Your friend can enjoy the same lash effect, which can last for hours, by buying it here for $5.30.

The L’Oreal Paris L’Ombre eyeshadow is the best-kept secret for a chic, classy, and irresistible eye makeup. I’ve tried this one for a wedding, and I can tell you this one is the bomb! The texture is incredibly smooth, so it’s easy to apply. L’Oreal sells this for packs of 2 to 6, so your money goes a long way.
6. SHANY All In One Harmony Makeup Kit

A friend who’s just crazy over makeup definitely deserves an equally crazy makeup collection, and there’s only one that comes to mind: Shany All In One Harmony Makeup Kit. It has everything – and I mean everything you’re ever gonna need in a makeup kit. It contains 168 shades of eyeshadows, of which 98 are shimmer, 6 lip glosses, a mirror, a blush brush, 2 lip brushes, 3 blushes, and 7 sponge brushes. And do you know how much all these cost? Only $29.97!
7. Kat Von D Studded Kiss Lipstick

To be honest, I am having a hard time choosing the best Kat Von D lippy because there are plenty of amazing ones. I am crazy about the colors! But the Studded Kiss collection is one of my favorites. It’s matte so it’s long wearing and the color payoff is just–over the moon. The A-Go-Go! is my favorite because it’s actually kind of red, but when you apply it, it somehow makes your lips orange, which is still perfectly okay.
8. Smashbox Try It Kit

Here’s another of the many makeup gifts for friends who are always on the go. The Try It Kit contains an eyeshadow, a mascara, a waterproof eyeliner, a lip gloss, and a foundation primer. While most are travel sizes, you also get one full size and a deluxe travel size. This is selling very fast, so you better get one today for only $32.18.
9. Urban Decay Vice Lipstick

12. Too Faced Milk Chocolate Soleil
