I have tested out hundreds of drugstore makeup products in 2026 and this is the roundup of the
best of the best that I have tried so far. Let's get into it. Hey everyone, welcome back to my
channel. In my opinion, 2026 I've been spoiled because I've only been on YouTube for about a
year and I feel like it has been the best year of drugstore launches in so long and I have tested
out nearly everything that has come to the market. Now that we've just passed our halfway mark
through the year, I'm going to give you my top picks of everything I have tried in the year,
what has actually really stood out to me and I think that is worth your money at the drugstore.
So without further ado, let's get on into it because you know this is going to be a long one.
Grab your snacks. Let's go. Starting out today, I just started with my brows and I have two
brow products that not only stood out to me from the drugstore but they really beat out anything
I have tried high end this year. So the first one that really impressed me, Colourpop, just came out
with their new Brow Boss. This is a 24-hour lifting brow gel. I have it on this side of my
brows today and they just look so nice and just genuinely like smooth and they make me so happy.
They don't move. I have such thick curly hair. It really takes so much for something to actually
stick my brows down and keep them there and still look like hair. But just in general, nothing really
does actually keep my brows in place. So this is incredible and I absolutely love it. This one. I
absolutely love it for shaving my brows. My absolute top favorite of the year, if you had to
go and pick one though, is from L'Oreal. This is the Brow Elimination Up to 24-Hour Wear. This is
not new. It's just new to me this year but this is incredible. This is really my absolute favorite
and it is my favorite because the wand is long and skinny and my brows are not thick. So something
that is covering more space than my brows actually have is just getting goop everywhere that's
unnecessary. So this keeps everything so controlled and it is the best hold I have ever found. I love
this product so much. 10 out of 10. Next, one of the most unique products to the market and therefore
one of my favorites and it's so affordable is from Essence and what I used to refresh my skin
after I did my skincare this morning and then I went to put on my makeup for this video. This is
the Essence Jelly Grip Refreshing Aloe Prep and Set Mist. Now, I don't use this to set my face but
to prep your face or to refresh your face, oh my gosh, it smells so good. The mister on it is really
nice so it doesn't get everywhere but it just smells like an aloe vera spa. It's so affordable
and genuinely I don't like the feeling of aloe vera so the fact that they have made this into a
really comfortable spray even when it's got a little bit of like grip to it is incredible. It
doesn't grip but I'm just telling you if you want aloe vera somehow into your skincare routine,
I love that for this reason and there's not a lot of products on the market that will do that.
For foundations, I'm really surprised at my picks from the drugstore but we're gonna go ahead and
get into it today. I'm shocked to see that two of them are sticks. Starting out with what I'm wearing
today, this might be an unpopular opinion but as a dry-skinned person, I love this. This is the
Revolution Skin Silk Glow Tint. This is a sheer foundation and this is basically butter in a stick.
It goes on so beautifully. It does have a glow to it. This is basically like a Charlotte Tilbury
foundation stick or flawless filter in a stick from the drugstore but it gives me the nicest
most beautiful illumination and I love layering this. If looking that glowy is not your vibe
even though it's summer or you've got oily skin, this is probably not the pick for oily skin period
but if you've got combination skin and you like to look that glowy but you don't want it to slide
off your face, I love using that for just a quick initial going underneath as an illuminator in the
summer especially if you got it in a little bit of a darker shade. I think it would be so beautiful
if you prefer stick products but the one I'm wearing on top of my face every time I wear this
not only is it one of the cheaper foundations at the drugstore, the shade range is insane but also
I can't get over the fact that I really think that my skin just looks the best it has ever looked
and I'm saying skin not foundation. This really looks like skin on my face if I prep well. I know
that this can look a little cakey if not but oh my gosh this is the essence foundation stick and this
is in the color 130 but they have so many. It's such a great shade range from the drugstore at
this price. It comes up like a stick like this. Essence is so affordable. I have it on my skin
today and I think my skin looks great today. Every time I wear this I think I have one of the best
foundation looking skin days. It just I don't know I'm thinking about taking it on my trip to Europe
because number one it's not going to spill everywhere and number two I feel like it looks
great. The last one that came out from the drugstore earlier this year that just blew my
socks off is the NYX make a wonder soft matte buildable foundation. My only con about this is
the shade range so I mixed two. I used the two shades light and light nude but do you see the
difference between these? Not only is there a big shade jump but also they just run very very light
so if you can find your shade match in this foundation I think it is one of the most beautiful
high coverage yet looks like skin and is lightweight foundations. It really has such a
beautiful blur to it and my skin has been so acne prone this year. This feels so lightweight while
giving you so much beautiful coverage and when it says soft matte this really does adapt to whatever
you've got underneath so you see how this will still give your skin a little bit of luminosity
if that foundation is on underneath. This is absolutely a stunning foundation it's so beautiful
so especially for oily skin if you like more matte foundations but you don't want your skin to look
like disgusting this is so gorgeous and for dry girls if you prefer a matte look without your skin
feeling too dry this is also great that's why it's in this video. Now in the bronzer category I feel
like I have too much because we are in the summer and everyone and their mother is releasing a
bronzer and I try not to pile too many products on my face but I really wanted to show you a whole
bunch of them so let's start out with things that look like contour a little bit and try to narrow
this down starting off with the CoverGirl TrueBlend Skin Enhancer in the color Sculpted.
This is probably my favorite contour color ever not only is the formula so buttery it is one of
the stick formulas that I have to press the least hard to get the pigment to come out and that
is incredible because it means it goes on and blends out so well this does not look like anything
on your skin once it blends out you can't even see that it's there but it does make a difference
which is exactly what I want in a contour I don't want to be able to see it I don't want there to be
a gray stripe on my face and this just gives me the most beautiful result every single time but
another honorable mention is the e.l.f. Soft Glam Stick because even though this one doesn't have
a smooth of a glide man oh man is the undertones on this range so beautiful and it gives you a
little more pigment this is the color Light Medium this just stays exactly where you put it
it feels very powdery silky almost sorry there's like lip stain all over my fingers it leaves the
most beautiful subtle color behind so you could use this either as a bronzer or as a sculpt I use
more for sculpting because just the look of it gives me perfect warm but not gray chisel the
formula on this is insane this you almost don't need to set with powder it's beautiful but now
it's very unique for bronzers to be so neutral tone because they're usually so warm red brick
and all of that based but Colourpop just came out with their liquid bronzers if you prefer a liquid
and this is in the color West Beach it's one of their lighter colors and I'll put it right in the
middle here but this can go either way it can be warm or it can be a little bit more gray toned
and man when I tell you these blend out like one of the most pleasant beautiful
creams ever and just doesn't give you any patching the blend on these is so easy so it's perfect for
beginners that reminds me a lot of the Rare Beauty bronzer which is one of the easiest
most subtle gorgeous liquid bronzers out there and that formula comes I think the closest I've ever
found I'm so sorry one more cream but I just think it's a little bit unique this is the L'Oreal Lumi
Bronze Le Stick Soleil and the colors of this are gorgeous if you like a little bit more glow in your
bronzer and you prefer a stick this is the one for you this is the color Toasted Sunlight and this
again goes on so nicely but do you see how rich it is this is going to really make you look like
just bronzed and glowy which is very different than the other products I'm looking at right now
this is so absolutely beautiful it blends out like an absolute dream this is so creamy that I can put
this on over my foundation which I usually hate to do with a stick but that one is absolutely insane
and I just love the way my makeup comes out every time I use it I know this sounds like I picked
every single bronzer in this video to be my favorite but I I use them all for different
things and I genuinely love them but if I had to pick one if I had to pick one in the bronzer
category not contour but if I had to pick one it would be this guy not only like stunning the
packaging is first of all but second of all this is the Physicians Formula Bronze Booster in the
Warm Sand I think it's their only color only downside but seriously this is the nicest cream
like true true cream that I have ever worked with it kind of goes on a little bit matte but then it
has the hintest bit of shimmer in it just so that your skin looks alive but it really does absolutely
set where you place it it's like a true cream a lot of these are more balms or they're more liquids
this is the one in the video that is really a true cream that I tried this year that I was
floored by so if you want something with a little bit more grip a little bit more like the say
cream bronzer or something like that this is insane and I don't think it gets enough hype
okay moving on to cream blushes we kind of have the same problem going on here basically I'm just
going to tell you that the CoverGirl True Blend Skin Enhancer Balms are insane for the exact same
reasons they're so beautifully pigmented they come in the most lovely beautiful colors they also
hold their pigment so well they blend out really nicely and I don't know I've just absolutely
loved wearing them they give you a hint of glow on your cheeks but not too much they're not like a
glowy balmy blush they honestly are more on just like the plain non-gimmicky side and that's kind
of what makes them so gorgeous when you blend them out they give you such a nice blur to your skin
do you see oh they are just absolutely a joy to work with I have the colors from top to bottom
nude flush sleepy mauve and candied strawberry okay one other stick formula I really want to
talk about and this really just blew my socks off out of the water this is the new Colourpop blush
sticks they reformulated these and came out with like the coolest best shade range ever this is
the color mini me and this definitely is the glowiest wettest balmiest beautiful blush I own
and I think that's what makes these so special is not only the color range is beautiful but it is
the most like wet stick blush formula I have ever tried it really goes on just like butter these
remind me a lot of roads formula as well they are just such a joy to work with you can swipe them
over your foundation and they won't ruin it that is a telltale sign of how incredibly emollient
something is I just love using them every single time I reach for them and usually a stick will be
a little drier and these are gorgeous so with my dry skin I can't help but love these one last one
I want to talk about you can pick this up at Target and Ulta this is the Pixi liquid glow and
I have the shade fresh so for a liquid blush not only does this come with so much product which is
great because it's a little bit more on the pricey side but talk about the most beautiful even
incredible liquid blush formula when you blend this out on your cheek your cheek just looks
so again just dewy and balmy and it just melts right into your skin like skincare almost it just
keeps that beautiful shine without looking like there's shimmer on your cheeks I wouldn't place
it in the same category as like a glowgasm beauty light wand but it just gives you like oh
I've eaten all my vegetables and I drank a bunch of water and I'm glowing from the inside out
like a ton next we have so many setting powders on the market and two of them have really knocked
my socks off compared to all of the other ones for different reasons so first of all we have the
super viral elf set it right correcting and writing setting power what's great about this is
it came out in so many different shades comparatively I think the morphe one came out
in two shades and one of the other ones I know came out in three I think this came out in like
six so I have the color fair so this one comes with a peach a green a lavender and a pink color
I just mix them all together this is the most brightening setting powder because of that lavender
and that green canceling out all of my redness it is just beautiful like I think we've all been
using peach and pink setting powders but really lavender and green just have such unique
brightening concepts that I think this is just so lovely and it blurs like nobody's business
it looks absolutely stunning I would say if you have dry skin though it can tend to make
dry matte products very dry so just prep your skin accordingly if you're going in with matte
product after matte product after matte product this is probably not the powder for you that day
but otherwise it has been so beautiful to work with I'm wearing it on my under eyes today
and I just love how bright they are right in this area which is like my problem area to get bright
I loved this powder what I'm wearing on the rest of my face however is the hard candy blur on lock
setting powder and they sent this to me it's like my first ever PR and I'm so happy because really
this is literally my favorite out of all the powders I was honestly going to get it before
they even sent it to me they have a pink one a more orange one for deeper skin tones and then
like a purple and green lavender one for super fair I use the middle shade of pink and this is
stunning because out of all of the different color correcting powders that I have tried
this feels the least dry this has so much blur to it you get a good amount of product the price
is incredible and it also just feels the least dry on my skin and so therefore it looks the most
like skin I'm wearing it all over the perimeter of my face today and it just keeps my skin looking
like skin while locking it in it's stunning okay for powder bronzers I've got a few to talk about
so first of all I've just been obsessed with everything covergirl basically this year this
is the covergirl true blend skin enhancer baked luminous bronzer and yes I'm going to talk about
blushes too so just a wording but this is the color honey bun this is the most beautiful
baked formula it really really is a stunning stunning color and I'm wearing it on one side
of my face today it just looks so blurring and luminous at the same time which is what a really
good baked powder should do I just can't get enough of this it's the perfect undertone the
packaging is lovely the quality is awesome and you get a ton in here so I've absolutely loved
using this 10 out of 10 because I used to use dark highlighters as bronzers so I love a baked
bronzer speaking of which I have to give a shout out because what I tried later in the year was
the newly reformulated Milani baked bronzer this is the color Amalfi glow I will say that if I had
to hold these two baked bronzers up to one of my high-end ones I would pick these over my high end
the new say one that came out it's nice it's a little more pigmented than both of these and
therefore a little harder to work with I actually love having a little bit less pigmented of a
bronzer that actually just I can build up and work with so well so this goes on so well for being
a little bit more of a baked formula and also it's got such a beautiful natural base color
it's not a brown it's just a little bit of a bronze but it still almost looks like a skin
tone that's why this is so great and I absolutely love it last one though if you would ask me 90%
of this year what was my favorite bronzer across the board it is going to be this one from essence
it is the soft touch powder bronzer in the shade golden buttercream now this one is not a cream
to powder formula it's really just a powder but it's like a creamy powder it's not like a putty
though I just want to let you know let me swatch that on a different finger that's unfair so this
one is a beautiful gorgeous matte bronzer but it just keeps that life to you because it's so
blurring are you kidding me look at this since hit me up I don't know what y'all doing over there
but y'all being efficient as hell those bronzers are just a joy to put on my face every single
time and never let me down okay powder blushes I only have two formulas to talk about and they're
just two different formulas so first of all yes the covergirl true blend skin enhancer blush is
flipping stunning I'm wearing it on this side of my cheeks today and I cannot stop looking at it
it is so flipping good I love it so much it is beautiful they came out with four different colors
I have three of them the other one is like a really dark purple which would be too dark for
my skin tone but I love these they can be very pigmented so with this I went in with a big fluffy
brush and just barely kind of tapped it on and it looks so beautiful but if you really want to pack
a punch these also are capable of doing that it just keeps that glow to your skin but there's no
patchiness which I'm very prone to with my skin so it just looks so lovely and keeps all of that
glow and healthiness there I think these work for such a good variety of skin tones it's just a good
formula is it a dupe for the hourglass no but I think it's my favorite baked formula that's come
out in a long time that's what I will say the other formula that has just knocked my socks off
I reach for this like 50% of the time I do my makeup every other day this is the essence soft
touch bouncy blush this one is more of a cream to powder formula so it's a little bit it's not
quite like intensely putty like their highlighter but it does have a little bit of give to it if
you were to push on it I'm wearing this color today this is the color exotic daisy this also
comes in four different shades I've got three of them these are just their chef's kiss if you love
all of the cream to powder formulas that are coming out like the rare beauty and violet fr
has one and honestly so many companies have them now especially for high-end this is not only the
best at the drugstore but it is such a great price and I cannot tell a difference hardly between this
and my high-end ones I'm wearing it on this cheek today and it's just you can see that this is my
highlighter but underneath is like such a soft blur to my cheek listen these are amazing and
they're like four bucks love them okay there wasn't a ton out at the drugstore this year
for eyeshadow I know that morphe just came out with new eyeshadows and I loved them from last
year but I have a few that I wanted to mention I tried out very early in the year one new to me
not new to the market and then a couple of goodies I just tried out so starting off with the essence
jelly grip eyeshadow primer this is says it's long lasting and intensifying I have never been
a fan of eyeshadow primers I've always used concealers but this one is like the only one I
like my eyes are so sensitive that skin is so thin but this one is very clear it's very long lasting
it just gives you a nice beautiful clear base and genuinely makes not only the color of my eyeshadow
pop but it doesn't catch on anything it's just a good product it's so cheap it's very unique and
honestly I love using it I can't believe I'm reaching for it I wanted to put it in this video
because I don't use eyeshadow primers but I think it does what it claims so there you go next I have
raved again and again and again about how much I love the wet and wild always naked eyeshadow palette
it is probably one of my top eyeshadow palettes in my collection period in terms of performance
and how much therefore use I get out of it so I really wanted to try this year when I
found out they had a pink one I was like stop I need it right now this is such a beautiful
stunning formula and it also has a pressed glitter in it where you don't need any eyeshadow primer
for it and it looks beautiful the mattes in here blend out so well but the shimmers in here are what
really gets me I know the swatches don't look insane because it's more about when I put them
on my eye they are some of the only shimmers that show up as well as they do and the price
point of these are insane so this is what some of the shimmers look like and when I put them on
my eyes is where they end up just looking like that the whole time they just look insane I'm
wearing it as you can see this gold right here that's this one on my hand it looks sad but here
it looks so beautiful I don't know what it is I am wearing half of this on my eyes today and then
the other one I tried out this year which is discontinued but it just gives me an excuse to
use this palette again and tell you about the formula from the company so originally earlier
this year I got the Colourpop How the Grinch Stole Christmas back in January this is one of the only
eyeshadows I've been able to get but look at this freaking pet are you kidding me look at these
shimmers and the mattes in here blend out so nicely so basically I just think Colourpop's formula
in general of eyeshadows have always been amazing and these particular types of palettes like I
think they still have the one that was like Shrek still in formula these like cream to powder
eyeshadows are everything and then they have these like chunky glitters I'm wearing all over my eye
look at this oh my goodness these are so pretty so look at the difference in formula are you
kidding me with this are you kidding me and then look at how silky smooth these are I cannot so
if you're thinking about picking up a new Colourpop palette right when I'm filming this
they just announced they're coming out with a Hannah Montana collab oh my gosh I think they're
insanely worth it and I've reached for this palette a lot I just can't show it on camera a
lot because it's discontinued okay but this one I was not prepared for truly these next two eye
products I was not prepared for how gorgeous they are I think if everyone knew like they would be
sold out all the time so first of all Essence came out with a few different eyeshadow formulas
and they come in these beautiful clear like chrome packaging it's like a satin these are called the
moon eyeshadow in the pearly finish and I've got the two colors they only come in these two colors
they have one matte which I don't have but this is the color golden glow and then I have silky taupe
up here I'm like you were not ready for how incredible I was like oh okay they just don't
look like much and then I was like what what Danessa Myricks who they are like so creamy and
silk what what does that not look like some of the highest quality eyeshadow I have just showed
you are you are you kidding me so I didn't put any of this on my eyes today I'm gonna have to
film it in a different clip because I just I want you to see them in their glory by themselves
but this these next two products we're not ready for these are their two colors in their glitter
I have the colors frosted shimmer and blushed stardust a mix between Patrick Ta and the moon
dust eyeshadows this looks like my eyeballs hello they are like a see-through beautiful topper
glitter these are so pretty oh my godness this is my favorite type of makeup formula in general
it's just glitter but like sophisticated glitter like this you've got to be kidding me like get
out of here for like four bucks so good I just can't I just can't get over it they are so beautiful
the lights and the camera are not doing it justice I feel like they're gems like oh I'm gonna go tell
my best friends and we're gonna keep it a secret they're like my favorite gem finds I was like
these are new I'm gonna pick them up they're cheap so pleasantly impressed by essence this year
incredible and then my very last one I want to talk to you about is the L'Oreal Paris lay eyeshadow
stick and the shimmers and I really want to go pick up more this is incredible and I'm so picky
about an eyeshadow stick I don't like the glider ones from Anastasia they're okay the ones from
magic they're good but like they're okay this one I want to reach for all the time because the
glitter in it does not dry out sometimes these glimmer sticks just dry out but this one genuinely
like shows up it's such a beautiful inner corner highlight do you see how it's like keeping up with
these sparkles over here almost that's beautiful it's so stunning so I have absolutely loved this
and I really want to go pick up they have like a really pretty silver and a taupe I've been using
those all the time and I'm just not a shimmer stick kind of person but I love that for concealer
there is only one with all the concealer launches that have happened this year this is probably my
top product in makeup this year in general that I found it is from essence and it is the silky
blur hydrating long wear concealer this feels like putting on an intense eye mask on my skin
this feels so good it has the coolest doe foot applicator that is so pointed and comes out at
an angle so it's so perfect for getting right here in the corner of your eye and the formula
is unmatched not only is it such high coverage in the best way and it genuinely feels like
buttery thick eye mask cream it also blends out so beautifully there is zero patching I feel like
this beats out anything I have tried high end this year as well including the Charlotte Tilbury
which I think is fantastic I think the only one that maybe tops this is the Natasha Denona for
the hintest bit of longer wear but for like six times the price this is so incredible
I hope they never discontinue this I will repurchase until I die okay one mascara that
came out last year went super viral and it had mixed reviews and so I was like I'm not gonna
buy it I tried it this year and I was like okay I'm one of the 50 that loves this this is the
Maybelline bubble mascara I am wearing it today this just gives my lashes the right amount of
separation length and volume that I'm looking for and it's very hard for me to find all three in
one product and this definitely does not flake so simply put this is a very good mascara from
the drugstore and it's not too wet and it's not too dry I really like this formula a lot for just
big fluttery lashes which is what I like all the time okay moving on one powder highlighter from
the drugstore has really impressed me the essence soft touch one is okay but it can be a little
patchy but this one looks definitely like candlelit glow lit from the thin this is the new reformulated
Milani baked highlighter in the shade Dolce Perla this is what I'm wearing all over my cheeks today
do you see how this just looks like skin this doesn't have a ton of sparkle to it it's just
shiny it also doesn't have a lot of like intensity to it it is intense because the light is there
but it doesn't have a lot of back pigment do you see this is what makes it such an ethereal
beautiful yet very there highlighter which is exactly what I'm looking for so I absolutely
love this highlighter formula it's very easy to put on and just look super natural you can't tell
where it starts and stops and it's really really pretty so I've so enjoyed this it's what I reach
for most days right now and I like it better than my $60 ones okay lastly for lips I have a couple
of things so Maybelline came out with their version of a peel off lip liner and I really
like it I like the color range in this especially almost more than any others they have such muted
colors I love this one I have this is the color haze and it's just a beautiful mauve that I'm
wearing right now and so it just makes the stain so much more wearable and another huge bonus of
gosh it smells like a beautiful like cupcake berry lip specker it smells so good and a lot
of these do not so not only is the experience made so much more pleasant because you're smelling
something delicious that you have to wear for 15 minutes but it comes off really nicely and I just
love that color so I think it works really well so a plus on execution there and then also I've
never tried the road lip liners but I tried the Revlon photo focus and it just it's nice but it
comes off these blur filler blurring lip contours from L'Oreal are gorgeous and they actually have
some wear time so I'm wearing this over the stain to kind of give it a little bit more of a blurred
edge this is the color brown caramel and it's just a really nice soft nude color it's got a gorgeous
undertone to it and it looks a little more mauve on my lips which is why I paired it with this lip
combo today but these are great I'd love to pick up some more colors in this and they do have a
little bit of longevity to them not a ton because that's what this kind of product is it's a cream
but more than others and then this shocked me I also tried this out in my Maybelline versus L'Oreal
video this is the L'Oreal color riche in the color worth it medium lip liner I know this looks like
an old like 2001 lip liner but this girl if you want blur you should try this lip liner not only
is the color so gorgeous because this is like L'Oreal's pillow talk color I feel like it fills
in my skin and it also sets down pretty well for a cream lip liner so it's got some longevity to it
I just really enjoy using it because it does not go on like a harsh line it really has such a nice
blur to it and blurring effect but the tip is so tiny you can get really precise
I've been reaching for it most days it's been such a great lip liner and then what I have all
over my lips which I think gets a plus points for me because it's very unique to the market
is the Maybelline lifter gel and this is in the color it doesn't really matter sugar spritz
because these are pretty much clear to be honest but the formula is what I'm really talking about
now a con is I don't like how much comes out but the actual formula itself I've always said I want
lips to look like liquid glass that's what this looks like it's so reflective you could almost
see my ring light in the reflection that's kind of how I want my lips to look so because this is
a formula like that that just fills in your lips so well it's so reflective but as you can see it
doesn't have much color to it so you really only need one but that is truly one of the most
reflective formulas that I have found it's pillowy it's not sticky you don't get those
like goop lines for something as thick as this which is pretty impressive so again
a plus on the formula it's so comfortable I use it quite often last but not least two setting
sprays I have tried this year that I absolutely adore so the first one again is from hard candy
this is their glow on lock setting spray it illuminates the skin it has a 16 hour hold it
looks like the iconic London where you shake it up and it has all of this beautiful illumination
to it this is incredible it does what it says the mister on it is amazing it has one of these super
fine mists oh my gosh and it's just it leaves you with such an intense glow to your face for like
seven bucks I don't know how they do it it's so amazing also morphe came out with the life
proof continuous setting mist and this has been my favorite setting spray the morphe setting spray
in the black one and the gold one for since it came out so when they came out with a little bit
more of like a hold to your face because I didn't see anything wrong with the other ones hold
but this one smells so fresh it almost smells like fresh laundry and flowers and then it has
such a fine mist on it it really does hold in your makeup without changing the finish
so I use this one first and then put a little bit more of a glow finish to my face but oh my gosh
forever repurchasing both of these I love them I've been reaching for them so much and they're
perfect for summer wait last but not least I completely forgot about these I've been meaning
to tell y'all about these because I've been testing these and using these behind the scenes
for like two months they go with me everywhere in my purse you know how that is and then you're like
wait what do I need to talk about and I keep forgetting because I love them so genuinely
much so I put them all back hopefully nicely in their little package so that you can see but these
are again from hard candy these are the hard candy pop tint lip stains I'm so excited I'm
gonna have to film a demo for you because I am so incredibly impressed with these they have two
different formulas they have the pop tint lip stain and then they also have the pop tint lip
stain that is a little bit more you see how the packaging one of them looks a little bit more
clear and you can see how watery it is this one is more opaque what you can do with these is they
are for the cheeks as well they both are they look incredible on the cheeks so this is such a
beautiful color this is the color cherry splash and they smell correspondingly like what their
flavor is this is again the color coconut colada and they're like water stain so you can kind of
see the difference so this will give you a little bit more of that watery tint and this one actually
has like color and pigment they both blend out on the cheeks really well but I love using them for
my lips so not only do they both smell incredible they taste good I am 100 sold if you make my adult
makeup taste like a lip smacker 100 I hate gross stuff in my mouth so that's why I've been using
these all the time because I'm a lip stain kind of person and do you know how lip stains taste
disgusting so these are incredible I've been meaning to tell y'all about them for months and
they're so affordable so if you're looking for something that will stain your cheek beautifully
these are incredible see how this one you have a little bit of time to work with it but it really
sets down and then these definitely set down a whole bunch so this is an incredible formula and
I have been keeping them in the nice package to show you and I like completely forgot
where they've been in my purse I am trying to scrub these off so hard success this is what
success looks like look at my hands all right everybody that is everything that is my roundup
