The British high street is pretty amazing when it comes to beauty products - endless brands and a constantly stream of new products to quench our love of makeup. Not to mention the high quality!
So to celebrate how much I personally love high street makeup I thought I would share with you my top 15 favourite products under £5. Which was actually quite an easy task!

Barry M Lip Gloss Wands
(£4.49 - 10 shades)
(£4.49 - 10 shades)
Glossy, nicely scented and also pigmented as you go into the brighter shades. These really are the best non-sticky lip glosses I've come across. Absolutely love the Toffee one - actually my favourite ever lip gloss!
Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer
(£4.19 - 4 shades)
Hands down the best full coverage concealer on the high street. I know so many fellow bloggers that love this too. I use this every time I apply makeup on to blemishes and under the eyes. Also the lightest shade is pretty fair and suitable for most pale skin.

MUA Nail Polishes
(£1.00 each)
Much nicer looking after being repackaged recently (like dinky Essie polishes - sneaky!). So many lovely shades in the range to go for with cute names. These also apply well with a nice brush.

Collection 2000 Cream Puff Lip Cream
(£2.99 - 4 shades)
Wearable matte lips in lovely muted shades. They are just perfect and different from all the other lip products on the high street. These feel silky soft on the lips and lightly scented.

Rimmel Stay Matte Powder in Translucent
(£3.99)
I've been using this powder since my teens as it just does the job. Mattifies the skin/t-zone without looking cakey or deepening the colour of your foundation.

Maybelline Colour Tattoos
(£4.99 each - 10 shades)
Ohhh these are so pretty! Great dupes for the MAC Paint Pots as they are a firm cream eyeshadow that are highly pigmented in some amazing metallic and smokey shades. Favourite shades - Pink Gold, Metallic Pomegranate and On and On Bronze.

Sinful Colors Nail Polishes
(£1.99 each)
This brand of nail polishes is just amazing! So many shades to pick, from holiday/summer brights to deep wintry tones and amazing glitters, all with fun names. I've made it my mission
MUA Lip Colour Tints
(£3.00 each - 6 shades)
If you want to get on the lip crayon wagon then go for these. Just as pigmented but sheer and glossy as all the rest but at half the price.

NYC Quick Dry Nail Polishes - especially the glitters!
(£1.99 each)
I own so many NYC nail polishes especially their brights and glitters. Really easy and quick to apply and the formula is just spot on. The recent new glitters really are amazing and cannot be missed at under £2.

Seventeen Solo Eye shadows
(£3.89 - 16 shades)
I feel these are a bit neglected in my makeup collection now as I own so many palettes but these are the most buttery and pigmented single eye shadows on the high street without a doubt. So many amazing shades as well.
Vivo Lipsticks - Matte range and Barely There
(£1.99 each - 5 shades)
Not too keen on the shimmer shades but Barely There which is a cream nude is actually my favourite ever nude lipstick?! The shade is just perfect for my pale skin tone and it just glides on the lips and looks glossy. The new matte range is also really great for the price.
Collection 2000 Shimmer Shades - Blushalicious
(£3.99)
This is practically 5 blushes in one with 4 cubes that you can use separately or all together. Very long lasting on the cheeks and non-shimmery. What more could you want!
Maybelline Baby Lips
(£2.99 each - Choice of 6)
Still pretty new to the UK but fast becoming a favourite of mine, especially the tinted shades - Cherry Me and Peach Kiss. Lightly scented and nourishing to the lips with a good amount of pigmentation.

Sleek Eau La La Liners
(£4.99 each - 20 shades )
(£4.99 each - 20 shades )
Very pigmented, creamy and high end feeling. These come in the standard shades but also so many bright shades as well that you can really be creative with! These also stay put once 'set' and don't budge making them great for nights out or as a staple eyeliner.
Thinking of also doing this style of post for skincare under £5 (maybe more tricky!) and makeup products under £10 as I felt I had to leave out a lot of products that were just over £5.
