Summary

Drugstore beauties, rejoice! This week’s #DamnGood reccos are all under $20, and trust us, they’re just as good as their luxury counterparts. Hear all about our latest economical beauty finds, from the long-lasting lip tints that are currently driving makeup sales to a haircare “Wirkin” (that’s the Walmart Birkin) that’s as designer-y as the salon priced stuff. With this kind of #girlmath, you can afford to buy twice as much!?

Plus, you’ll discover:

The “Raisin” drugstore lip tint that was revived from the beauty graveyard, and is even more universally flattering than Clinique Black Honey, according to Carlene
Jill puts a questionable “plumping lip liner” to the test
An anti-humidity rain slicker for your hair that keeps hair smooth for days – at a fraction of the price of the original wow-worthy innovation
The minty overnight lip mask that’s mercifully in a tube instead of a tub – and sold out the first time it was released (carts at the ready!)
A tropics-inspired cashmere body cream that’s as big of a hit with alpha TikTokers as the best-selling Sephora version
The budget-friendly body serums bringing face care active ingredients to the rest of your body
#ICYMI CeraVe launched haircare, and we’ve got your review
