What brands are most represented in your collection?
No doubt it’s a tie between ColourPop and MAC. I’ve actually been thinking about borderline emptying my drawers of just about everything since I very, VERY rarely revisit in person these days. It used to be MAC but they significantly reduced their launches, whereas ColourPop has been increased for awhile now!
Dior, Chanel and Lancome. I was using Lancome skin care exclusively for as long as I can remember but I suddenly developed a skin reaction to Renergie moisturizer which required two visits to my derm and a prescription for hydrocortizone ointment for about two weeks. I cautiously chose Dior Capture Totale because it has the same firming effect as Renergie and is working great. My other Lancome products…the face cleanser and serum…are still ok on my skin. Otherwise, I stick mostly to those three brands for color cosmetics. They are the best quality IMO.
Fellow Colourpop addict here, too. While I’m not a fan of their ‘basics’ (foundation, powder, mascara etc), their colour products – appropriately enough! – are really fun, good quality and have that “I want to collect them all” vibe. The Super Shock line in particular I’m just crazy for, as I prefer to wear just one shadow on my eyes, and the formula makes it look like you’ve gone to much more trouble than you actually have.
I’d love to see you swatch their Holiday 2022 vault, Feels Like Magic, and I did splurge on their LA themed set in spring.
I know some people find the SSS formula dries out, but they can always be revitalised with a good mixing medium (I use Duraline by Inglot Cosmetics.) It’s pretty much magic, and I’ve even brought back some of the Jelly Much eyeshadows I thought were past repair!
Duraline! What a great product and not many people know about it or about its many uses (adding a drop to foundation before applying it makes it longer wearing and waterproof). I wish you could get it in larger bottles!
MAC, Urban Decay (from the days when they produced good stuff), Dior, Clarins and ABH but actually. most of these brands aren’t putting out enough (or I have too much – no question about that) to interest me much.
MAC
Pat McGrath, Colourpop
Cosmetics: Urban Decay, Tarte, e.l.f., BH Cosmetics, Juvia’s Place.
Skincare: Paula’s Choice and Supergoop.
Can’t believe I forget to add ColourPop!
Wow, this is a hard one as I’m all over the place with brands….Chantecaille or Hourglass for foundation.
Pat McGrath for shadow, lipstick and gloss and some blush and mascara. I’ve just starting with some Rare Beauty and am surprised at how much I’ve been liking them. Tatcha for moisturizers.
MAC, NARS, L’Oréal, Natasha Denona and Pat McGrath
Natasha Denona, Pat McGrath are the two most significant. Everything else is a mashup.
MAC definitely predominates, with Urban Decay a distant second. I like more expensive foundations (Dior, Lancome) but don’t find myself attracted to a lot of their color cosmetics, where MAC has at least one product in most categories that interests me. I wish they wouldn’t discontinue so much of their core collection though!
For me, it’s Charlotte Tilbury and ABH.
MAC, UD (mostly older products), Pat McGrath, Natasha Denona and ColourPop. Also, a decent amount of Nars, Fenty and Viseart, too.
By far, it’s ColourPop – and I routinely declutter items…but there’s always a new release! Natasha Denona and Viseart are a considerable amount of my stash, too.
My stash contains a wide range of brands –
Lipsticks – ColourPop’s Lux Lipstick range, Maybelline and Shiseido – with a couple of MAC’s
Eyeshadows: UD, PMG, Dior, bareMInerals, SG – singles and the Temptalia On the Horizons palette, plus individual palettes from ND, CT, Smashbox and ABH
Foundations: Mostly I use either Flower Beauty or L’Oreal
MAC
Almost everything now is Laura Mercier.
Nars (about the only foundation I use) and Pat Mcgrath (shadow palettes, lipstick and Fetish Eyes mascara.)
Chanel, Lise Watier, Clarins and Dior are the more dominant brands in my collection. I am not sure I could do a full face in any one brand though. I always seem to be missing one product when I try to do it.
MAC, Natasha Denona, Pat McGrath and Tom Ford
MAC, Laura Geller, Nars, Estee Lauder, NYX, Cover Girl.
Chanel, Pat McGrath, Viseart.
It’s definitely ColourPop for me! They’re so affordable that it’s hard not for them to be. Second place would go to NYX because I have a ton of their lipsticks and glosses.
The poor college student in me has an over representation of Elf and Wet N’ Wild products. For staples, I really cannot get enough of their lipsticks and eyeshadows. Although there’s also quite the presence of Rare Beauty here as well, by the Lip Soufflés and Soft Pinch Liquid Blushes by themselves.
The currently low-funds entrepreneur can feel you! That’s how Revolution London’s brand edged up in my beauty purchased the last few years. 😉
Mac for sure everything except their liquid foundations. Pat McGrath has taken over my collection then Natasha Denona a little CT, NARS & Dior.
Pat McGrath, Natasha Denona, Viseart, Charlotte Tilbury and Give Me Glow have the largest presence in my eyeshadow collection. Pat & Natasha for lipstick and lipgloss. Becca & Charlotte for highlighters and UD for eyeliners.
Natasha Denona (eyeshadow), Gucci and YSL (lips), Valentino (foundation), Rare Beauty (blush)
First of all I would love to be the next in line for your “spring cleaning”! But I probably have mostly Colourpop but the are in a separate category for me because I consider them as a collectors item also. So after that it would be indie shadows. I am trying to learn about the different brands and I love the colors, textures and amazing effects that they bring. When I was younger I used to be a Lancôme fan and thankfully now have very nice skin. (And a few antique shadow palettes)!!
Probably Urban Decay, ColourPop, Revlon, and L’Oreal.
MAC for eyeshadow, pencils, contour and blush. Bobbi Brown for foundation, corrector and concealer (but not fond of reformulated sticks), Pat McGrath foundation, Urban Decay eyeliner pencils, Anastasia Beverly Hills for brow products. Also like a few Clinique blushes and lip pencils and love Bare Minerals Complexion Rescue Gel in Birch.
Pat McGrath Labs for sure. I have some Charlotte Tilbury, Natasha Denona and ABH in equal measure, but PML wins on eyeshadows.
For overall outside of just eyeshadow, it’s Patrick Ta.
I have mostly Dior & Colourpop in my collection. The most for eye plaettes would be a tie btween Colourpop & Natasha Denona.
By count, likely Natasha Denona and Revolution London.
