Quick foundation help

I need to go make up shopping this morning and I've run out of a few things at once. I need foundation, concealer, mascara and a new brow kit.

I usually buy from benefit and Estée Lauder but I can't afford a splurge today so I'm looking at budget brands.

Can anyone recommend a medium coverage foundation that isn't cakey or drying?

Reccs for eyebrow kits also welcome, I usually use brow zings but it was a very long time ago I purchased that.

Something I can buy in boots or the supermarket would be great!

Primark or Wilco for all of it

Maybelline are my favourite Boots/Superdrug buy. I’m using the dream urban cover foundation and it’s great, also love their undereye concealer with the sponge, their mascaras are also my favourite especially the rocket and the falsies. Loreal does brilliant mascaras too, as so Max Factor. Maybellines brow pencils are okay too but I also love the sleek brow kit, it’s pretty much identical to benefits.

Bourjois was on 3 for 2 in boots and I'd heard good things so I bought the healthy mix foundation and concealer and also a pink glow primer.

I've had a little play and for £20 for the lot I'm impressed.

The primer was a scary shade of pink but used under foundation it gives a nice glow. The foundation I'd say is a light/medium coverage, nice and dewy and build able for areas that need more coverage.
