THIS is the kind of article I love! I simply can't afford high end products very often and most of my makeup comes from Harmon or Target. I've added most of the bargain products here to my wish list!

As someone who pretty much ONLY shops at the drugstore, I greatly appreciated this article. Officially motivated to try out the milani eyeshadows.
