Do any of you lovelies ever have the, "I want all my makeup to be Highend and only use certain brands" thought? Because I do, and this may sound weird but sometimes I want to just use whatever I like, makeup is makeup, and other times I'm like wanting only certain Highend brands. It's weird, and probably psychological. Anywho, can anyone relate or suggest something to ease my mind?

The only thing I'm strictly high end about is primer and foundation. Mostly because there is no drugstore foundation fair enough for my NC15 (practically NC10) skin. My skin is sensitive so anything I put all over, I'm hesitant about drugstore.
Everything else is a mix though. Wet'n'wild to YSL.

I use mostly Urban Decay for just about everything because I like the brand. I have a few really high end items like Guerlain & Tom Ford lipsticks but they were splurges for me and I really enjoy using a lot of different brands for example NYX makes some great stuff and they are really affordable. I don't think I would want all of the most expensive brand because then it might loose its specialness for me if that makes sense. that being said on some of my wealthier clients I use higher end brands because that's what they like/expect.

Yeah, you make a good point. I agree with the products losing their specialness if you always bought them. I never thought of it that way. Also, with the clients, that makes sense, too. Thanks for you input. :)

I love high-end because I've so much success when it came to pigmentation, long wear and product presentation but I also love my drugstore gems as well. Especially when it comes to mascaras,lip/eye liners and lippies.
