Top 4 Must Try Super Affordable Drugstore Brands

Hey everyone,

I hope you all are well. So, I wanted to do a little different kind of post today. I wanted to recommend you all super budget-friendly drugstore brands that are must try for every makeup lover. I have tried enough products from these brands to recommend them to all of you. I have kept specific to the brands that have mostly products under 1000Rs and we can really call them budget friendly.

There are many other drugstore brands that I absolutely love, but since they are on the expensive side, I will do a whole different post on those brands. These brands are ones I absolutely love and with few misses, they have majority great products. I will say anyone with any skin type and complexion can find a product from these brands that they will enjoy. I will also mention my holy grail must try products from these brands to even narrow down the recommendations for you.

Essence Cosmetics

Essence is the most affordable brand on this list. Essence is one of the most affordable drugstore brands that make very good quality makeup products. The prices of Essence products in Pakistan is super affordable too. If you are on a budget you can easily build a decent makeup collection buying Essence products. Essence makes one of the best lip liners out there. They are my personal favourite and super cheap. Essence is also famous among the beauty gurus for their super amazing cheek products. Their super soft blushes and highlighters are worth buying.

Essence has a great color range of nail polishes and their formula is really nice. If you are a nail polish lover you should definitely check out their range. They have few brushes, which are really nice quality, so you should give them a go. Their single eyeshadows are also one of my favourites and their eyeliners and mascaras are famous among makeup lovers too. My holy grail and most favourite product from Essence has to be their I Love Extreme Volume Mascara. It's the best drugstore mascara I have ever tried and it gives the perfect curl and volume without being clumpy or smudging. I recommend everyone to try out this mascara and I will be repurchasing it for life.

Makeup Revolution

Makeup Revolution is a well-known brand in Pakistan. Known best for its budget-friendly products. Makeup Revolution is praised a lot for its affordable eyeshadow palettes and the brand often introduce exact dupes of many high-end palettes. The pigmentation is decent and you get a lot of pretty shades. Makeup Revolution also has very nice pigmented blush and bronzer palettes, which I definitely recommend you all try out. The single highlighters and blushes of Makeup Revolution are another cult favourite, which I personally like too. They have some pretty shades of nail polishes that I really like.

The brand has a huge range of different lip products with different finishes and as a lipstick lover, I really like some of the pieces from their range. Their setting sprays and single eyeshadows are something that I absolutely love and will recommend. From their vast collection of products, their affordable brow products are my most favourite. Their Focus and Fix Brow Kit in medium-dark have to be my holy grail brow powder. Whomever I recommend this brow kit to, enjoys it as much as I do. It comes with three brow shades, a wax, a tweezer and a brow brush. I have reviewed this product in detail, which you can check here.

e.l.f Cosmetics

elf is another very well-known makeup brand that makes great affordable products. It is famous for its affordable blushes and highlighters, which are some of my favourite drugstore products. elf has recently launched eyeshadow palettes that have great formula and pigmentation and people have been liking it all over the beauty world. elf has very nice lip product range, some of which are really good products. elf foundation, primers and powders are very much liked and I think they are very nice quality products. They make one of my favourite brushes ever and has a huge range of face and eye brushes, containing every brush you will need to create a perfect makeup look.

 They recently introduced their skincare line, which carries amazing products and I have seen many good reviews on them, so you should definitely check out. My favourite products from elf have to be their contour and blush quads, which are so good quality that it's hard to believe they are drugstore products. My holy grail product from elf is their Blush Palette in Dark, which consists of super pigmented four blushes that look beautiful on your cheeks and since I have been using these blushes I hardly use any other ones. I definitely recommend everyone to get their blush and contour palettes and since elf has its own website in Pakistan, you can find all their products under one roof. 

Wet n Wild

If I have to name one brand in this list that makes one of my favourite ever drugstore products among all, it has to be Wet n Wild. I rave about their products a lot because believe you me they are that good. Sometimes I just get in a state of shock that how can one get such high-quality makeup products at such affordable prices. Wet n Wild makes the most loved and raved about blushes, highlighters and contour kits out there. Their face products are must try according to me. They have super cheap, but amazing makeup brushes that are also must buy. Wet n Wild has the most pigmented and amazing quality eyeshadows at the drugstore. They have a long range of nail polish formulas and colors that I will definitely recommend you all to try.

Wet n Wild came out with a whole new range of foundation, concealer, face powder and primers that have been getting amazing reviews by all makeup lovers and I am going to try them out for myself. Wet n Wild has so many great products to like, but if I have to choose one, my holy grail product from this brand has to be their MegaLast Lipsticks. I have probably bought dozens of these lipsticks to keep in my collection and gift to friends and family. They make one of my favourite lipsticks ever. They are super pigmented with comfortable long lasting formulas and beautiful shades that you can't help but love them. If you are going to try one product from Wet n Wild, be it their MegaLast lipsticks and then you will want to try their every product. I have reviewed their mega last lipsticks in detail with swatches here.
