Alright, so today, I am going to walk to Lawtons (a Drug Store) if it's nice out. If not, forget it, I'll go on friday!
IF they have the same products as the Lawtons at the Mall I'm going to get:
-Blush
-Eyeliner (gel, liquid and pencil)
-Possibly Eyeshadow...depends on the price
-MAYBE foundation. MAYBE. If I can a good deal.
-Lipgloss/stick
Brands:
L. A. Colors
NYX
Milani
Yeah, they aren't the most 'high end' stuff on the block, but they are definitly worth it since I am not looking for quality.
Looking for quality in low prices.
I will update, review and cunduct a photo op. if it's a GO.
If I have any readers, I bid you good....night...day...where ever you are.

Intro Post
I'd like to start off by saying, hi.
So, Hi!
Someof you might recognise me as ThePaperBagPrincess from many sites (Makeupalley, Twilightsucksv3 on proboards, acne.org, etc)
My thing is drugstore-brand makeup.
I haven't got a job so I really can't afford the big stuff (MAC, Stila, Sephora, Urban Decay...that stuff.)
I'm going to try to find the best-quality products at the best prices and review them.
Today's Item of Choice
L. A. Colors: Liquid Eyeliner (Smudgeproof)
Cost: $1.99
Colours Available: Blue, Black
Packaging: Alright, too much product can come off at once, and the brush is awfully long (you can cut it with a sterilized pair of scissors---I cannot stress the word STERILIZED enough.)
General: Well, it's got the same effect on my eyes as all liquid liners do lately: Irritation. All liquid liners have been hurting my eyes because I began a dosage of Differin (for my acne problem). Avon, CG, and L. A. Colors have all hurt my little peepers and there really isn't a thing I can do. Luckily, the stinging only lasts about 30 seconds and then it's gone. It has a good consistency and after giving the brush a trim, it has great precision and it is in fact SMUDGEPROOF. Not waterproof. It comes off very easily when you wash your face, so invest in a good MU remover (I suggest AVON Moisture Effective Makeup Remover .99 cents!!!!)
Overall rating: 3.7--I would give it a 4 if it weren't for the brush.

I have yet to try the blue, but the next time I get to go shopping, I will.
