Temptalia Asks You – Do you consider yourself brand-loyal?

Date: Friday, July 10th, 2009 Author:

Do you consider yourself brand-loyal? Are you a one-brand kind of beauty buyer? Do you like to try all brands? Do you just stick a few?

.

I used to be brand loyal, but now I find it near impossible! So many great brands and new products to try.

    Loyal??? ummmm not with makeup but defo with skincare and only because I broke out for my infidelity!

  2. Sabrina Saffer says:

    MAC for eyeshadows and lipsticks. For other products I like to try different brands. Especially for foundation.

  3. Angela says:

    You know, I think I used to be Brand loyal, when I first got into make-up, and I actually had money, I used to soley shop Urban Decay.
    Then I decided it was a bit expensive, so UD was my “treat” and Rimmel became my fave. Now, there’s just too much choice out there!
    I have to say my favourites that I will always try out new products are Urban Decay, Mac, Barry M and now GOSH, but I actually own things from almost every brand that’s available to the UK!

    Because of allergies, I never know if something new if not going to harm my skin, my eyelids, my lips. So yes, I’m loyal to a few brands that my skin tolerates.

    I would say i’m not brand loyal .. i go with whatever brand works for me… i thought mac lippies were awesome then i tried some nyx and realise its great too… i alter depending on what shade i want.. i’m always open to trying new brands if they would meet my need…

  6. Karla says:

    For cosmetics, there are a few brands that I keep tabs on, like MAC and NARS, but I’ll try just about anything that looks interesting. As for skincare, I’m a little pickier, and into Boscia and Lush.

  7. Paulien says:

    I like to try everything!

  8. Holly says:

    For makeup, I tend to be MOST loyal to MAC. With other brands, I try whatever catches my eye from them.

  9. I used to be brand loyal as well but I love using other brands :)

  10. gio says:

    I used to be brand loyal too but now I like to try everything!

  11. macfan1966 says:

    Yes, I am brand loyal. I am fortunate enough to have great consultants at MAC, NARS, Clinique and Shiseido. They never force a product on me and I know that the products are good for my skin. I have tried to change to other brands, but it did not work for me. My motto is “if it works, why change?”

  12. claudia says:

    Kind of. I’m basically loyal to MAC, except for foundation and mascara.

  13. AYHM says:

    I am not brand loyal – there are just too many great products out there that are made by different brands. I am a stickler for the best product for me and I really don’t become too concerned with the brand it’s labeled under.

  14. Brandi says:

    Nope

  15. JennXOXO says:

    I’m not brand loyal. I buy from various brands however I have the most makeup from MAC.

  16. Natalie says:

    I am loyal to MAC, but I find I am skipping more and more collections. Now I find myself buying more MUFE and Shu.

  17. Dee says:

    My focus always stays on MAC. They’re the ones I follow for real. Other brands have to catch my eye.

  18. livia says:

    I am A real Lipproduct addict! doesn’t mather what brand :P for eyeshadows and Face Products i only use mostly MAC

  19. Bea says:

    No!! I will try any and everything. I go to what works for me at the time irregardless of who it is. I will admit however (like a previous poster) that my cosmetics are mostly MAC!

  20. Sass says:

    For certain products I am brand loyal, but I love trying out new things of interest to me like eyeshadows from Illamasqua coming to Sephora Manhattan and Sephora.com at the end of the month. Woot! I cannot wait!

  21. Tasha says:

    nope…i’ll try any brand…..my skin copes well overall….

  22. Nicole15 says:

    no, not brand loyal. and not high end loyal either. i have my faves at both ends of the spectrum. if a product is good quality & works for me i don’t care if its from sephora or CVS, i’ll rock it!

  23. Wilcoa says:

    I’ll try any brand but I am definitely loyal to MAC and NARS.

  24. alex says:

    I was brand loyal with Mac at first then some of they collections didnt catch my eye..so i moved on to MUFE , UD, Givenchy and dior …and i change my skincare from mac to LaMer, Boscia and Estee Lauder .

  25. Katya says:

    im loyal 2 mac, but i love other brands also, if i like it i might get it!

  26. Jas says:

    I like to try out all sorts of brands, – i don’t like to limit myself

  27. Kellie says:

    The majority of my makeup is by MAC although I am not opposed to other quality brands. I tend to lean towards MAC because they are a brand I know I can trust. I know they have great quality products and great MUA’s to give me advice. I also know they have an awesome return policy if I don’t like something! I do pick up products by other brands but its usually based off of a recommendation instead of whim.

  28. Purple says:

    I used to be loyal to MAC since 1995, but last year I changed my mind and started to try other brands like NYX, MUFE, Urban Decay, Nars. But I am loyal to MAC lipsticks.

  29. Filipa says:

    I’m most loyal to MAC but i have a few produtcs from Benefit, Cargo, Clinique and specialy mascara from drugstore brands ;)

  30. alyssamae. says:

    I have a variety of brands, but at the moment I’m splurging on MAC- their new collection and packaging are luring me in =( haha

  31. Anitacska says:

    No, I’m a make up whore, lol. :) I am tending towards high end make up nowadays though and have almost completely stopped buying drugstore brands except for a few that are really good like Boots’ own brand 17, GOSH, L’Oreal and Revlon (rarely).

  32. Julie says:

    Haha yes!
    I’m loyal to MAC, but that’s probably because there’s no Sephora in my area–well, until today!
    SQUEAL!
    Sephora’s coming to my mall today :)

  33. Ali says:

    I pretty much like to try anything that catches my eye. If it’s something I’ve never seen before, then I’ll buy it. I mean I have my favorite brands, but that doesn’t keep me from buying from others.

  34. Lauren says:

    I try everything… I love MAC, Clinique, Tarte, NARS, Laura Geller, Merle Norman, Pur Minerals, Smashbox, YSL, Chanel, Laura Mercier, Dior, Spell, Make Up For Ever, Estee Lauder, Lancome, Benefit, Bobbi Brown, Stila, Too Faced, Urban Decay, Cargo, Bare Minerals… you name it, I love them all. I am very loyal to MAC Limited Edition collections, though! I always have to know the scoop about what is coming out next and what I plan on hauling from it! :) But in my opinion, different makeup brands specialize in different things, so I buy what I need from whoever makes it best!

  35. Ruth says:

    Not at all, I love nearly every brand out there, they all have something to offer.

  36. Christy says:

    Generally yes. I stick to mostly MAC, with some L’oreal, NYX, Maybelline, and Victoria’s Secret. I used to only use Neutrogena and Oil of Olay skin care, but I’m trying out the new MAC Lightful collection.

  37. Sandy says:

    The only brands I really trust are MAC, NARS, Stilla & Urban Decay. I might try other brands if something catches my eye, but I tend to stick to those four brands.

  38. Sheila says:

    I am a Dior fan. I love all of their makeup and most of their skincare. I also love their clothes, shoes, bags, etc. LOL

    But if there is something Dior doesn’t have, ie. primers, I would get it from another brand.

  39. Purity says:

    I’m a MAC addict =P

  40. Beautifolly says:

    I am faithful to MAC, but thats because we have great consultants/artists at our store in Burlington! When Im home for the summer I tend to spend less on makeup because they’re not consulting me on what products I should be getting, but I have some drugstore and other brand items that are my HGs and will not let go of! I insist on drugstore mascara because I faithfully throw away the tube after approx 6 weeks (I’ve had issues with my eyes and allergies/infections, so I’m anal about it) and I still LOVE my Chanel black kohl pencil, It stays put on the waterline best for me!

  41. Miss_M says:

    When it comes to skin- and haircare I’m not really brand-loyal. I do have several products that I love and repurchase on a regular basis, but I also like to try new brands or products when I’ve finished something.

    Make-up wise I’m pretty loyal to MAC LE collections. I always end up buying a few things from each collection !!

  42. tess says:

    i tried to stick with mac all the way as far as cosmetics… but nars blush just gives me the colors i can’t get from mac blushes…. and as far as skincare… i’m stuck with clinique due to their hypo-allergenic. i have sensitive skin so i stick to what’s working for me.

  43. Jessika says:

    totally! im a mac girl all the way. but every now and then something new will tickle my pickle!

  44. Katey says:

    I am a MAC addict. The only products I have are MAC. I probably will try some other cosmetics soon.

  45. Jennifer says:

    Somewhat loyal. For foundation, I strictly use MUFE. For eyeshadows, I have products from a wide range of brands, like UD, MAC, lorac, thebalm, and MUFE. Overall, I would say MAC and MUFE are my go to brands.

  46. Rio says:

    Only with certain things, like foundation, moisturizer, and facewash.

  47. Kimmy V says:

    Because of my pro discount and my love for it…its MAC!
    i like others too as well but im loyal to MAC above all others :)
