I haven't bought makeup in Brazil since I started traveling, with a few exceptions (hello who said, Berenice?).
Not that Brazilian brands aren't great, but the price of pharmacy products in the United States is unbeatable. There's eyeshadow for $0.99, highlighter for $1 and so on, and the quality leaves nothing to be desired.
Looking through my drawer, I think at least 80% of the items were purchased at Target, Walmart, and Walgreens. I can do a complete makeup look, from skin preparation to a smoky eye and false eyelashes, without investing much.
And that's what I wanted to share with you in this post today! Several options for putting together a makeup kit in the United States on a budget!
Here are the best products in each category according to what I have already tested, or heard good things about, both from readers and other bloggers and y.
To make it easier, I linked all the products directly to the Amazon website. If you don't have time in your itinerary to shop, you can buy online and have it delivered directly to your hotel. The store accepts Brazilian credit cards and has almost all the products mentioned here available. It's also the best option if you're going to ask a friend to bring it, as this way you can choose the products and send them directly to where she's staying.
Remembering that I I only use products that have not been tested on animals. You won't see Maybelline, Loreal, Revlon and other similar brands here! There are alternatives better, cheaper and free from suffering : )
