My Current Top 5 Makeup Products Under £5.00


Collection 2000 Extreme 24 Hour Felt Tip Liner £2.99
I love my liquid eyeliner for nights out and after using this I'm a felt tip liner convert! I find it much easier to achieve a straight line and create flicks with this. Full review here.

Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Concealer in Fair £4.19
This is a recent discovery for me, thanks to the bloggersphere! It provides great coverage on dark circles and imperfections without going cakey. Full review to come.

MUA Undressed Palette £4.00
It was a close call between this and Maybelline Color Tattoo, but I'm getting a lot more wear out of the Undressed Palette at the moment. For under £5.00 you get twelve fab eyeshadows (plus a brush) that are strikingly similar to the Urban Decay Naked Palette. Full review here.

E.L.F Eyelid Primer in Sheer £1.50
I can't believe how well this works for the price - it extends the wear of my eyeshadow considerably. I can't believe I never used a primer before this! Full review here.

The Body Shop Born Lippy Stick Lip Balm in Pomegranate £3.00
This red-dy orange tinted lip balm smells delicious, leaves a subtle wash of colour on the lips and contains Beeswax, keeping my lips soft and moisturised. I also have it in Lychee. Full review here.

What are your favourite makeup products under £5.00?

  2. Really good picks! I love the Collection 2000 Extreme Eyeliner - I can't imagine my life without it. I really want E.L.F eyelid primer because I have such oily eyelids and this sounds incredible.

    1. The Natural Collection blushes look lovely, but they don't list any ingredients on them so I haven't bought them :-( Annoying cos they have some great shades!x

  8. I think you have 3 of the things i would include in my list. The elf eye primer, MUA palette and the Collection 2000 conceal or. I love all of those. I reach for them all on a daily basis. Over so many of my high end options.
    I love a liquid eyeliner. I am going to have to buy the Collection 2000 Extreme 24 Hour Felt Tip Liner and see how i get on with it
    Loved this post!

  15. I love MUA palettes and ELF primers...they're so good and so cheap too!xo

  16. I like your post ,but I assess that only 5 make up products are not enough in daily use. Their are many websites like, Xtras , which are offering beauty products in a low prices.I use them ,and found them more good then MUA products.
