I'm not a makeup person so I use drugstore brands like Maybelline or CoverGirl. However, I think drugstore Barbies suck.

I like drugstore makeup but some ppl get to picky I feel like some (not all) ppl wear it just becuz it's pricey.

Also I hate how drugstore brands keep upping the prices and I may be paranoid but I think they're putting less in too I saw a non drugstore brand that was only 9 dollars more BUT came with twice as much with a better brush I might have to convert

I use what works well for me, for example, I've tried mac studio fix fluid, pro long wear, face and body and studio sculpt ( I know they're all different finishes and coverages but I flit between what I need in a foundation depending in how my skin is) but I wouldn't repurchase any, my reckon colourstay just beats them all. The coverage is great, but is great sheered down with moisturiser, the colour selection is so much better and it lasts like heaven. So why would I spend 20 something on a mediocre product with a good name? Saying that I do like other high end products that work well, benefit boxed blushes, they just look amazing on me compared to other blushers I've tried. So yeah I will spend a lot on a product if it works well.

I don't think there is anything wrong w it!!
I truly believe there is often better products at the drugstore, like mascaras for example. Half my collection is high end, and the other half is drugstore. Not because I can't afford high end, but because I felt the drugstore product was awesome. Both high end and drugstore have the same standard to meet.
There is nothing wrong w drugstore products, and if someone has a problem with that, they obviously haven't tried the good drugstore products.
Both drugstore and high end have there good and bad products. The only difference to me is the price and brand names. :)

I use drug store products and sephora! It gets a little expensive at sephora but you get a lot of product.
Over all; there's nothing wrong with drug store makeup.

I used to only use drugstore makeup now I only use high end makeup and honestly for a lot of products I can't tell a difference in performance. There are drugstore products that are amazing and some that suck just like there are amazing high end products and some that suck. Why would you pay more for something that works just as well? I'm a big fan of elf and maybelline. Just use what works for you. People are way too down on drugstore makeup, I completely agree.

There is nothing wrong with it! Most of my makeup is drugstore because as a student I don't have much money to spend on it - the only high end makeup I own is gifts off my parents. I think it's just personal preference. Some people only use high end because they feel that the formula is better and it's better value for money, just like some people use only drugstore because they don't want to (or can't) spend a fortune on makeup. And then some people are perfectly happy to use a bit of both. I think you can get really good things from drugstore brands, but you can also get amazing high end stuff if you have the money :)

Some times it's not how much something cost but what you can do with it ;)

I like both kinds equally. 😊I think that if you really want to buy something high end, then it should be something you were everyday like foundation or powder. But drugstore makeup works just fine!(:

Makeup is makeup it really doesn't matter were it is from as long as you know how to use it.

Doesn't matter what brand you use as long as you know how to apply it.

To be honest, some "drug store" brands are better than high end!
I have a range of brands in my kit, and some of my most expensive makeup is the makeup I like the least!
as long as its applied well, I don't think it matters :)

Sometimes I feel like people only get high end product just to say they have it. Almost all of my my makeup is drug store except my UD Mariposa palette I got off of Haute Look for $19 for my birthday. I only buy makeup if its on sale or I have a coupon. Sorry for non coupon lovers but I love my coupons. It helps get you more for your money these days. And certain drug stores have amazing sales to use them.

Plus I compare the UD eye shadows with my drug store ones and they are basically the same thing.

Both ends are gd. I us. both ends ppl might think that all high end products are gd, but every brand has its ups and downs. some products are just not worth buying high end products.

Target has great makeup coupons. And the junk mail ads always have makeup coupons. Especially CoverGirl.
