I'm a firm believer that you don't have to spend a lot of money to get high-quality makeup. As a shopping writer who spends all day researching and writing about beauty, skincare, and fashion, I'm something of an expert.
I've tried my fair share of both luxury and drugstore makeup brands. I can tell you firsthand that affordable items can often perform as well as their more expensive counterparts.
On my quest to find the best affordable makeup out there, I stumbled upon the brand Moira Cosmetics while doomscrolling on TikTok and knew that I had to try it.
I was thoroughly impressed.
Almost everything from the beauty brand is under $20 (with tons of $10-and-under options).
I found that many of the products perform similarly to those from presitge counterparts — think affordable setting powder that will keep your face in place all day just like your favorite pro brands, but for a fraction of the cost. Shop colorful liquid and powder blushes that pack as much of a punch as your favorite celeb-branded blush. You'll even discover shimmery eyeshadows that rival the expensive stuff.
If you're looking for a drugstore-priced makeup line that delivers designer-like results, Moira Cosmetics is your girl.
Best of all, I did all of the research for you and selected my favorite stand-out products from the brand's lineup below. All of these products are $15 or less!
The Best Moira Cosmetics Products, According to a Beauty Expert
Shop my picks from Moira Cosemetic's lineup, plus more bestsellers below. Your face and your wallet will thank you!
Dreamlight Highlighter: I love using this product as an inner-corner highlight. It's a great choice if you like highlighters with a sublte sheen and hint of sparkle.
Best for fans of Fenty Beauty's Diamond Bomb All-Over Diamond Veil.
Love Steady Liquid Blush: A drop of this highly pigmented liquid blush goes a long way, which means your getting major bang for your buck. Blend it with your fingers for a seamless, skin-like blend.
Best for fans of Rare Beauty's Soft Pinch Liquid Blush.
Precision Liquid Liner: I'm something of a liquid liner connoisseur and in all my years, I have never come across one as black and juicy as this one. The tip is ultra thin and perfect for crafting sharp, precise winged liner.
Best for fans of Stila's Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner.
Set & Correct Loose Setting Powder: As someone with dry skin, I'm always skeptical about setting powders. But this one brightened, blurred, and set my makeup without turning dry, cakey, or flakey.
Best for fans of Huda Beauty's Easy Bake Loose Setting Powder.
Glow Getter Hydrating Lip Oil: Think of this as a cross between a lip oil and a gloss, which makes it truly unqiue. It can add a glass-like shine and boost of hydration to your lips in one swipe.
Best for fans of Milk Makeup Odyssey Hydrating Lip Oil Gloss
Lucent Cream Shadow: Featuring a sheer wash of color with reflective glitter, this eyeshadow can be worn on it's own or atop a matte shade. It's a one and done kind of product — just one swipe of this will make it look like you put a lot of effort into your look.
Best for fans of Urban Decay's 24/7 Moondust Glitter Eyeshadow in shade Space Cowboy.
