full set (now you can get it as a single) and this Enzo brush is so good! Soft, washes well, great for my concealer

[@valeriemachado5197]

I love the idea for this video. And I love affordable Friday 🥰

[@SarahSmith-mu1wc]

Hi Kelly! I'm loving the affordable Fridays. Thanks! 🙂 I like Flower Beauty and most of the products I've tried from the brand have worked well for me. But the bronzing essence always pills on me. I've tried to use it with different products in different ways and it just doesn't work on my skin. I've heard so many people rave about it but it's a no for me. I'd really like to try more from Pacifica.

[@maryannford7665]

The pilling could be from the mix of products. I haven’t read the ingredients of the Pacifica product, but if you put a silicone on top of a water based product you can get some pilling.

[@lozafam]

I was going to say that I will revisit the flower beauty bronze liquid and use it the way Kelly is. I made the mistake and added it to a foundation and thank goodness it was a drugstore foundation with only half a bottle left but it looks like caramel swirl inside the bottle. It never really mixes in so what that tells me is it is not a good mixer to darken up a light foundation.

[@dindaire]

Revolution pro just released these Hydra blushes that look like possible dupes for the Charlotte tilberry wand blushes!

[@alexism7902]

I'm interested in all these brands. I just purchased that undone pallette at the Ulta Beauty sale, because of a video I watched with Emily Noel. She had a different palette though, but her look came out really pretty. I could not resist this particular color story, though I'm happy to see you were drawn to it too. Cannot wait to see how your look turns out. I also purchased a highlighter palette from Flower, because you're always giving that brand raving reviews.

[@alexism7902]

OMGSH your eye look is stunning!!😍

[@AmayzinG13]

Fabulous drugstore Friday! Thanks for posting these Kelly, I look forward to your input each time. I'd really like to know what a wear test for that Pacifica mascara is please. Thanks much!

[@heathersargent289]

My hair was super straight all my life as I got older my hair is wavy now it's so weird. U need to try the Pacifica vegan ceramide cream it's really good and fragrance free and u can use the coupon Wich makes it 12.50 and they also have the BOGO sales all the time. It's my go tonight cream and I even use a drop of the inkey list q10 serum and mix it in it's perfection and I am usually into high-end skincare.

[@ronnettezardustaylor2900]

My hair came in wavy when I turned 40. I wish it was curly but I like the waves.

@@ronnettezardustaylor2900 isn't that weird when I turned 30 it started being really wavy from super straight my mom has wavy hair and she had it all her life I'm also the only one with naturally blonde hair in my family stuff works in strange ways just like I'm the shortest in my family too at 5 foot 4 and everyone else is almost 6 foot or over even my girl cousins are almost 6 foot like 5 foot 10 genes work in such weird ways.

[@genkestrel7254]

Hi Kelly, I think those new little wispy hairs look so gorgeous!

[@thesnoopydance645]

Where can you find Flower beauty besides Walmart?

[@marbravo7001]

Undone beauty looks soo very natural and simple which is what I like. If you get the chance and want to of course can you try their water bronzer? I’ve been eyeing it but not sure how it would look on the skin. Also, I love the Pacifica ultra cc cream radiant foundation, I’ve been using it for years, I think is really good product, their tinted lip balms are amazing too my favorite is blood orange.

[@kateliness2]

If you're interested in seeing a swatch of the Undone Water Bronzer on light skin, Matilda on Video has swatched it several times in her videos as it's one of her favorites! I'm intrigued from her swatches too.

[@morganblalock873]

Pacifica has great face washes, btw. Their Kale and Spinach Detox one is one of my holy grail cleansers. Reminds me of YTTP's cleanser but much more affordable and gets my skin even cleaner.

[@alexism7902]

I have a micellar water from them too. You're comment just reminded me. Good stuff!

[@sonjalawson2170]

Love watching you having fun with your makeup. Your playful side is refreshing!!🤩

[@nikkirowen9139]

Thank you Kelly! 😊 I need a bronzer that isn't so messy. I have a hard time with powdered bronzers. I'll have to try that one. Plus I don't have to worry about what color to choose.

[@vickiweber4718]

I love the Pacifica reusable eye patches. I also ordered the eyebrow patch. I also love their Vega Collagen with SPF 30.

[@elmrkm]

Hi Kelly. Any updates with the Pacifica mascara? Any transfer or flaking? It’s on sale at Ulta right now and I’m intrigued.

[@KellyGooch]

None! It’s amazing!!!

[@emilylucitt]

Yes, Pacifica mascaras are so underrated!

[@AmeriLoveday]

I really want to try Undone! hopefully some retailer will carry it soon in Europe 🤞🏻

[@Reiliferei]

I like the Ulta beauty lip oils, the scent is nice and they are very hydrating.

[@ameliazuidema4359]

I really enjoy the undone beauty concealer. Very creamy / dewy so not for everyone. Also it strangely goes on lighter than it looks. But easy everyday concealer that I can apply with my fingers

[@tiffanywatson152]

I love the undone beauty eyeshadow quads! They are all pretty stunning!

[@athenacaudill7902]

Undone beauty is also at target and I do really enjoy them. I just got that bronzer and I like it and it feels so high end to me

[@themightyquill560]

Just bought the Pacifica mascara because of you! I’m currently using a Maybelline one, but it didn’t give enough volume to my wimpy lashes. This one gives a beautiful amount of volume and length and separates fairly well.

[@emilycrowell4524]

I LOVE the Pacifica perfumes. Persian rose, Indian coconut, gardenia and the blood orange ones are my favs. My fav setting powder is their cherry matte powder. I’ve been trying so many different new setting powders bc I’ve been buying so many of them lately trying to find a holy grail and I keep going back to the Pacifica one.

[@pennPi]

One of my favorite makeup products is from Pacifica. It’s the only face palette I own, the Alighten Natural Radiance powders. It’s so good. The colors are gorgeous and powders are soft and blendable. Highly recommend.

[@kristinesanta6971]

What was the name of the Pacifica cologne that smells like Ariana Grande's Cloud? I can't remember...🤔

[@allysonhall88]

The best products from undone imo are lip products. The poppa gloss is great, and they have a dupe for black honey in another formula.

[@sarahwalden178]

I adore the undone beauty bronzer-when I use it I just swirl my brush in the whole pan and it gives the most gorgeous luminous bronze glow. I sometimes go back in with just the highlight (before/under my blush so the blush tones it down a bit) but usually I just use it all together! I like that the pan is big enough that you can get a matte bronzer by only using the top, or a glowy bronzer by using the whole thing! That is my favorite underhyped brand by far.

[@sandrarivera6050]

You would love the undone cream blushes! I have 3 shades and they are sooo good

[@netlane100]

Hi Kelly, what kind of brush are you using for bronzer?

[@hizzchek]

My hair changed from completely straight to naturally wavy 2b/c right around when I turned 30. Started at the back and now all my hair is fully wavy (I’m 35 now). I’ve had to learn how to properly wash and style it. So crazy, but I’m loving my new texture.

[@hippiesandsmiles]

I have to check their newer formula, but I was in love with Pacifica’s nail polish. I used a deep royal/almost navy blue polish from them, and I would have people stop and ask me what it was. I wear a color like that often, but it was a noticeable increase in inquiries when I specifically wore the Pacifica one.

[@sandybowers5085]

I LOVE affordable Fridays!!! Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts on these hidden gems that I don’t see anyone else taking about❣️❣️❣️I’m really intrigued by the Ulta brand more than ever👍🏼❤️Thanks so much for inspiring me to take a deep dive into their products‼️I’m definitely going to do some research now❣️ Have an amazing weekend, Kelly❣️❣️❣️

[@suzannepoirier7364]

Heatwavw bronzer is my favorite! Flower Beauty does it again!

[@emilylerman9028]

the ulta beauty cream matte eye shadows are really good!!! so easy to blend and they don't crease.

[@tammyeaton4791]

In the future can you please test out the Ulta Beauty eyeshadow cream sticks? I’d like to know how they perform before I buy one. I haven’t really been enthusiastic about their powder eyeshadows although the last few singles I purchased were better than the ones in the pallets. I Purchased a tapered powder brush. It’s very soft and doesn’t pick up a lot of powder because of the type of fiber it is. This is OK because I don’t want to heavy an application.

[@ignessadavinatoh]

I have tried a couple items from Florence by Mills such as the skin tint, cream blush, lip oil and lip gloss. I loved their cream blush in glowing g and their lip gloss formula wasn’t bas but nothing exciting, however the packaging is horrible. It broke after 3-4 months which should not happen especially as the lip gloss and cream blush packaging should be sturdy. I ended tossing all the items away.. The skin tint smells horrible and was streaky on me, lip oil didn’t do much nor hydrated my lips.

[@basswoodbeauty]

This look turned out so pretty!

[@DogMom2L2W]

I love the whole collagen skincare line from Pacifica. I want to try the collagen makeup line as well. I was writing off the mascara also but I want to try it now.

[@learp17]

I use a different brand of lash serum now recommended by Kimberly from her channel pretty over 50. It’s called Vie Beauty. It is made in China and I do not think it is cruelty free so if you wanna stick with cruelty free I’d recommend sticking with the grande lash which is also a good product.

[@SarahRoseBeauty]
