What brand dominates in your beauty stash?

Thursday, September 9th, 2010

What brand dominates in your beauty stash? Or are you totally equal opportunity?

MAC dominates my stash, more by the nature of their releases and having this blog – so many collections, gotta cover each and every one, which leads to lots and lots of MAC!

MAC. Good stuff, decent prices, lots of room for play built in. Too many brands give you no tools to get outside the box with. MAC keeps a foot outside that box at all times!

I own makeup by a lot of brands so it's not quite clear which one dominates my stash... But MAC does a good job in my drawer ;-)

MAC, just love that brand! ^_^

I don't own a single MAC product, but that'll probably change after the VV collection next month. Catrice and Lush dominate my stash as I don't have that much money to spend on beauty products.

MAC Cosmetics dominates my beauty stash

MAC.. Makeup Arts Cosmetics FOREVER!! <3

Laura Mercier tops my list. I have a whole box dedicated to the brand. But Chanel is coming in a close second now, all thanks to a growing list of lip shades.

Even though I have bought tons of MAC recently, Lancome and Estee Lauder dominates my collection...primarily because I have friends who sell both!

mark by avon! it's drugstore price, and super great quality! =]

Can't really say, every brand has it's best products so I mostly use only them...still haven't found a brand I use too many of their products, not even MAC.

Hm, it's hard to say. It's probably Mac, Dior or Guerlain. I have loads and loads of Dior eyeshadows, also a lot of Mac and Urban Decay, but not quite as many Guerlain ones, whereas I have lots of Guerlain face products as well as Mac, but not that many Dior ones. Lip products I again have lots of Mac and Guerlain, but hardly any Dior or Urban Decay.

Aromaleigh and Fyrinnae dominate in my loose eye shadow collection. MAC dominates in my pressed. MAC still dominates in my lip collection too.

MAC definately dominates my collection because of all the eyeshadows I have - probably 125 - 150 singles and a couple Quads. But this will sound weird, they are not my favorite brand. They just have such a huge color choice that it dominates my collection. I'm really an Estee Lauder girl.

MAC too...ever since i got addicted to this brand 3 years ago (thanks to Christine/Temptalia's awesome collection info, reviews n swatches) it now comprises 99% of my makeup stash.

Chanel and Nars - always keep coming back to those

all i own is Urban Decay.. i had a bit of smashbox but I gave it all to my sister. she hasn't had to buy makeup in ages. lol.

Definitely Mac, but my MUFE and Nars collections are coming along nicely :)

I love having a lot of different brands, and I do, but I have the most MAC. It's because I go to the Toronto mac warehouse sales, so I pick up a lot of stuff there. I rarely buy m/u at full price.

MAC, but NARS is catching up ;)

Another vote for Urban Decay!! I think about half of my stash is UD, and the rest is divided between MAC, Smashbox, and Stila, with a little bit of Tarte and Too Faced for good measure. Clinique and Philosophy for skin care.

Bare Escentuals. Just because I used to work there.

Urban Decay for eyeshadows and liners, Dior for mascaras, and Laura Mercier and Nars for everything else nearly

Guerlain (65%) my first love and what started my addiction to quality brand makeup I pretty much have everything from that brand from Eyes Shadow, to Lipstick, lipgloss, primer, blush and powders, Dior (20% Mostly Eyes shadow love their quints and lipstick) then goes Lacome, Chanel, NARS, smashbox and MAC I juste started to purchase those brands

Nars and YSL! I love everything about Nars (sheerglow, glosses, eyeshadows, blushes, multiples, etc). YSL..... :)

Revlon, they have the best lipsticks and my most of my makeup are lipsticks, followed by MAC and Urban Decay, which are mostly eyeshadows!!

Mac for sure!!...and a lot of Urban Decay Palettes <3 them!

In the minority here, but Lancome--they just need to get some better pink eyeshadows!

I'd have to say Bobbi Brown. I can't resist every....single....palette.... they release!

MAC and Lancome are probably tied for first, Chanel comes in third

Oh gees...well I pretty much have a little of everything, but am forced to admit that Mac is slowly taking over. It's spreading like some sort of virus.

Like most on this post MAC is prominent in my makeup collection. I also have tons of Urban Decay. UD started my love affair with cosmetics so I'm partial to a lot of their products.

Eyeshadows are all MAC and Lorac but I only buy neutrals nowadays so I'm leaning toward the latter. Aside from eyeshadows, most things I own are NARS or MUFE.

I dont discriminate. I have all kinds of brands.

MAC for sure but I have been loving other brands lately like Bobbi Brown.

Urban Decay for eyes, Bare Essentials for face, eyes, and blush. A total mix for lipglosses!

MAC, by a landslide. I'm trying to diversify... Really! NARS and MUFE are catching up.

1) MAC 2) NARS 3) Laura Mercier. The rest is Urban Decay and Bare Escentuals.
