💄So, drugstore recommendations...as a "mature" lady (I recently turned 50 😉), I tend to stick with Milani, Physicians Formula, and elf. Milani manufactures many (maybe all, not sure) of their products in Italy, so you're getting great product for only a bit of a higher price than other drugstore brands. Physicians Formula I tend to gravitate towards their various powder products containing all the "butters" they use as they tend to be more forgiving on more "mature skin." Elf is great for various odds and ends; I even have much of their skincare/cleansers as well as other tools/brushes. Over the past few years, my skin has changed-as you can imagine-and the combination of these three brands has worked well for me! Also, I've placed online orders with each of these and had very good service with all of them-no problems with shipping or breakage. Sometimes, it's nice to shop at home in peace and quiet and receive fresh/clean products that haven't been previously opened/swatched-just a thought. I hope that's in some way helpful! Have a great one, all! 🙏💜

A tip with the Make Beauty blush; they sell individual refills of the blushes, if you have an empty palette the refills will save you a little money.

I feel like not using drugstore products on clients (depending on product wear of course) makes sense. If you hire a makeup artist you are usually paying for a touch of luxury you might not do for yourself day to day. That being said, the one time I hired an MUA I paid zero attention to what she was using. Also, if the MUA I hired used a bunch of high end cosmetics and whispered conspiratorially (and truthfully) that this *drugstore brand of a daily use product* was their favorite I'd probably tip them extra for the service and for making me feel like I had just learned some kind of industry secret. I know this is true because Robert said something nice about the cheap concealer I started using instead of my expensive go-to and I reflexively wanted to tip him ten dollars for validating my opinion.

I definitely think there are amazing drugstore options out there, but I much preferred the undertones on the luxury side.

Beauty Bay is quietly one of the better brands out there I think. I love their liquid blushes, I have their highlighters, the eyeshadow is very impressively pigmented for the price and they are very affordable! No one ever talks about them it feels like, but it deserves more love
