I'm not particularly fond of almay products they just don't products for my skin type, I really don't like physician's formula they just don't do it for me, cover girl's eyeshadows don't scream amazing and the only thing I really hate from maybelline is there hip duos the really shimmery ones they just suck never get those

COVERGIRL!
All of their face products have a WEIRD smell to them not to mention they break me out like crazy. I really have yet to be happy with a product from them.

Probably covergirl. Now I love their NatureLuxe Foundation but their lipsticks are known to have one of the highest amounts of lead, and there is no safe amount of lead so the fact that theirs is the highest says it all.

Covergirl, except for the Lash Blast mascara. Also about 90% of the products I've tried by Maybelline were horrible as well. But the #1 brand I hate the most is ELF. Their products are super cheap, you get what you pay for. Although I do love their Studio Line brushes, and the Complexion Perfection powder...but everything else by them I've tried is just average or flat out CRAP.

I hate pretty much all grocery store brands...l'oreal, rimmel, CG...etc. but I hate hate HATE NYX. It's so cheap all around

Covergirl, Maybelline, Physician's Formula-- I dislike them collectively. They all have disappointed me with product after product of horrible quality, and maybe have one hit out of several misses. My favorite drugstore brand has to be Revlon, hands down.

I actually really like bh cosmetics...for what it is. I have the ultra shimmer palette, cool shimmer palette, 120 #1 and 120 #3. they are all great palettes for cheapy type makeups. I would recommend them to anyone on a budget....their mattes aren't amazing but you have wet n wild to make up for that and their shimmers are GORG.

I hate most of rimmel's stuff but some of their lipsticks and glosses are wonderful. defintiely hit and miss but I check beauty blogs usually before I buy. Nyx has some really decent eyeliners as well.

I've been quite disappointed by NYX, considering how many beauty gurus use them. I suppose most drugstore products are kind of like playing the lottery... you win some, you lose some. Although I have had good luck with Elf so far, I'm not nuts about the essential line lipsticks, I hate their concealer (but that was a gift, so...) and loathe the Studio spf 40 loose powder because IT'S RED. LIKE, BRICK RED.
I love the Elf Eye Elements in Dusk, Mocha and Moondust, they're so vavavoom.

I dislike bh cosmetics (and all those other brands that get their stuff from China/eBay) so much, haha. The eyeshadows... pigmentation is crap to me. I hate the texture so much. Such a pain in the butt to work with. I'd rather spend 17$ on a Urban Decay eyeshadow single than buy another bh cosmetics palette. I would only use mine for Halloween (like I did in my profile photo).

I can say what I find is the most BORING brand ever and that would have to be MAC. I'm so over it. MAC this MAC that etc etc etc. I cannot, however, deny they are amazing. I'm just sick of seeing the same boring black packaging :( Sorry for the rant.

I agree w/you samantha C.

MAC has gotten very boring, haha. It's not even the black packaging that bores me. It's just the fact that they keep coming out with these collections, even more than one a month, and it's just too much. You do not need so many collections in a year. You just don't.

MAC ships out so many collections that I feel like the quality suffers. I remember being so excited for the Heatherette collection and returning the eyeshadow palette I got because the pigmentation was terrible. Make Up For Ever has become my favorite artistry brand.

You're right about too many collections. I think they have amazing core cult products but some of the stuff is a bit tacky, just think about that collection that came out this Christmas!! Awful. I can't remember the name.. Anyone?

YEAH I THINK THAT MAC FOUNDATION ( STUDIO FIX ) HAS BECOME A DIFFERENT FORMULA B/C ITS BRAKING ME OUT LATELY AND I USED THE SAME BRUSH AND THIS BRUSH I BEEN USING IT SINCE I 1ST BOUGHT MY 1ST FOUNDATION OF MAC SO I DNT THINK ITS THE BRUSH  

I honestly think that every brand has at least one good thing out of their collection. There is, however a brand I don't ever care for. It's "The Color Workshop" You know those little cheap palettes that you get people for Christmas at Wal-mart or Target every year? They are good for kid's play makeup or people just starting out on makeup, but not great for everyday or dramatic use. This is just my opinion though.

I havent tried much from Covergirl, but i have to say i absolutely love their lipsticks! But i guess thats just me. Also you should check out Coastal Scents! They're great!

Almay is utter crap to me. They have drab colors and lackluster performance. Working with clients, most of them need products that will stand up to the heat of studio lights and/or sweat and Almay does neither. I can find better neutrals (which is really all they offer) with Wet 'n Wild that lasts 10 times better and at a fraction of the cost.
