The Best Eyeshadows in the Drugstore

Everyone has their beauty item they're willing to spend the money on: fake lashes, skincare, hair extensions, you name it. And for a lot of girls, they'll say eyeshadow because of the false idea that drugstore eyeshadows just aren't very pigmented. While yes, a lot of drugstore eyeshadows are not only chalky and lack pigment, but also irritating to eyes, there are a few hidden gems that cost half that of a MAC shadow and work so much better. Check out our must haves below and give them a try, we swear you'll love them.
