What Do You Prefer??

Do you prefer high end makeup like Mac urban decay makeup forever etc or drugstore makeup like revlon nyx loreal etc. I honestly prefer my low ends then my high end because I feel like on certain products my low end gives me a better finish and last longer then my high end. For example my Mac foundation feels too heavy and nasty when my revlon color stay gives me such a lightweight feel and has amazing coverage. What do you guys prefer??? Would love to hear it;)

I have a lot of both. Foundation/concealer is all high end. No drugstore brand makes a shade fair enough for me. Revlon used to, but they discontinued it :-( mascara too, I'm a Lancôme girl. Everything else is a mix. I bought $25 MUFE eye shadow to go with a $3 wet'n'wild shadow I bought. I top my Nars lipstick with cover girl wet slicks.

MAC is more like middle end, nowhere near high end considering the quality of their products now. But yes, I do prefer high end products nowadays. I'll always stick with drugstore mascara and lip liner and primer (and my powder) if I need something, but other than that, I've yet to find drugstore anything else that satisfies me (foundation, lipstick, eyeshadow especially). That and majority of drugstore brands I'd even bother with test on animals (no, I'm not in the mood to turn another thread that even MENTIONS animal testing into a debate, haha) as well so no thank you. When it comes to higher end things, I always look for sets with good value and whatnot so it'll be really worth my money, even more than drugstore items.

I have a better success rate with high end products (Bobbi Brown, Hourglass, Tom Ford,Laura Mercier) than I do with the lower end lines. Especially when it comes to pigmentation. Now I've swatches some high end stuff that was weak but for the most part the only time make-up gets returned by me if it breaks me out.
