The best drugstore beauty products..♡ (Boots & chemists etc..)

Hello my loves,

I want to do a little blog post today on my 5 favourite best drugstore beauty products.
 For those who aren't sure what this means, the drugstore is like Boots, Superdrug and even your local pharmacy. It's the brands we all know like L'Oreal, Maybelline, Bourjois etc. 
I think that the drugstore is so over looked because people obsess over all the high end brands, but honestly you can find some real gems!
 I'm going to pick the ones that will be available to the majority of people, so if you want to find out more, keep reading :)




Maybelline Eraser eye concealer 
Price: €11.99
Buy it here: Boots


This is one of my favourite concealers in my makeup collection, even up against the high end brands. The consistency is PERFECT for under your eyes because although it covers amazingly - it's just never cakey. Also the spongy applicator makes it really easy if you need to do a touch up at any time. I use the shade light because I like to brighten that area, especially in the mornings!

L'Oreal Miss Manga Mascara
Price: €12.99
Buy it here: Boots


In my opinion, L'Oreal is the queen of drugstore mascara - I tried all the rest but I always return to a L'Oreal mascara. What I look for in a mascara is to give me dark black voluminous lashes. That's what this mascara does. It's my favourite from the brand and again I always have one in my makeup collection. Mascara is one of those things that I don't believe you need to go to the higher end brands like Lancome etc. for, the drugstore provides you with many equally as amazing versions.

Rimmel Lasting finish lipsticks
Price: €6.99
Buy it here: Boots


So yes, I love my Mac lipsticks, Velvet Teddy & Faux have a special place in my heart. However, I love, own and will always recommend Rimmel's Lasting finish lipstick collection. There is a colour for everyone and every skin tome,  and their collaboration with Kate Moss has added beautiful nudes and reds to the collection. Some of my favourite shades are 'Asia', 'Birthday suit' & 'Gold in coral'. 

Sleek makeup Precious Metals highlighting palette
Price: €13.49
Where to buy: Boots


From the minute I saw this, I knew it had to be mine & I was so right. As a brand, I adore Sleek and their little convenient, bargainious yet brilliant quality palettes get me every time. This is a cream  & one powder highlighting palette. The bronze shade is your  powder and gives you that subtle J-lo glow because it is very sheer, it's not intended for a contour. All the shades blend perfectly and naturally into the skin. I always get compliments on my glow when I wear the highlights in this palette.

SEVENTEEN Instant Glow tan cream bronzer
Price: €8.49
Where to buy: Boots


I have been wearing this since the day they released it and it's the only bronzer I ever use.
Powder bronzers just do not work on my skin type at all and they leave me patchy by mid day. So I'm a cream girl all day. I use this to warm up my skin and as a light natural sun kissed contour. I think I've probably gone through 5 of these in my life and I will cry eternally if they discontinue this ever.

So there you have it, these are my favourites of the drugstore to date, all the ones that I just have to have.
 I am always trying new stuff from there because I love to experiment and find the best quality products for the best price, so I will do update post when I find new bits and pieces!

With love from,

Rebekah x♡

  1. Totally agree on the Rimmel lipsticks, they're great quality. I've just bought the Miss Manga mascara as well after thinking I wouldn't like it and I'm actually very impressed! Its a great dupe for Too Faced Better Than Sex. Great list!
