Bet you didn't know drugstore makeup could do this

<p>In fashion, we give ourselves free reign to splurge on basics. (Because, you'll totally wear that leather jaket for, like, ever.) But, in beauty, we stock up on basics at the drugstore — those everyday products that get us from point A to point B: No muss, no fuss. And, let's be honest, no pizzazz. </p><p>But, just because your makeup came from the drugstore doesn't mean it has to be basic. In fact, some budget products are the best for experimenting with your look. Because, hey — if you hate the way something turns out, it won't set you back more than a cup of coffee.</p><p>To prove just that, we enlisted the help of Janessa Paré — makeup guru and keeper of a seriously imaginative cosmetics palette. The challenge: Pick five products that cost under $10 each, and whip up seven different looks using just them. Impossible? We thought so, too. But, just ahead, Paré shows us exactly what our drugstore makeup can really do.</p>
