Makeup-Does anyone NOT use "brand: name makeup?

I see a lot of posts re: Stila, Nars, Mac (Im a user), Laura Mercier, etc.

No one really ever says, I use Covergirl, Maybelline, etc.

ETA: Not a bad thing, just curious.

I love L'oreal Voluminous.

I use Cover Girl marathon mascara. It's the only one that doesn't smudge.

I don't use "brand" name makeup. I love my Revlon, Rimmel, Maybelline & Ulta...

After spending $$ on various big brands, I will only use Maybelline mascara...and my current favorite lipstick is from Rimmel.

I use maybelline mascara
cover girl concealer
loreal products as well

Re: Makeup-Does anyone NOT use "brand: name makeup?

Duh...how could I forget Revlon!!! One of my favorite brands when it comes to foundations, eye shadows and lipstick!

Re: Makeup-Does anyone NOT use "brand: name makeup?

Yes - I use maybelline mascaras and revlon lipsticks/glosses.

The one thing I hate is that you can't try them on and if I am going to buy 2 or 3 "bad" lipsticks - I might as well get one dept store one for the same price and know what I am getting.

Re: Makeup-Does anyone NOT use "brand: name makeup?

My only nn-brand name is Maybelline Lash Discovery- LOVE IT!!!

Re: Makeup-Does anyone NOT use "brand: name makeup?

I mix it up. I some "brand" name and some drugstore. I use Laura Mercier tinted moisterizer and most of my everyday eye shadows are MAC or Smashbox. I use Revlon cream blush and Cover Girl mascara.

Re: Makeup-Does anyone NOT use "brand: name makeup?

I mix it up...I do have some basics from MAC that I bought for my wedding- but I don't wear makeup on a daily basis, so I buy cheap stuff to experiment with.

Also- I'm a mascara addict- so I buy a tube whenever a new product comes out

Re: Makeup-Does anyone NOT use "brand: name makeup?

I use Maybelline Lash Exact and I love it. I also use cover girl eyeliners.

I hat ebuying the other stuff though because you can't test it out, and I usually end up with the wrong color.

Re: Makeup-Does anyone NOT use "brand: name makeup?

I started a thread about "drugstore" brands a while ago. I love Neutrogena makeup.

Re: Makeup-Does anyone NOT use "brand: name makeup?

I love Physicians Formula foundation and bronzer

Re: Makeup-Does anyone NOT use "brand: name makeup?

I use maybelline mascara, revlon eyeshadow and physicians formula bronzer. I have some "brand" name stuff too but most of my make up is drugstore brand.

Re: Makeup-Does anyone NOT use "brand: name makeup?

Honestly, I am not a makeup discriminist. If I see a color that I love, I go for it!

Re: Makeup-Does anyone NOT use "brand: name makeup?

Along with my brand named stuff I do use Maybelline Mascara and a bunch of other drugstore brand products including chapstick.

Re: Makeup-Does anyone NOT use "brand: name makeup?

I use a lot of spehora brand. I used to use drugstore brands, but I like that you can try all the colors at sephora and you cant at like CVS.

I do use cover girl mascara though

Re: Makeup-Does anyone NOT use "brand: name makeup?

I use Ulta and Loreal eye shadows & Maybelline Volume Express mascara

eta: some of my makeup brushes are also from drug stores. I LOVE Sonia Karshuk brushes (sold at Target). I also use no name brand eyebrow brush and Revlon tweezers.

Maybelline mascara, Physicians Formula for bronzing powders and mineral makeup, Covergirl has an awesome eyeshadow $4 that I have been buying for at least 8 years now.

Re: Makeup-Does anyone NOT use "brand: name makeup?

Honestly I use 90 percent Loreal, Cover girl, physicians formula, ETC...I have tried high end brands of everything and nothing wows me.... to me there is very little difference especially with eyeshadow...i do use Laura Mercier and Benefit concealer and my makeup remover is Lancome, but other than that the drug store brands work great for me...

Re: Makeup-Does anyone NOT use "brand: name makeup?

I love anything Neutrogena.
I have also been using Almay's Smart Shade everyday, I really like it.
