High-End Vs. Budget Friendly



What are some things that have to be high-end for you? What about budget friendly? As for me, I prefer high-end eyeshadows, eyebrow products, lipsticks, mascaras, primers and foundation. Budget friendly: mascaras, some foundation, liners (liquid, gel and pencil) blushes, lip glosses. We get the idea.

I am in no way saying that high end is the best stuff, I have tried some high end foundation (Becca and Estee Lauder) that is not comparable to my L'OREAL True Match. I have a lot of experience with make-up and I know what I like and what works best for me and my face, some things just do not cut it, like eyeshadows. I have tried Maybelline, Revlon, and even E.L.F and none of them are good quality, they are either too sheer, chalky, and they either do not have a good transition color, and sadly MUG shadows do not cut it for me, they are super smooth and pigmented, but I never reach for them, maybe they are the colors I choose, (Beaches and Cream, Creme Brulee, and Peach Smoothie)

As for blushes, I always reach for my E.L.F, they are my favorite and the best part is that they are $3. You can't beat that, they are super pigmented and have a decent color selection, I never find the need to go high-end on them because I have Melba from MAC and it's a close comparison to Tickled Pink (my all time favorite blush)

My brows are the most important thing on my face, they are my signature thing. I have tried just about everything but I will always go back to my Anastasia Beverly Hills Dip Brow Pomade. End of that.

Settings sprays are still up in the air for me since L'OREAL came out with one, and I have yet to review it, but I do use my Urban Decay Oil Control spray that works fine for me, for now.

Eyeliners, I will never spend over $5 for a liner. No way. I do love when Too Faced also include their super creamy liners when you buy certain stuff. That of course I do not mind, but to buy one, no. I don't think they are worth it.
