In this video, I’m sharing my top makeup picks under ₹500—proper budget-friendly and actually useful. I’m focusing on the kind of products I keep reaching for at home: brown lip liners that make any lipstick look more expensive, a jet black matte liner that’s super beginner friendly for wing liner, and lip products that give you that glossy + velvet matte vibe depending on what you’re in the mood for. I also talk about what’s worth stocking up during the Amazon sale, because discounts are nice but performance is everything. I also cover a few real-talk points from my own use: I’m loving a dark brown lip liner (true to the packaging) for that “brown contoured lipstick” look, and I show how some shades work across light to medium skin tones. For eyes, I’m into a proper black, waterproof, smudge-proof liner—easy corners, neat finish. I also share my thoughts on mascara (what works like a high-end one and what I’m not fully impressed by), plus a travel-friendly multipurpose tint you can use as blush and lips. Finally, I mention a makeup fixer (remember: fixer, not prep) and a cleansing oil that’s been working well for my combination skin to remove even waterproof makeup.
