Revlon/L'Oreal NARS/MAC MAC

Your favorite drugstore brand? Physician's Formula Your favorite brand to splurge on? Laura Mercier Your favorite brand overall? Too Faced

Drugstore brand is maybelline. Department store brand is mac. Brand to splurge on is urban decay, smashbox and laura mercier.

I have a three way tie for favourite drugstore brands: Revlon, Rimmel and Annabelle Favourite brand to splurge on: Pretty much anything at Sephora... Love Stila and Urban Decay Favourite brand overall: Quo (Shopper's Drug Mart specialty brand only available in Canada)

• Favorite drugstore brand: Tie between Maybelline & L'Oreal for their mascaras... but like Revlon for their Colorstay Liquid eyeliners. • Favorite splurge: Bobbi Brown • Favorite brand overall: MAC

Drugstore Brand: probably GOSH, but I don't think they're in the US.. I do like Mark.(avon's makeup brand) as well, or Rimmel. Splurge: Chanel or Clinique. Overall: I don't really have a major brand that I have many many products from. I can't say no brand has ever let me down either. :)

Drugstore: Maybelline, I suppose? Splurge: UD is my weakness, but I WISH I could splurge on some MUFE. Favorite: Urban Decay, for sure.

Loreal Yves Saint Laurent MAC

Your favorite drugstore brand? Majolica Majorca by Shiseido, KATE by Kanebo or Fasio by Kose Your favorite brand to splurge on? Guerlain *A* Your favorite brand overall? None! All brands have their ups and downs. None really stand out to me yet.

I haven't bought any makeup from a drugstore brand, however, I use Neutrogena for sunblock and Olay as my moisturizer. The product to splurge on is Guerlain. Everything I buy from this brand seems so worth it. My all over favorite brand is Shu Uemura. They have outstanding foundations and a large selection of point makeup.

Favourite drugstore brand: Maybelline, Australis, Almay and DB. Favourite to splurge on: MAC, since MAC is pretty pricey here. Also Lancome, since that is the brand my mum wears. Also, Bodyshop is ok. NYX is another one I always go for. Favourite overall: It's a tie between NYX and Maybelline.

L'Oreal, Dior, ... the last one I'm not sure. I can't say that I have an absolute favorite. I'm still fairly new to the beauty craze. I haven't tried enough products to decide on a fav.

Your favorite drugstore brand? Bourjois Your favorite brand to splurge on? Benefit Your favorite brand overall? M.A.C. (love it, but hate splurging on it)
