Friday Favorites: 10 Best Summer Beauty Buys Under $10

June 3, 2016

It’s June! And it’s Friday! So, that means it’s high time for some Friday Favorites. Today it’s about Summer Beauty Buys, all under $10.  

For summer, I love bronzer on my cheeks and a pop of color on my lips. I keep everything else pretty minimal.

Here are my 10 best summer beauty buys for under $10. Because you don’t have to spend a fortune to get a beautiful sun-kissed look. (And, you don’t have to spend hours laying out in the sun!)

Have a wonderful weekend!

polyvore summer beauty buys

  1. Maybelline New York Unstoppable Eyeliner This is hands down my favorite eyeliner. I wore this Chanel eyeliner until I realized that this little baby is exactly the same, and so much less expensive. It stays on forever and will last through summer sweat.  
  2. Rimmel Natural Bronzer I discovered this bronzer awhile ago, and I love it. If you love Clinque bronzer, try this one! Very similar, and a fraction of the price. It’ll give you that beautiful summer glow.
  3. e.l.f. Kabuki Face Brush Brush You don’t have to spend a fortune on brushes! This one is perfect for bronzer.
  4. L’Oreal True Match Super Blendable Makeup  I discovered this little gem about a decade ago, and love that it still makes “Best” lists each year. It’s great for summer and will give you that dewy glow, without being too heavy.
  5. Maybelline Great Lash Mascara I’ve been wearing this mascara for YEARS. I’ve tried so many others, and always return to this good ol’ trusty pink tube. It stays on forever and doesn’t flake.
  6. Bonne Bell Lipsmackers  Maybe it’s the kid in me (or maybe my sweet tooth??), but I use these every day. I love them. (And Harper tries to eat them.)
  7. Neutrogena Moisturesmooth Color Stick in Bright Berry This is a favorite of makeup artists. Such a pretty pop of color for summer. PLUS, it helps makes your lips smoother, even after you take it off. Yay.
  8. Rimmel Kate Face Sculpting Kit Because: Kate Moss.  
  9. Maybelline New York The Blushed Nudes I love the range of nudes in this compact!  Great for during the day, or you can layer them for night.
  10. Vaseline  An oldie, but a goodie. There’s just not much this little tub can’t do. Perfect for removing waterproof eye makeup!

    I love that Rimmel bronzer and the mascara – that one has been a favorite for so long! Nothing compares. And I totally forgot about the power of Vaseline – ha! Great tips!

    I’m kind of getting into makeup a lot lately, so I love these recommendations! I used to use that Blackest Black Mascara, how did I forget about it? I need some. Also, I am dying to get those Blushed Nudes. I’ve seen them around a bunch of times lately and they look SO pretty!

    I need to step up my makeup game. I prefer natural tones, so I love that palette.

    I have so many high end bronzers, but Rimmel Natural Bronzer will always remain one of my absolute faves! It’s so good!

    I have quite a few of the items you listed and I love them all. My fave is the Maybelline palette.

    Love ELF products as reasonably priced makeup solutions. Everyone seems to be raving about that palette, so I may have to give it a try.

    I seriously love a good makeup steal, and I love when people share their reviews on makeup, so I don’t have to test it first. 🙂 Thanks for sharing!
