Stila is owned by a company I forget the name of that bought it when they were going under. Reborn Beauty recently bought the drugstore brand Jane from Estee Lauder. Benefit is owned by Louis Vuitton-Moet Hennesy who also own Dior, Guerlain, Givenchy, Make Up For Ever, and sephora’s brand. P&G also own Anna Sui and Fredric Fekkai, among other house hold brands. I know the company that owns milani also owns Jordana.

Well, for certain products I use High end (ex. Matte eyeshadows, Pot Rouge, Shimmer Bricks- Bobbi Brown, Concealer,- MAC, Dior Unlimited Mascara) and I use NYX Round lip gloss in True Red. I love MAybelline The Colossal Mascara. So it depends on the product. Like I said for certain products I have to use high end and for others once the product is really good I will buy drugstore. I’m 50% snob/ 50% not!LOL

I would have to admit that I’m a total snob, but I don’t like that term. I prefer LOYAL. I stay loyal to MAC… although lately I’ve been cheating with Nars a bit!!

Yes, I am a complete make-up snob, and I’ll fully admit it. I look down on those drugstore brands and don’t ever bother looking. I’m not going to buy what I can’t experiment with first!

Yes, it’s no brainer for me to plop down $19.50 for a MAC pigment but I’m still on the fence about whether or not to buy the Hip pigments. Same w/higher end shadows verses the milani wet/dry ones. Even though they get a lot of good reviews and i’m dying to try them out…I just don’t want to spend 6 bucks on a drugstore brand when I can use that money on the new MAC collections or Stila stuff.

Well, if you look at my makeup case right now it will sure look like it! My case contains almost exclusively MAC and Smashbox, with a few Bare Escentuals products and a Diorshow mascara thrown in the mix

I do, however, have some drugstore stuff… like the Raisin Quartz eyeliner for green eyes that Almay makes. It really does look great with green. And I have some wacky color eyeliners from Milani, etc – those colors I don’t wear enough to spend $$$ on, but like to have for fun looks sometimes. Finally, I’ve got some CoverGirl Lash Exact mascara.

So, I guess I look like a snob, but really, I just love makeup!!!!
