What are some MAC products that are worth the hype.

This also goes to any other brand.

I want to try some expensive stuff and I don't want to fk up.

Sugarpill for really intense, vibrant, beautiful shadows.
Urban Decay's liners are 24/7 as the name implies, and naked foundation is quite nice.
I'm a huge fan of Tarte's blushes.
Too faced or Urban decay for eyeshadow primers.

Occ lip tars and cosmetic glitter. I feel like I'm forgetting something, I'll pop back if I remember!

Thank you!!

I really don't care for MAC honestly. I just thought if people saw mac they would type something lol

I have to say that the tarte foundations are fabulous! amazing coverage and formula. The only thing I own from mac is their studio finish concealer which is okay but not so great. The nars concealer is amazing. laura mercier setting powder is also amazing. for eyeliner bobby brown is the best. for lips I like stila's lip colours they come in a tube like a lip gloss but are very highly pigmented and long lasting.

I'm not a pro but I have had my fair share of make up purchases and brands in my life.
MAC has some nice and unique lip colors; its like a love hate relationship. Because the colors are gorgeous and pigmented but I dnt like the way they feel on my lips. YSL has by far the best lipsticks I have spent money on. Too faced and chanel are also great.
Tartes foundation & concealer are my favorite. Chanel has great application but too much fragrance for my preference. MUFE is lovely as well. I personally didnt like too faced and benefit foundations and concealers; they were returned fairly quickly. MAC made me break out as well as my cousins and sisters.
Eyeshadows I loveeee the too faced palletes, as well as Stila; the colors last all day with primer, literally. Also, lorac is not talked about enough but I think that brand is amazing. My unzipped pallete + the pro pallete are something I can't live without. I recently purchased the new marc jacobs pallete in "vamp" and I just adore the packaging and the colors are very smooth.
Sometimes more expensive makeup isnt necessarily better, don't listen to the hype of certain products because to be honest there's most likely something better out there with more variety.

I forgot blush!! My current blush obsession is kat von d. I'm very picky about my blush so when I find one I like I stick to it. In the past tho I used tarte, chanel, and buxom. I didnt like buxom too much, it wasnt pigmented enough. Tarte has gorgeous colors of blush. And chanel is so pretty and classic.

Good luck & happy shopping!

Thank you all

So glad to hear there is somebody else out there who doesn't think mac is that fantastic, I'll admit I was fairly impressed by their powder, but there foundations smell so bad and look so cakey (maybe thats just my skin)

Diggie G I love the I just put it to get answers lol, I only have one eye shadow by mac and thats cuz I couldn't find that color anywhere else, I never liked mac and started liking it less ( almost hating it) when thats what all the girls where talking about and tried to show off talking about no I don't where that I only use mac -.- girl please your shits probably fake you must buy your shit down town, girls that had mac at least when I was in school had an attitude and thought that they wear the big shit, and ladies no I don't mean every girl that has mac has an attitude or that if your going to buy mac your going to have one don't get it twisted =p , this is just my experience I'm sharing =D.

Too faced glitter glue is awesome for loose shadows and glitter.

I'm always thrilled with pretty much everything I get from Urban Decay. Their eyeshadow, liners, naked skin foundation and primer are my favorites, as well as their new revolution lipsticks and their super saturated lip pencils. I have a few other things from them like their heavy metal glitter liners and I love them as well but I don't use them as much anymore. But they just reformulated/re-released them so I may have to get some more because mine are super old now lol. They still all work though! They've never dried up and I've had them probably since I was 16 or so, and I'm 21 now.
