Gossip Teen

High end beauty is Blair Waldorf’s signature, but for the actress who plays the Gossip Girl Queen Bee, the drugstore is the way to go.

Leighton Meester shared with Stylelist how where she grew up helped shape how she buys her beauty must haves:

“Look, I’m a South Florida girl — if you need mascara, you go to Walgreens,” she said.

The 24 year-old Herbal Essences Brand Ambassador continued:

“One of the joys of my job is being able to try all different products, but if I can spend a lot less on something, I’d rather do that.”

She fessed up to her current beauty craves.

“I’m currently loving those CoverGirl lip stains. The L’Oréal Naturale Mascara is great. And I always pick up cocoa butter. It’s 99 cents! I love it!” said Meester.

Love it!
