Drug Store Makeup Recommendations for April Ball: Foundation, Powder, Concealer

Charlotte Tilbury is my favourite lasts all day and makes my skin look flawless. However as a cheaper alternative L’Oreal true match foundation is good and I recently bought a Primark one which lasts me during the day for work and is certainly a lot cheaper!
 
I use Estée Lauder double wear- and go over my whole face with a Bobbi brown shimmer brick (in pink quartz shade)
 
Go to BOOTS! Use moisturiser or a face cream, primer then foundation 🙂 if you go into a big boots store for example you can ask the ladies and try some products to see how they suit on your skin. They can also give you a few samples to try 🙂
 
Go to boots and they will do your make up for free. I've done it quite a few times with No7 in there and the ladies were amazing and I loved the way they did my make up xx
 
Not drug store but I absolutely swear by Il Makiage - I have dry skin and eczema and it's the only foundation I use now. I could never find a good match in stores as my skin has a yellowy undertone
 
If you only want it for the event ask for some samples from mac, Lancôme or other counters they give you small pots with a good few uses in and they’ll colour match you as well
 
Estee lauder is amazing they do a free 10 day sample bottle at boots and John lewis too saves pennies, rimmel 25hr lasting finish is good too can get it most places. Benefit blush in dandelion is my fav but I'm pale as sin 😄 clinique lash power mascara. Urban decay eye shadow. Ysl touché eclat concealer.
 
I have a benefit foundation which I love the colour and finish of, but it doesn't last amazingly, and jemma kidd doesn't do makeup any more. I have heard Estee lauder double wear Foundation is one of the best and most long lasting.
I love mac eyeshadow primer and eyeshadow, and nars bronzer. and multistick highlighter.
Benefit has a great selection of blusher, but get the assistant to show you how to wear them, otherwise they can be too much. Benefit eyebrow makeup is also good.. I love maybelline sky high mascara its one of the best out there and under £10. Have a fab day makeup shopping x
 
I use No7 concealer stick and have for years, it’s absolutely the best for covering my under eye circles. I have recently just bought a No7 primer and foundation too (I used to use Estee Lauder double wear but it started making me look older) and I’ve liked the foundation. I’d say Boots, go to No7 and get them to try some stuff on you. It’s really good value, often on offer and generally pretty good. I have a Clarins foundation too. I apply with my fingers because I don’t like it looking heavy xx
 
L'Oréal infallible is amazing, I've tried all sorts from mac to cc cream, I seem to end up trying most of the new trends 🙈 and infallible is the best so far.
 
Estée Lauder double wear foundation is amazing and if you pop into Boots or John Lewis they will colour match your skin perfectly and even give you a free sample, it lasts all day and never looks greasy I use the smoothing primer under it also by @dogbird and it is great for giving an overall smoothness to the skin and minimising pores ☺️ I would definitely try wearing the make up for a couple of days prior to the ball so you can be sure it suits your skin type etc though
 
Nyx born to glow foundation Rimmel tube concealer (perfect match) sleek blusher maybelline sky high mascara revolution eye palette/ bronzer and brow products I have tons and tons of make up .. high end and drugstore and these are some of my faves
