My favorite drugstore mascara makes my short lashes look so long – it’s hands-down the best I’ve ever used
A BEAUTY lover was now able to bat her lashes better with an affordable drugstore deal.
She just couldn't believe the eye-popping results - literally.
"Drugstore makeup that's better than high-end," said Melissa Fenves (@melissafenves).
She had found a few beauty favorites along the way including the Milani Gilded Mini Eyeshadow Palette that was making her especially giddy for her glow-up.
"The mattes blend out beautifully and these shimmers are super metallic," she said.
She was super impressed with her $10 find and even showed off the shades of progressively light to dark pink hues in swatches on her arm.
"Honestly one of the best drugstore eyeshadow palettes out there."
The affordable $10 Elf Power Grip Primer was also a staple in her skincare routine.
Melissa rubbed the product on her hand to prove its staying power.
"It is a gripping primer so it really helps lock your makeup in place all day," she said.
For full coverage that covers up dark circles without sinking into fine lines, she suggested the Winky Lux concealer.
She was also awed by how beautifully it blends out.
Her biggest obsession of all however was with the new L'Oreal Panorama mascara.
"This is hands down one of the best mascaras I've ever used. Even from the first time I applied it, it made my lashes look so good," she said.
Melissa, who usually had to go through a lot of trial and error when testing out a new mascara, was still in disbelief over the length of her lashes.
"This one is perfect from the time you open it up. It makes my short lashes look so long and it doesn't flake off throughout the day," she said.
It seemed that her fans were either just as in love with the buy or ready to try it for themselves.
"Panorama is everything!" said one follower.
"All right fine I'll go buy Panorama mascara - I've been seeing it everywhere," said another viewer.
The L'Oreal Panorama mascara sells for $15.99 and is described as offering a thick, fanned-out lash with a clump and smudge-free-resistant formula for up to 24-hour wear.
Shoppers were also raving about the drugstore deal.
"This mascara is amazing. Two coats and my lashes are as long as ever, went out with girlfriends and six hours later my lashes still looked amazing! Will be repurchasing!" wrote one buyer.
"Look I’m a two mascara kind of girl, one for curl and one for smudging," said another purchaser.
"This mascara held my curl and did not smudge one bit! Love it!"

The final find was a ColourPop Sol Face & Body Bronzing Balm that she believed could surpass even the priciest of bronzer buys.
"It has amazing pigmentation and blends out beautifully," she said.
