V-day Drugstore Makeup

Hey all. The other day I did a post on cheap makeup palettes that could give you a subtle look for Valentine's Day. Here are some more options from the drugstore that can be mixed and matched to create your own look. Enjoy!

First up, need some bases to help make shadows pop or stick? Try these.

Maybelline 24h Color Tattoos in Barely Branded and Inked in Pink

The swatches are from an earlier post from like a year ago, so that's why they look different and have the names on them. Sorry, but I'm in a hurry. Using resources!

Hard Candy Mod Quad Baked Eye Shadow in Brownie Points

If you don't want to go for a super pink look, this quad is good for a soft, neutral look. Can't go wrong with neutrals! Love them so much :) Has anyone else noticed how long Hard Candy's names are for products? Goodness.

Almay Intense i-Color in Smoky-i for Browns

Here's a pretty trio from Almay. That rose gold is gorgeous, and the brown helps add some smoke if you so desire.

L'Oréal eye shadow single in Satin Tutu

This is a great shimmery light pink. It's SUPER shiny so it really brightens up the lid and eye.

Maybelline eye shadow duo in Pink Suede

This is a nice pink and warm, rusty brown.

Sally Girl eye shadow in Cinnamon

If you aren't feeling the pink, why not try a rose gold? It stays closer to skin tones.

Sally Girl eye shadow in White Chocolate

I think grays are a soft way of smoking up a romantic eye look.

NYX Roll On shadow in Salmon

Here's another great rose gold (ish) option! A nice neutraly pink color. It'll add some sparkle to your look, too.

Maybelline quad in Natural Smokes

This is a great quad for adding smoke to any of the pink shadows, or just using it on its own. You can create a subtle smokey eye, or a super dramatic one! It's very versatile, and a must in anyone's collection, Valentine's Day or not.

Well I hope this was helpful, even it was kind of last minute. But hey, they're good eye shadows no matter the holiday :)
