Top 10 Under $10 Beauty Tag

One of my favorite YouTube beauty gurus, emilynoel83 (Beauty Broadcast), did a video on this tag, so I thought I'd give it a go in blog form.  Since this is a tag, I would love to know what your top 10 under $10 beauty products are, so leave a comment and link to your blog or video below!

Drum roll please...





My Top 10 Under $10 (in no particular order; it was hard enough just narrowing it down to 10 items!):

  1. got2b Smooth Operator Hairspray ($6.49) - This is great at taming those fly-aways without leaving your hair feeling dry or crunchy.  This hairspray also smells nice but is not overpowering, which is a must-have in my book!
  2. Simple Oil Balancing Cleansing Wipes ($6.49 at Walgreens) - I've tried most of the cleansing wipes from Simple and these are by far my favorite.  The wipes contain oil and are alcohol free so they clean without stripping all oil and further drying out those dry parts of your face.
  3. mark. Shine Fighter Oil-Control Mask ($10) - OK, so this isn't under $10, but it's too good to leave off this list.  I actually like to use this in the morning before I get in the shower once a week or whenever I remember to use it.  I'd use this everyday if I didn't love the snooze button so much!
  4. Real Techniques Expert Face Brush ($8.99; buy one get one 50% off at Ulta through 6/28, plus get $3.50 off $10 with this coupon) - I used to be a big fan of e.l.f.'s stipple brush but since trying this, it's all I use!  The hype is legit!
  5. Wet n Wild MegaLast Nail Color in Private Viewing ($1.99) - This is such a beautiful nude-pink with very subtle shimmer.  It really does last!
  6. Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder ($4.99; shown in Sandstorm) - A must for oily skin!  I use this every single day with a sponge (NOT powder brush) - my face would be a disco ball without it!
  7. e.l.f Bronzer in Tan ($2) - Before trying this, I had a hard time finding the right bronzer for my skin tone.  This is a perfect matte bronzer for those medium skin tones!
  8. NYX Blush in Dusty Rose ($5) - I am naturally attracted to bright blushes that aren't necessarily right for my skin tone, but after hearing several positive reviews on this particular shade I decided to give it a try.  Now it's my all-time favorite blush!
  9. NYX Auto Eyebrow Pencil ($4.50; shown in dark brown) - This has the perfect consistency for eyebrows and the brush is perfect for blending.  It doesn't look greasy and will last all day!
  10. Revlon ColorStay Ultimate Suede Lipstick in High Heels ($9.99, click here for $1 off coupon; on sale at Ulta for $6.99 through 6/28 along with other Revlon eye and lip products) - I am loving this product right now!  The color is gorgeous, and I only have to reapply this once, usually after eating.  It can feel a bit sticky, but I think it's a fair trade considering how long it lasts.
*Prices may vary.

There you have it!  My current top 10 under $10!  Again, I'd love to hear from you, so feel free to leave a comment with your top 10!

Thanks for reading!
