From time to time, celebrities provide us with some stellar drugstore product recommendations. For example, who can forget when Kendall Jenner attended this year’s Met Gala wearing exclusively drugstore makeup that was all $20 or less? Or, what about the cult-classic $16 bronzer that’s responsible for Sofia Richie’s trademark glow? Ironic as it may seem, sometimes it’s celebs who spot the best budget-friendly products. The latest celebrity to provide us with an affordable product recommendation—not to mention some serious summer makeup inspo—is Hilary Duff. She graces the Summer 2023 cover of Shape Magazine wearing the prettiest aqua blue eyeliner we’ve ever seen. The best part? It’s not a high-end product that will cost you a good chunk of your paycheck. Nope. It’s from one of our favorite affordable makeup brands, only costing $7. Keep scrolling to see which eyeliner it is and find out why the internet can’t stop talking about it.
Here’s the cover in question. Look closely to see Duff’s eyes rimmed in brilliant aqua-blue.
Here’s a close-up, because, duh, we need a close-up. The look was created by celebrity makeup artist, Kelsey Deenihan Fisher, who’s responsible for some of Duff’s most memorable makeup moments. Even though this eyeliner looks like it should cost something substantial, it was actually an eyeliner that costs a mere $7. Keep scrolling to see which one it was.
Fisher used this eyeliner from ColourPop to create the look. It’s a highly-pigmented, cream-gel hybrid that glides on easily without any tugging or pulling. Even though it’s easy to blend after application, it dries down and becomes long-lasting, transfer-proof, and waterproof. In other words, it won’t budge, even after sweating and swimming.
The eyeliner comes in a total of 25 shades, but since this one is so eye-catching, we’re guessing it’s going to sell out first. That’s why we’re adding it to our carts… along with a few other drugstore makeup products that are a good fit for summer.
