Here's What's New At The Drugstore

Y'all, there have been some really GOOD releases from the drugstore lately! I got to try all of these new releases and can't wait to share you'll want and what to skip. Go ahead and get your Notes app open, take a screenshot, get out the pen and paper (me), or whatever ya need to get a list started. Since there's so much, I'll keep the info brief, but let me know if you'd like more info on something specific and I'll add it to this post!

Pixi By Petra
--Target and online--
-H20 Skindrink--Gel moisturizer that smoothes skin and hydrates, $22

-24k Eye Elixir--Cooling rollerball that smells like cucumber and raspberry that refreshes tired under eyes, $22

-Eye Zone Brighten--Illuminating eye gel that didn't really do anything for me, so I would skip, $14

-Glow Tonic To-Go--Obsessed with the Glow Tonic toner? Here it is in convenient pad form. YES! $18

-Hydrating Milky Mist--Rejuvenator and hydrator for skin and/or makeup, $15

-Black Lacquer Lash Primer-- Use before mascara as a base coat, after mascara to set, or by itself for a natural tinted look, $15

-Lower Lash Mascara--Does it what it says, and gets those lower lashes. *I was thinking of doing a lower lash mascara comparison, if you're interested* $11

-Lengthy Fiber Mascara--Straight up haven't tried this since my eyes, no matter how gentle the product claims, don't do well with fibers, but wanted to share this for those interested, $16


-Pixi Multibalm--Use these on lips and cheeks--very natural to pigmented--just choose the shade for you! $12

-Lift Lip Max--Define and plump lips with these sheer to your-lips-but-better shades. They're great for a natural look but didn't really plump my lips. Not sticky. $14

Max Factor
--Target, Walgreens, online--


This name means a lot to me, since I'm a beauty historian. It invokes old Hollywood and is a brand that is still sold internationally. It is now coming back to the U.S. for a limited time with an exclusive capsule collection including Masterpiece MAX Mascara, Masterpiece High Precision Liquid Eye Liner and two dynamic Max Factor Lipstick shades.

Max Factor is the original master of glamour and now, together with legendary Creative Design Director Pat McGrath, the brand will deliver an edit of essential products designed for a modern take on a classic glamour look: the sexy cat eye paired with a nude lip.

If you use Covergirl, you will be familiar with these products, albeit different names/packaging, and I love the gold packaging. $9.99 each for liner and mascara and $7.49 for lipsticks.

Maybelline
--Drugstores, online--

-Color Tattoo Eye Chrome--Metallic pigmented liquid shadows that dry quickly, $9.99

Here are swatches. Love these, and I tend to wear the lighter shades, but these are fun to play with and great for fall. They last!

-Lip Color Palette--For those who want several colors but not take up a lot of space, $13.99. I thought these were fine and loved them for travel

-FaceStudio Master Contour & Highlight V-Shape Duo Stick--One side is highlight, one side is contour--I tried to show that with the first two shades in the pic above. These are best for dry skin and make c&h easy, but they don't last all day unless you set with powder, $9.99

Physicians Formula
-I had to show this in the packaging because it's so sparkly, y'all!
-Drugstores, online--

--Super BB #InstaReady--SPF 30, comes in 2 shades, very light coverage, normal up to combo would like this, $14.99

Skipping the next two products, as they are in the pic down below.

--Super BB #InstaReady Filter Trio BB Powder SPF 30 comes with three powders:

#NudeFilter: sheer, translucent finishing powder captures and diffuses light delivering a soft nude glow
#HealthyGlow: blends warm and cool pigments that soften and diffuse light, instantly brightening complexion
#Sunset: universally flattering powder, blurs imperfections and enhances overall complexion with a subtle warmth, $14.99 but not very pigmented

--Super BB #InstaReady Filter BB Bronzer SPF 30--#SunkissedGlow: Physicians Formula Super BB #InstaReady Filter BB Bronzer SPF 30 is an ultra-lightweight, multi-colored bronzer that delivers a multi-dimensional glow that captures, diffuses and softens the reflection of light on your skin for the ultimate sunkissed glow. $14.99

--Super BB #InstaReady Contour Trio BB Stick SPF 30 in Bronze Trio and Blush Trio--I thought these would be hard to use, but they are great for beginners. $14.99

  17. I think drug store make up is picking up its game.

    Love the contouring/highlight sticks.

  23. Love love love me the Pixi Hydrating Milky mist! I recently heard their primer is really good too and I've been waiting for Target to put their stuff on sale so I can snag a few goodies. (; Man, I remember back in the day when Max Factor used to be sold at Walmart. I think I was in middle school? Then they went away and I was just there over the weekend and they are back!

  27. Oh I love Pixi products!! I had no idea they had glow tonic pads. I so need them. I love Glow Tonic, it's so fab. You always find the best products.

    ReplyDelete
  28. The Pixi eye roller ball sounds amazing. I've always heard such great things about the Glow Tonic, but I've never tried it. I would love to see a lower lash comparison. I've tried a few, but never found any that blow me away. I've been loving the Color Tattoo Eye Chromes. I wanted to try the Contour & Highlight stick, but I think I'll pass now.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Holy moly these are a lot of products! I really want to try a lower lash mascara, I don't normally use mascara in my lower lash as its just too messy! The 24k Eye Elixir also sounds AH-mazing!

  37. I definitely need to check out some Pixie products! I've heard nothing but good things about it, and they're so reasonably priced too!

  38. The Pixi product line at Target has been my favorite recently to test out. I use their rose oil at night and my face feels incredibly soft and hydrated in the morning. Looking forward to testing out more of their products per your recommendation.

  39. You'll appreciate this story, Elle.

    My 11-year-old asked me last night if I could go to the car and get makeup she left in there. "It's mascara, dad," she said. "You know, it's in a pink tube." I know what mascara is.

    So in the car, I also found what I think is foundation. Maybe blush. It's a white square of chalky stuff. So I come back in the house holding it out to her, with a smile on my face.

    She's utterly disappointed that I've missed the mark - until I pull the mascara out of my pocket. Funny, she didn't see the humor in it that I did!

  40. Oh I like those colour tattoo shades! I'll need to see if we have them here too in Australia - we do have Maybelline so we might do! :)

    and max factor! wow. throwing it way back.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Lots of good things happening at the drugstore! I'm excited to see Max Factor back in the states. I may have to get the items just on the nostalgia alone!

    ReplyDelete
  46. Being on a no-buy for the entire year makes reading this blog post very hard lol. All those Pixi products look amazing, and I had no idea that Max Factor is back for a limited time!
