The list goes on...the only question is:

Which is the best?

What brand name do you prefer? Which one is cheapest?
Best for your skin?
Let's compare stores!!

Okay best for skin: Aveeno moisturizer is the only thing I keep constant. Other than that, it doesn't matter what I use as long as I'm using my Clarisonic as well.
For eye products: Urban Decay without a doubt. I'm a total junkie, I hoard their products like a drug. A second runner up would be Kat Von D for eyeshadow and liquid liner (I loooove her tattoo liner).
For lip products: NARS. The absolute best. No matter what.
For concealer: Kat Von D. Nothing covers better.
For powder: MUFE (Elf is the same but I got a free sample of the MUFE and I use it all the time).

Sephora is way better than Mac, the selection is 100x better and the products they carry don't give me a rash like Mac products do
Maybelline is the best drugstore brand, I used to like elf but the more things I tried from other brands the more I realized I hated it.
For best highnend brand there isn't one, every brand has their strong products that people live
So far Makeup forever makes the best (and only) foundation for me and my skin

I agree with Ashley! Honestly, I think that lipsticks are basically the only thing worth buying from MAC and the rest is total crap. I have eyeliner from there that might as well be invisible, it applies so poorly.

Oh and because there are so many good dupes for MAC lipsticks, basically nothing is worth buying from them.

I guess it depends on the person (skin colour, sensitivity...) and the product. Everyone has got great picks! The Brand Debate is officially tied!! Lol :)

Haha was it just Ashley and I arguing then? I mean I have a lot of opinions on specific products, just because I love trying new things :) those are my ultimates though.

For skin :Mac prep+prime or Benefit Porefessional,MUFE HD foundation,Mac desert rose or NARS blush,Benefit highbeam,Mac Sculpting powder and Mac fix+ setting spray!

Eyes: Bobbi Brown or Mac concealer,Urban decay eyeshadows,Urban decay liners,Lancome artliner,Maybelline or Lancome mascara!

Lips : Mac lipsticks (widout a doubt),NARS and L'Oreal Paris!
So I disagree wid Hannah,There are some mac oroducts that are great and some dupes actually don't give the effect Mac does! ;)

To each her own! I guess that personally I haven't acquired a MAC product yet that I've found to be a worthy buy :)

The best cheap brand for lipstick is wet n wild. Nyx has my favorite concealer and rimmel londol has the best kohl eyeliner. Mac has my favorite lipsticks but seohora and Ulta has a better selection of products. So far my favorite eye shadows are from Mac and smashbox. oh and Nars and nyx are my go to brands for blush.

I actually like Wet N Wild as a drugstore brand. Also Maybelline , and maybe Rimmel?

My new favourite brand has been YSL. Never disappointed me with their makeup + skincare products. They do what they claim. :)
For drugstore I'm a fan of bourjois, which owns chanel! They've cheaper chanel "dupes" which are equally lovely :)

^^ I agree! Bourjois has amazing products. I've never been let down by any of my purchases from them. I also really enjoy Rimmel, Almay, Catrice, and Clinique - they're definitely underrated brands!

Drugstore: Maybelline. I feel they have the best eyeshadow, liner, mascara and lip products. However I don't like any of their foundations or powders.

High end: I'm obsessed with Urban Decay. Their eyeshadow is my absolute favorite. And it's definitely one of the best brands for eyeshadow palettes. I also love Kat von D. The eyeshadow palettes are great, but I also love the tattoo concealer and liquid eyeliner. Clinique is another one of my favorites that I feel is extremely underrated. By far the best brand for foundation/powders. The mascara is amazing along with the eyeshadow.

Out of those products my country only sells mac and maybeline. However my favourite all round product for all the questions is Estée Lauder. It's not inexpensive however their make up and skin care ranges work wonders for me which justifies the price.
