Beauty Bargain: Stila’s Shadow-Liner Duo Pencil Goes Drugstore-Friendly!
Posted in: Uncategorized  | I’ve tested (and collected) enough makeup to know that not all beauty brands are created equal. But that doesn’t mean I don’t still compulsively hit up the Walgreens cosmetics aisle to scope out the latest bargain beauty loot! I mean, considering how much money I spend on makeup in the grand scheme of things, drugstore products are practically free (a terribly dangerous outlook, I know). Next up on my list of things I’m dying to test out is CoverGirl Smoky ShadowBlasts ($7.99 at Ulta), a double-ended pencil with shadow on one end and liner on the other. It looks remarkably similar to Stila’s Convertible Eye Color pencil, which I’ve always wanted to try but I could never bring myself to shell out $22 for a eye pencil, even if it is 2 in 1. While they both come in a wide variety of coordinating color duos, the Stila version may provide a little more accuracy given that the pencil is thinner. But hey — the key ingredient to a smoky eye is just a dash of messiness after all, so I’m still leaning towards CoverGirl for a fraction of the cost! I think I can hold my hand steady enough to achieve the look for less just fine! Do you have your own drugstore beauty secrets? Tell us about them in COMMENTS! |
