Happy Monday! It’s been awhile since I’ve shared a roundup of my faves, so today I wanted to share with you some new products I’ve been loving, including some new brands!
May Drugstore Beauty Favorites
1. Wet n’ Wild Art in the Streets Eyeshadow Palette– You guys already know how big of a fan I am of bright, fun eyeshadow colors and when I saw this new palette I simply had to pick it up. The orange and yellow shades can create perfect sunset shadow looks, and the blue/green would be great for creating a fun beach look! I’ll also add the pigmentation is good on these shadows, although I always use my NYX eyeshadow primer for added vibrancy. For less than $4, you can’t beat it!
2. Pixi Skintreats Overnight Glow Serum- I’ve really been trying to up my nightly skincare routine lately, and I recently added this to the mix and love it! This glow serum is a lightweight gel and has a nice silky, finish. It actually works it’s magic while you’re sleeping and claims to exfoliate and soothe skin for a brighter complexion. It is also supposed to help with fine lines and sun damage, so definitely a great product to try out! I’ve definitely noticed my skin looks brighter and feels replenished when I wake up each morning, so that’s definitely a plus in my book!
3. Busy Beauty Showerless Shave Gel- In case there’s anybody else out there like me and you sometimes throw a dress on in the morning and proceed to remember you forgot to shave, then this product is a godsend. You simply lather it on, shave like normal, wipe off, and voila your legs are hair-free and silky smooth. I feel like this product would be great for traveling too! I’ve used it twice now and haven’t noticed any sensitivity, which is a biggie for me since I haven’t ever been able to use hair removal products like Nair.
4. NYX Matte Lipstick in Indie Flick – This is my absolute favorite lipstick shade at the moment, and I’ve been wearing it non-stop. I’m actually wearing it in this IG post over here. It’s simply the prettiest coral shade for summertime and the matte finish has great staying power. I love pairing this bright shade with solid clothing colors like white or black for it to really pop!
5. Palladio Cream Stick Luminizers- Okay, so I’ve never been big on cream finishes, but these cream stick luminizers by Palladio have made me change my mind. Ya’ll, these are so pretty and I can’t stop wearing them in my daily routine. I simply apply my makeup like normal and then dab these on my cheeks for the perfect, luminous glow. I’ve been switching back and forth between the shades limelight and stunner, but all are gorgeous shades.
6. Salon Perfect Neon Pop Nailpolish in Life is Blue-ti-ful and Tropical Hideaway– Last but not least I couldn’t not share my new favorite nail polish shades I picked up. Blue-ti-ful is such a fun blue shade and reminds me of the ocean, and if tropical hideaway doesn’t put you in a better mood and make you want to be at the beach, then I don’t know what will. As you can probably tell with a lot of my faves today, I can’t get enough of fun, bright colors for summer!

Thanks for stopping by! – Cara
I always enjoy your favorites! Definitely going to pick up the Pixi serum! It sounds wonderful for my dull and tired skin! Thanks for the recommendation!
Just as a quick update on the serum, I’ve been using it for about a month now and I love it! It gives my skin such a nice glow and helps even out skin tone. I seriously don’t even bother putting on foundation most days here lately. Highly recommend it! 🙂
Thank you for sharing these drugstore beauty finds that you love. For the most part, I am usually super impressed with Wet N Wild’s makeup. I have been meaning to try NYX products too and I might grab a lipstick since lipsticks are my thing. Also the Pixie serum and those luminizers sound so good and a must try.
Welcome by and join my brand-new linkup this week. It just went live!

YASSS! Drug store beauty is the best! I absolutely hate paying high prices for beauty products, especially when many of them work just as well as drug store products. You put together such a good list here. Thanks for the good read!

Agreed! When you can find it for an affordable price, why pay more?! 🙂
I love your drugstore beauty finds. You always find such great products. I need to try that over night serum. Have you done a look yet with the eye shadow? I’d love to see a tutorial on how you use bright colors like that.
Thanks! I’m planning on doing a look very soon! Stay tuned for it on my IG! 🙂

I love their whole glow skincare line!
Such a nice collection of products! I miss those American drugstores so much! I used to live in NYC and have access to everything. Now I’m back in Europe and we don’t even have half the choice 😉 But hey, at least I’m saving some money haha.
Sending love to you from Austria!

Thanks Theresa! Haha yeah maybe I need to move there for a while so I’ll stop purchasing so much! 😉
I’ve been meaning to try pixi for a while now, I just get so stuck in my own skincare routines that I get a little afraid to try something new. I will be adding this to my list thought! 🙂
I’ve been impressed with their whole glow skin line! The drops are my favorite right now! 🙂
I’ve been seeing the Pixi serum on a fair few blogs lately – might have to investigate!

Showerless shave gel!? Is that real life! I need it!!!
Yes! Try it- you’ll love it! 🙂
I find that shopping at the drugstore for beauty products can be a bit overwhelming, shopping for beauty products period can be overwhelming a bit, there are so many options out there! This post is so helpful! I think I’ll definitely have to try the showerless shave gel, that is so me, always on the run!
Glad you found it helpful! I have a whole beauty section with lots of reviews, so be sure and check that out too! 🙂

After applying the pixi serum all week, I’ve noticed I wake up to a brighter complexion each day, which is exciting! With all my struggles with dryness, sometimes my skin can look a bit dull, so I love that about this product.
