I’m Sleep Deprived, But Look Like a Young Chicken Thanks to My $14 Makeup Duo

A MAKEUP lover has found a way to fake her beauty sleep with a few affordable products.

She swore by an $8 primer and $6 under-eye liner that turned back time overnight.

Reddit user Beautiful-Okra-3346 shared her obsession with a budget-friendly beauty brand that has everything she needs and more.

“[I] must be raving about Catrice,” she wrote in a post. “Ladies, gentlemen, they/them, Catrice is amazing!”

She had finally found the holy grail she had “always needed and always been looking for.”

Her favorite duo was the trick to pretend she had slept all night.

“The green primer takes away my redness so much, I don’t even need foundation,” she said.

“Their under-eye brightener is literally a chef’s kiss. I can literally wake up sleep deprived and look like a young chicken with the brightener and primer!”

If you want to make her glow, you can buy Catrice’s The Corrector Anti-Redness Primer on Amazon for $8.

The brand’s Instant Awake Under Eye Brightener is also available on Amazon for $6.

The Redditor panicked when she saw the results, which totaled just $14. And those weren’t the only bargains she was enjoying.

“I also bought a lip liner, and wow, I think it was four dollars?” she said.

She noted that the eyeliner pairs well with the brand’s lipstick to get the perfect lips.

The original poster couldn’t say enough good things about Catrice.

“I highly recommend this brand,” she said.[It’s] very affordable and good quality.”

And she wasn’t the only one who was a fan of the makeup company.

“They are a German brand and we use it quite a lot in Germany. It is [definitely] “One of the best here,” said one commentator.

“I understand why. The quality is better than at the drugstore [in my opinion]but has a drugstore price tag — even lower than some other [drug store] “brands,” she replied.

Another shared how much they love their plumping lipsticks, saying they “feel so nice when you apply them.”

“Their Power Full Five Balm is so yummy too. My MLBB is Sweet Cherry, but I love Addicting Cassis,” they said.

“The Glam and Doll False Lashes Waterproof Mascara is my absolute favorite,” said a third Redditor.

“It doesn’t break my lashes, doesn’t smudge, and I can easily remove it with an oil-based cleanser/two-phase eye makeup remover.”

They also shared that they’re fans of their nail polishes, including a “gorgeous olive green” that has a “very jelly-like look with one coat, I really like it.”

“The name is 126 Get Slimed. I have been using their skincare for the past four months. I am impressed. I use the hydro supercharged serum with 5% niacinamide and 1% triple hyaluronic acid.”

They said it was the only “budget friendly serum” with less than 10% niacinamide and zero zinc PCA (pyrrolidone carboxylic acid).

“It seems like a dupe for SVR niacinamide serum. My skin is more hydrated with improved hyperpigmentation and acne,” they said.

“I also use the Glow Skin Renewal Toner with 5% PHA, 3% AHA and 15% aloe. It’s really nice when you have other actives in your skin [your] routine. Very gentle but effective.”
