As a high end make uo user I tried some cheaper brands as ive got super drug and boots five minutes walk from home and don't often get into town centre these days.
I've been pleasantly surprised by mua at superdrug and other cheaper brands. I avoid anything with sparkle as at 37 I find it aging. The mua single colour eyeshadow are good I have mainly neutral brown and creamy colours but all last well. I use a L'Oréal primer its in a pot and a bit like vaseline. I only use it on my t zone though.

Mascara I like chanel waterproof but bourjois sensitive eye one has been fab.

Moisturiser I use nivea soft but really like clinique dramatically different as its not greasy. But nivea soft isfab gofor all over. They sell it in lidl.

Scrub wise you cant beat soap and glory ones also their hand cream. I find their body moisturiser sticky though

Lip wise. I only like chanel lipstick but the chubby stick type ones are good too as not as thick as lipstick and not highly perfumed. I currently have clinique, mua & revlon ones. Also maybeline baby lips for daytime barely there tinted lips.

Foundation I like bobbi brown or for lighter base oil of olay tinted moisturiser. Avon pressed powder the anti aging one is good. Eyeliner rimmel is good I often just line my upper and lower lids snd then smudge them.

For hair and face masks I pick up those sachets for single use from superdrug. Im a sucker for peel off face masks. Sainsbury do a dirty works range that has a lovely rose moisturising mask and lots of good products. Their foot file is brilliant then plaster feet in nivea soft and put some socks on!
