Top 10 Under $10

Real Techniques Setting Brush $7.99

I use this brush every day! I mainly use it with a finishing powder to set my under eye concealer.  Occasionally I use it for a defined contour on my cheeks.  This is a very unique brush and I haven't really seen anything else like it around. 

Revlon Photo Ready Primer + Eyeshadow Bohemian $9.99

This is a newer product to my makeup collection, and my first impression of it totally proved my expectations wrong (in a good way!).  The shadows are creamy and easy to blend.  I also love the diversity of colors it offers for being such a small palette.  You can pull off easy every day neutral looks OR spunky colorful looks.  

Almay Get Up and Grow Mascara $7.99

I'm not a huge fan of Almay products, but I love this mascara.  It's the perfect every day mascara.  It has a drier formula, but that seems to really help with thickening my lashes.  It doesn't really clump or flake either which can be very hard to come by in drugstore mascaras. 

Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser Dark Circle Treatment Concealer Brightener $8.99

By itself, this concealer is not thick or dark enough to completely eliminate under eye darkness (or mine anyway).  However, this has an amazing brightening effect.  I use this product on a daily basis.

Loreal Voluminous Smoldering Eyeliner Black $8.99

This eyeliner rocks!  It's shorter and chubbier than your standard eyeliner pencil, but it works great on the waterlines! I typically reach for this when I'm trying to achieve a smudgy, smokey look.  

Milani Baked Blush, Luminoso $8.99

It's no secret that this blush is totally amazing and one of a kind.  It's not overly pigmented and it appears on the cheeks exactly how it looks in the pan.  It's easy to blend, and it's safe to say that this is my go to blush! 

NYX Eyeshadow Base $6.99

I've never been able to achieve the kind of brightness on my own that this product provides.  It has multiple purposes for me (primer, highlighter, inner corner color) and I've yet to experience any other product quite like it.  This has been a game changer for me, and I use it for a variety of different eyeshadow looks. 

SOHO Beauty Sponge, $7.99

Just when I thought all hope was lost for finding a beauty blender dupe, I stumbled upon this baby at Walgreens and it changed my foundation forever. 

Maybelline Lash Discovery Mascara, $7.99

Nothing is particularly outstanding about the formula of this mascara, however the brush is the reason that I'll probably be using and repurchasing this product forever.  It's the only mascara brush I've ever encountered that is small enough to allow me complete control while applying mascara to my bottom lashes.  

Maybelline Color Tattoo by Eyestudio Eyeshadow, $6.99

True to their name, once you put them on your lids they don't move! These are great on the go...I grab these when I'm extremely late and usually apply them with my finger while driving (not suggesting this approach).  The color pay off is really good, they're long wearing, great stand alone shadows AND they are easy to blend!

So there you have it... my top 10 under $10!
