The Best Drugstore Makeup Ever! Part 3: Lips


Hi lovelies! The final part of this series will be focusing on all of my all-time favorite lip products! From glosses to balms and everything in between- it's all here! Just in case you've missed the first two parts of "The Best Makeup Ever", you can find Part 1: Face here, and Part 2: Eyes here

Without further adieu, let's jump into everything!




Best Tube Lip Balm:
Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm- I grew up on Burt's Bees lip balm, and it is one of the few products that has really stood the test of time for me! I also love knowing that it's made from natural ingredients, which is especially reassuring with a product that's going so close to the mouth.

Best Jar Lip Balm:
Nivea Lip Butter- Not only is this lip balm super hydrating, but it also smells and tastes amazing! The Vanilla Macadamia Kiss is my absolute favorite, but you really can't go wrong no matter which one you grab.

Best Tinted Lip Balm:
Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter- Revlon's Lip Butter is definitely a lot different than Nivea's. This product comes in a handy twist-up tube that basically looks like lipstick, but the color payoff is more sheer and moisture-rich, which I completely love!

Best Lip Gloss:
e.l.f. Essential Super Glossy Lip Shine- This lip gloss from e.l.f. provides tons of shine with minimum stickiness. I also really like how much color these glosses give, unlike many others that look pretty in the tube but then go on sheer.

Best Lip Laquer:
Rimmel Show Off/Apocalips Lip Laquer- I will admit, I was first drawn to these lip laquers because of the cool packaging. However, the product inside is definitely the real gem! The "laquer" consistency is basically like a liquid lipstick, with incredibly vibrant color and shine.

Best Lip Stick:
Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick- Revlon's Super Lustrous line has the creamy feel of a high-end lipstick without the price tag! The color selection is wonderful as well, with many dupes for famous shades featured in their collection. (See my drugstore dupes posts here for shade matches.)

As always, I would absolutely love to hear about all of YOUR favorite drugstore cosmetics in the comments below!
