This is my first full week back at work for the school year. RIP summer break - it's hard to believe you've already come and gone. Over the summer, I typically don't wear as much makeup. I've used my relaxed mornings (not leaving the house until about 11:30 - only if I have to) to perfect my next-to-little-effort-required makeup routine. My simple look wouldn't be possible without some of my favorite drugstore favorites. I've probably mentioned it before, but I'm a bargain shopper, so I'm all about spending less than $10 on my makeup.
Neutrogena Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes - Perfect for taking the day off. I make it a point to never sleep in my makeup.
Maybelline Rocket Volum' Express Mascara - Love the volume and impact this gives to my lashes without being too much.
Neutrogena Moisturesmooth Color Stick - My lips are constantly dry, so I was sold once I saw that this stuff added color AND moisture. Win win.
Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Nail Polish - My go-to when I'm in a pinch and need to quickly fix my naked or chipped nails. Seriously dries in like two minutes.
Essie Nail Polish (Watermelon & In The Cabana) - I have a whole box full of nail polish, yet I constantly rotate between these two and Sally Hansen's Peachy Breeze.
Essie Good To Go Topcoat - I can be impatient, so I'm really bad at sitting around waiting for my nails to dry. This really helps speed up the process!
Honorable mention: these makeup brushes (1, 2, 3) work great and don't even come close to breaking the bank!
So tell me, what are you summer go-to products that don't break the bank? Let me know in the comments!
P.S. I'm looking for a new CC/BB cream, so please let me know if you have any recommendations!
I'm totally all about letting my skin breathe during the summertime, I try to only wear makeup maybe 1 or 2 days per week tops-and I swear by those makeup remover wipes as well!

Me too, and I love that my job allows me to do that in the summer! Thanks for reading!
DeleteThe Neutrogena wipes are my major go to! Also the Instadry nail polish (because I can't sit still long enough to wait for my nail polish to dry! lol)
