Best Drugstore Beauty Makeup and Hair Products
Happy Top Ten Tuesday! Today I wanted to share my picks for the best cruelty free drugstore beauty, makeup, nails and hair products. It was hard to narrow down my list, but here’s what I finally decided upon.
Best Drugstore Beauty Makeup and Hair Products
1. Wet n’ Wild Fergie Primer
This is a great, budget friendly primer from Wet n’ Wild. They also make some great eyeshadow singles like Panther, Nutty and Brulee.
2. Gud by Burts Bees Body Wash
It’s no secret I love the Gud by Burt’s Bees line. I love the Mango Moonbreeze, Pearanormal Activity, and Vanilla Flame scents especially. See my review.
3. Nyx Eyebrow Gel
Available in 5 shades, the Black is my preferred match. I love the texture. This is supposed to be a cruelty free dupe for Make Up For Ever Aqua Brow.
4. Nyx Angel Veil Face Primer
I’ve raved about how much I love this primer. I feel like it brightens my skin. See my review.
5. Batiste Dry Shampoo
Without dry shampoo I would be a sad panda. I love Batiste and it’s been a staple for me for years. The XXL Plumping Powder is great too and it’s a great cruelty free dupe for Redken Powder Grip.
6. Reviva Labs Alpha Lipoic Acid, Vitamin C Ester, & DMAE Cream
This is a really nicely formulated night cream from Reviva Labs. I just wish it came in airless pump packaging! See my review.
7. Real Techniques Duo Fiber Makeup Brushes
I love the contour brush in this set for applying blush. These are my favorite brushes that Real Techniques have ever made.
8. Orly Baked Collection
It’s rare I buy an entire nail polish collection but the Orly Baked was one I HAD to have! See my review.
9. Prestige Total Intensity Eyeshadows
These are new to me but I especially love Bewitched, Bronze, Black Magic and The Chase. The Total Intensity Eyeshadows line is great. See my review.
10. Marc Anthony Volume Shine Hairpsray
This is my favorite hair spray and I’ve raved about it before. It holds exceptionally well in my hair, especially in the Florida heat. I love the Marc Anthony brand and especially their Oil of Morocco and Coconut Oil lines. See my Favorite Summer Hair Products.
Those Gud body washes are great but I haven’t bought one in a while. Thanks for the reminder
I have never tried the gud products. Must scope those out! I love Real Techniques brushes, too! 🙂
I absolutely adore the Fergie primer. I see no reason to buy UDPP after using it!
I want to try that WetNWild primer!
Orly makes some amazing polish, don’t they?
Forgot about the Mark Anthony Moroccan Oil hairspray and thank you for the Reviva Labs mention!
Love this list. I just got the WnW e/s primer and I’m looking forward to using it. I never thought to put in Reviva Labs since I don’t see it in drugstores. Good choice.
They’re at Ulta and Walgreens by me, so I figured they would be ok 🙂
Twice my Angel Veil separated, very watery at first squeeze. Now I give it a good shake and sort of knead the tube before I squeeze it out and it’s perfect, as well as a bargain!
I always have to shake that tube first, or yeah it separates
Great post! Gonna check these out soon!
Glad you like them!
I just grabbed a set of 6 of the Prestige Eyeshadows for only $14! It was the last set available too! Will have fun playing with them… It’s so funny just the other day I found out that Prestige was CF and was looking at their stuff. Great timing!
I love the Batiste XXL dry shampoo – I know a lot of people hate the way it makes hair feel but it’s the only way I get any volume! Awesome list, I’ll have to try the GUD stuff too!
Try the XXL Plumping Powder, it’s awesome (also by Batiste)
OMG I AM LOVING THIS LIST!!!!! I see so many goodies I want to try!!! 😀 😀 😀 The Burts Bees Body Wash, (I loved your review and thanks for posting the ingredients, that is really a time saver for me!) I am loving that Orly Nail Polish collection, (WOW those colors, I just can’t stop looking at them! :D) That dry shampoo looks awesome too I saw Batiste online and wondered about their products. I may check out that hair spray too, all day hold and no stickiness!!!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!! 😀 😀 😀 THANKS FOR POSTING ALL THE NICE GOODIES!!! I SEE MANY I PLAN ON TRYING!!!
Batiste is my favorite dry shampoo, so awesome.
I’m really interested in trying the NYX Eyebrow Gel…do you find it in store or order?
I found mine in store at Ulta, but you can also order it online from Ulta.com. I included a link above if you want to use it.
I love your list! I’m seriously still so determined to find those Orly’s. IDK why local places only ever seem to get one of anything =(
Buy them from Amazon? I hate having to chase down drugstore collections. So often they’ll only get partials.
