Makeup # Under 280

Hi Everyone

Today i will be sharing some of my experience about affordable makeup which is available in the market or online,these makeup products are useful for college going students,beginners or girls who are looking for affordable makeup.Some products listed below are what i use on a daily basis.Lets begin

#1 SUNSCREEN

Since its summer,sunscreen is very important even if you stay indoors.Sunscreen is also known as Suncream or Sunblock,it protects our skin from the sun's ultraviolet rays.If you are looking for a good sunscreen which is affordable and effective i would recommend The Neutrogena Sunscreen SPF 50.
It absorbs into the skin quickly
Its travel friendly
Its waterproof and sweat proof
This product does not cause breakouts or clog the pores
Its ideal for all skin types
Can be used on your face and body

Buy it here : Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry Touch Sunblock - SPF 50 PA+++

I have been using this sunscreen since 2014 and this is my holy grail product,I just love it.Now where the price is concerned for 30 ml Rs 199 and you get a tube of 88 ml for Rs 480.It is available in the market as well as online.

#2 KAJAL

If you are that kind of person who loves kajal,then you can opt for the Maybelline Colossal Kajal,though there are many affordable kajal nowadays in the market,however my favourite is the Maybelline Colossal.The texture of this kajal is very creamy and glides on smoothly but need to be a bit careful because since the texture is creamy it tends to break if pressure is applied and if you have oily lids it might crease but you can set it with a black eyeshadow
Pigmentation is pretty good
Sets to a matte finish after few seconds
I did not feel any irritation or allergy in my eyes
Color does not smudge or fade

I like this kajal a lot and the best part is that you do not have to worry about sharpening it and the kajal can be removed easily.Price 199 Rs for 0.35g

#3 EYELINER

I am not huge fan of eyeliner however i have tried the Lakme Black Impact Liner and i kind of like it,easy to apply and does not smudge. The packaging is really cute and it has a silky formula and glides on smoothly
Does not smudge or has that feathering bleeding
Stays on eyes for good time
Fast Drying
Brush has a comfortable grip
Travel friendly

If you want a good eyeliner that dries to matte black finish,then you can try this.Overall its not a bad eyeliner.Price 195 Rs for 3.5 ml

#4 MASCARA

I have been using the Maybelline Hypercurl Volum'Express Mascara and this was my first purchase.Mascara comes in use when you don’t want too much going on,but would want some definition to your eyelashes.This mascara stays all day on me and it does not smudge until i remove it.
It does not weigh down my eyelashes
Does not flake or smear
It comes off easily
The brush is a bit curved which is a good thing, as it curls the eyelashes
The formula is neither too dry nor too thick

If you haven't started using mascara,you are missing something!Mascara is used to lengthen and give definition.Price 275 Rs for 9.2 ml

#4 LACTO CALAMINE

This product has been in the market for a very long time,if you are one of them who do not like or do not want to apply foundation you can opt for this product and at young age one really doesn't  need a foundation.I would recommend Lacto Calamine as it is easily available .

#5 FOUNDATION

If Lacto Calamine doesn’t fulfill your requirement and you do not want to spend thousands of rupees for a foundation, then you can try foundation.The Coloressence Aqua Makeup Base is very pocket friendly.Active Ingredients are Vitamin E acetate, Punarnava extract.

#6 BB CREAM

I always prefer BB cream over CC cream (my personal opinion). I have used many BB Creams from different brands however i always come back to the PONDS BB Cream.It brightens my skin and makes it look fresh.Please do not expect this BB Cream to give a high coverage but if you have mild pimple marks or blemish it will work.

This can be used daily instead of using foundation
It blends easily and does not set in fine lines
