I'm always on a mission to find a good drug store concealer, too, so loving all these suggestions. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drugstore-makeup#post-640354 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 14:03:44 +0000 LuLu Mom 640354@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Foundation: Almay Perfect Match, i use this when I'm feeling too cheap to buy Smashbox. Although it sounds like I might have to try Revlon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drugstore-makeup#post-640240 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 13:34:45 +0000 littlebittyhouse 640240@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>L'oreal has a great professional secrets line and I swear by their primer under eyeshadow! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drugstore-makeup#post-639801 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 12:03:18 +0000 mrskc 639801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I need to try Revlon colorstay! </p> <p>I know you didn't mention eye shadow, but Loreal is my fav! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drugstore-makeup#post-639785 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 12:00:53 +0000 Mrs. Bee 639785@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i haven't tried drugstore foundations other than revlon colorstay, but it really is fantastic. my makeup artist friend uses it even though she has all the expensive brands at her disposal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drugstore-makeup#post-639753 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:50:01 +0000 shopaholic 639753@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My favorite drugstore makeup line is L'oreal True Match for powder/concealer/foundation. L'oreal also for eyeliners and mascaras. I like Sonia Kashuk for eyeshadows and blushes as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drugstore-makeup#post-639739 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:47:34 +0000 wheres_c 639739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@WALLAROO: if you have ulta near you, they sometimes have samples of the drugstore brands available to try. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drugstore-makeup#post-639732 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:46:58 +0000 WALLAROO 639732@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@keiki_mama: great tips. Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drugstore-makeup#post-639721 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:43:59 +0000 fussygal 639721@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the Revlon foundation, too. Loreal full and soft mascara, Rimmel Exaggerate eyeliner, and revlon eyeshadows are all favs. All my makeup, except my NARS blush are from the drugstore! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drugstore-makeup#post-639717 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:43:18 +0000 keiki_mama 639717@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@WALLAROO: I'm also a big fan of the Colorstay line. I've had good luck with their regular Colorstay foundation and the whipped version. It's hard to narrow the right shade so I always look up "MAC &lt;insert your MAC color&gt; Revlon colorstay equivalent" or something along those lines and read a couple of opinions before heading out to make a drugstore foundation purchase. Even though Target has competitive prices, I usually go to Walgreens or CVS for foundations because they have an awesome return policy! If it doesn't match, they will take it back (ask the clerk first to double check) whereas Target will not take back makeup that has been opened.</p> <p>Happy shopping! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drugstore-makeup#post-639714 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:42:30 +0000 photojane 639714@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use BB cream all over, and then put a little extra on blemishes and under my eyes like concealer. I like Revlon PhotoReady for foundation, and I use cheap CG pressed powder. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drugstore-makeup#post-639708 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:41:32 +0000 LindsayInNY 639708@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use Maybelline SuperStay foundation - sounds like it's probably very similar to the Revlon one. And basic CoverGirl power! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drugstore-makeup#post-639678 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:33:57 +0000 WALLAROO 639678@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@zippylef: ooh thanks!</p> <p>How do you find the right shade? At the MAC store you can try the different shades. Do I just guess and hope to get it right within a few purchases? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drugstore-makeup#post-639671 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:31:53 +0000 DigAPony 639671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really like my Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse foundation. I bought loose powder to brush on top....Cover Girl brand, I think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drugstore-makeup#post-639667 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:31:07 +0000 Reese 639667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@zippylef: thank you for sharing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drugstore-makeup#post-639666 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:31:04 +0000 Ash 639666@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I second Revlon Colorstay :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drugstore-makeup#post-639660 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:29:22 +0000 mrsjazz 639660@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@zippylef: Yes!

Can you recommend your favorite concealer, foundation, and powder that can be purchased at Target? </p>
