Are back-ups worth it?

Are back-ups worth it?

Generally, not usually for me, so I have learned to resist backing up products, especially color cosmetics that take forever to get through (and probably, literally, forever for me).

What brand do you find most reliable in quality?

What brand do you find most reliable in quality?

Pat McGrath has been pretty stellar between lip and eye products, but the cheek ranges are more limited, and the foundation has had mixed reviews (though it worked well enough for me, it didn’t usurp other favorites). Sydney Grace also comes to mind as there are very few misses within their...
