My Favourite Affordable Everyday Eye Makeup

Hey, how’s it going? I haven’t wrote a post like this in ages. I honestly think the last time I did was in 2016. I got home from the gym and was throwing on some quick eye makeup and thought I would share what my current, affordable look looks like.

I didn’t take a picture, but I do use this eyeshadow brush for my crease and tear duct.  

Maybelline Eye Studio Colour Tattoo Cream Eyeshadow in Inked in Pink: I had ordered this product back in January but honestly didn’t really find a use for it. However, as spring as sprung, I love using this pretty pink on my eyelid. It’s subtle enough to be an everyday shadow and totally work friendly, too.

Urban Decay Naked2 Basics Eyeshadow Palette: I know people sometimes get really upset when Urban Decay products or other Sephora brands get included in “affordable” posts. However, this product is only $36 and it’s honestly one of the best palettes I have ever used in my life, I would rate it 5/5 stars. Plus, they’re all matte colours which is sweet! As you can probably tell from the picture, I definitely use Frisk the most – I love it for a simple lid colour. Recently, I’ve been blending Primal into my crease, Skimp into my tearduct then the Maybelline colour onto my lid. It makes for a really pretty look!

L’Oreal Paris Voluminous White Primer: Using this product is very new to me. Maybe 5 days or so. However, I apply it before my mascara and I find it just makes the application so much easier and a base on build volume on with my mascara.

L’Oreal Paris Voluminous Original Waterproof Mascara: I usually hate mascara. I find it clumps and looks terrible. This product has become a serious game changer to me, though. One thing I love about this mascara is it’s extremely easy to build on – one coat is great for a simple, errands running or work look but you can also add multiple coats to add extra volume.

I’m not an eyeliner person, I find it looks terrible on me. That’s why there’s no eyeliner.

I don’t really use drugstore eye primer. I do like this primer, I have been using it forever.

I really enjoy this eyebrow palette and it’s a really good price point for people on a budget.
