Any makeup tips for someone on a small budget?

ok I feel kinda ugly half of the time and I was wondering if nebody has any good makeup tips for me.I dont have loads of money sooo yea my makeup usually doesnt blend with my skin too well and I wear lotion to help but it doesnt help all that much.

WHAT ABOUT MARY KAY???
IT ONLY COSTS 14 DLLS!!!

...I waste all my money on mac but if im low on cash just try maybelline

elf makeup is only $1.00 for anything. They have some really good stuff.

There's a brand called 'Jane' that's sold at Wal-mart. I think they still sell it.

Also, if you don't have blush, use lipstick (same color you're using on your lips).

Instead of liquid foundation, use translucent face powder. It's a lot cheaper and looks natural if you don't apply too heavy. Also you can use it in the place of a concealer, like for around the eyes.

If you don't have liquid eyeliner, use a dark shade of eye shadow. I like to keep a cheap (Dollar Store) thing of eyeshadows with lots of colors, just for the dark browns, etc.
