New Drugstore Beauty Finds

Nexxus Pro-Mend Split End Binding Creme – $10.99
This wasn’t exactly a drugstore find, because I got it using my accumulated points from Birchbox (I’ve talked about why I love Birchbox here), but it is sold at most drugstores.  I was initially drawn to this because it was a leave-in treatment that was really affordable.  I also was in desperate need of a haircut at the time and needed something to remedy my split ends.  So far I really like it – it does seem to tame those split ends.  I’ve been using it every night.

Wet n’ Wild Coloricon Pencil in Taupe – $0.99
I use this to color in my eyebrows and give them a more defined shape.  This is the third pencil I’ve bought so you can definitely say it’s a part of my normal routine.  I would say it’s perfect for darker blondes who want darker eyebrows.  My eyebrows are naturally blonde and don’t show up well.  I think defined eyebrows really transform a face so this is a favorite…and it’s beyond affordable.

Wet n’ Wild Coverall Concealer in Light – $0.99 (I believe they re-formulized – can’t find online)
I honestly just picked this up because it was so cheap and I run out of concealer so often!  This is really waxy so I wouldn’t use it for highlighting or under-eye concealing, but I think this works great for pimples that pop up.  I have a scar above my lip so I need something thicker and more waxy to cover that because make-up always gets wiped off when I am eating.

NYX Retractable Lip Liner in Nude Pink – $4.49
I love having a neutral lip liner around at all times because I can wear it under any lip color.  (I have so many colors it would be crazy to have a lip liner to match each one!)  This one is really easy to apply, stays on long, and is a good price.

Wet n’ Wild Megaslicks Balm Stain in A Stiff Pink – $2.99
I couldn’t believe how long this lip color stayed on.  When I’m working I hate reapplying lip products – but I want to have something there.  I could wear this all day without reapplying, but do usually reapply once to keep the pink really bright.  It starts out bright and fades to amore natural pink stain.  When I’m not wearing my magic lipstick, this is the one.

Wet n’ Wild Megalast Lip Color in Purty Persimmon and Spotlight Red – $2.29
More Wet n’ Wild products!  I promise they aren’t sponsoring this post – their products are just so cheap – so it’s easy to stock up on a ton.  I have acquired about 5 or 6 of these lip sticks over time.  I am a huge fan.  They go on very matte, which can be hard to apply if your lips are dry, but as a result, they stay on for hours.  They are also super pigmented which I love.

Revlon Parfumerie Nail Polish in Lavender Soap & Pink Pineapple – $4.99
I was so drawn to the adorable bottles of these polishes I didn’t even stop to think they might actually smell good – but they do!  I didn’t notice the smell as much with the lavender soap, but the pink pineapple was so potent and delicious smelling.  They are more sheer, so they take more coats to apply but they definitely last a whole week which is a milestone in my book!

    I've been wondering about the hair products that claim they can help split ends because that would be amazing!

    I love Wet n' Wild's eyebrow pencil and the lipsticks are really great too (and yes, very chalky). I recently got the Spun Sugar shade from the Parfumerie line and I love the color but I can't smell anything! I've heard from other people/read online that the smell can be really strong with these so I'm relieved to hear you say that the lavender scent isn't as strong either. I was thinking I got a dud or something and I was hesitant to try more but now I really want the pineapple scent.
