All New to Me | Drugstore Haul

"Happiness is new cosmetics...Many of them."

Okay, so not 100% true in the title because I have used these three products for years. They're ones I repurchase every time I run out of them without fail. I would highly recommend all these products to anyone!  

I needed a new eyeliner since my NYX liquid eyeliner pen just ran out. I didn't absolutely love the NYX liner so trying something new seems like a good idea. I picked up both these e.l.f. liners and plan to compare them to (hopefully) find a new go-to. I've been really loving e.l.f. as a brand lately so I have a good feeling about these liquid liners! 

Of course I've tried the Bioré nose strips before and they work amazingly! I've never tried the face strips though. I'm hoping they hope to reduce the whiteheads and blackheads I have on my chin and forehead. 

Everyone seems to rave about Micellar waters lately so I thought I'd give it a go. I've been using (and loving) a few Garnier skin products lately which made the Garnier brand Micellar water my first choice. 

I'm excited to try all the new products I've picked up! I'll post again in a few weeks with an update on all the products! If you have any more product recommendations please do let me know.

Mini Beauty Haul

1. Essie - Lollipop 2. Essie - Find Me An Oasis 3. Maybelline Fit Me Concealer in 10 Light 4. NYX Powder Foundation in 01 Ivory 5. Rimmel Stick Concealer in 201 Neutraliser

I took a little trip to the drug store to pick up some things and thought I'd share those purchases with you guys! 

The first thing I did was go straight for the Essie nail enamels since they were on for $7.99 from $10.99. I picked up the red colour for Canada Day which I featured in this post. The other Essie colour was an impulse buy as I'm not typically drawn to blue polishes but I'm really looking forward to trying it out. 

I picked up the Fit Me concealer because I have been reading a bunch of reviews about it and I've yet to try it. I got the lightest colour that my drugstore had but I think I may have to wait a bit longer into the summer to use it as it's a bit dark for me. 

The NYX stay matte but not flat foundation is my go to foundation all year round so this is a repurchase. I'm not a huge fan of liquid foundations because I think they feel really heavy on my skin and I find that I can never find a liquid foundation that doesn't look cakey on my skin. This foundation is really aptly named as it really does keep you matte all day without looking 2-D. As far as powder foundations go I'd say it's medium-full coverage but comparing it with liquid foundations it's probably light-medium coverage. 

The Rimmel concealer I picked up on a whim since the Wake Me Up concealer in the lightest shade that I use for brightening my under eyes was sold out. I'm looking forward to seeing how the coverage is with this as I've never tried a stick concealer before.

Let me know how you've got on with these products and if there are any other ones I should try out!

Thanks for reading, xo, Katelyn
