Is covergirl and drugstore brands of makeup ok? do they work just as good as the expensive brands?

in my experience they work just as good except for the fact that they may not last as long. for example if you put on covergirl eyeshadow it may not last as long as mac, but u know what that is totally fine cuz in my experice covergirl lasted as long as i wanted.. sooo.. therefore i dont thikn thres much of a dfifernece. but there could be a difference in the way of the material its made of.. what it contains.. like other brands may! be healthier for your face.. idk tho. lol. just get covergirl its fine! and really, the main thing is the way you put teh makeup on your face, the TECHNIQUE, than what brand you use!!Is covergirl and drugstore brands of makeup ok? do they work just as good as the expensive brands?
covergirl's powder foundation is amazing! it stays on all day!!





and Rimmel makes a liquid foundation that stays on for 16 hours!! It is called lasting effects. I actually think it is better than expensive brands. All other liquid foundation melts and sweats off my face instantly, but the foundation that Rimmel makes actually stays!!





and as for mascara, there are some in drugstores that are just for certain colors of eyes to help bring them out. they are amazing!!








I actually love drugstore makeup better than expensive ones.Is covergirl and drugstore brands of makeup ok? do they work just as good as the expensive brands?
It depends on the product, and your skin. For higher end stuff you really do pay for the name. I use a lot of high end products but there are drugstore brands I like so much better. I love loreal telescopic mascara, it's the best mascara I've used in a while, lash blast is pretty good as well! Revlon color stay foundation is actually comparable to MAC studio fix fluid, or makeup forever HD foundation. The only downside to it is that it doesn't have a pump and more germs get into it. Jane has pretty good eyeshadows, I have a few and I'm liking them, they're very smooth and velvet-like. Hmm... I like wet n wild liquid liners, love the fine brush. There illuminating powders are okay too. Hope this helps :D
Nope. And I will probably be the only person to tell you why exactly. When a brand gets a patent for their product they say how much money, time and active ingredients they have put in. This is how the price gets determined. Now the cheap brands are not tested for clinical results and things like that. Look at an end line product like an investment that won't really harm your skin as much as something that is full with chemicals and goes bad after a month.
the expensive brands usually come in more shades and colors depending on what type of make up, and are of better quality.. in eyeshadows, mascara..etc





but many things are just as good to i think


esp. bronzer, concealer and face powders and eyeliner.





l'oreal is a good brand from drugstores.. its from the same maker as the department store brand lancome. maybelline and revlon are good too
I just use anything really...


I dont see the point in going and buying make up thats really expensive but because it will rub off eventually, like the way it says for example lipgloss; 'it will stay on for hours even when you take a drink on for hours' once you touch it it will be gone so i dont buy it i just buy collection 2000 and maybeline :)
Yea they are fine if they work for your. They have some good stuff you just need to look around. Covergirl has nice blushes and lipglosses, maybellene has a nice mascara (fullnsoft) almay has a nice eyeliner, rimmel has nice lipglosses and lipsticks, and nyx has lovely eyeshadows and lipgloss!!!!
More or less, depends on what you want. Drugstore products don't last very long. I've had a problem with the liners and mascara crumbing and getting all over my face.


I absolutly hate that, and it drives me insane to see other people walking around with black flakes under their eyes!!!





Over all, no. They are nowhere near brands like MAC, Ben Nye, ect. But, that doesn't mean that you should go and spend a ton of money on their products.


If you want something that will stay on a long time, get some eyeshadow primmer. Urban Decay's Primer Potion is REALLY popular right now, you can get it at Macy's.





If you want some shadow that will show up well, and stay on, but you don't want to spean a fortune on it:

Costalscents and some AMAZING palletes.


Their 88 pallete is $20, and has every color you could posibly want.


There's a 28 Piece Eye Shadow Neutral Palette for about the same price.


(it's the same, but the amout of product you get is much larger.)





Their brushes are also amazing, and very cheep. I love that store to bits!
Covergirl and Drugstore brands work fine.


It just depends on how you use them and apply them.





Of course, MAC and Sephora products will always be better than drugstore brands, though.. They're much more pigmented.





But it really depends on you and what you like. :]
Drugstore brands are just as good as the expensive ones.But if you have very senitive skin(like mine),some of the more expensive brands carry hypoallergenic make-up.
They don't stay on as long. My skin is quite oily though so I try to use good brands. And for things like eye shadows and lip glosses most drugstore brands don't have a great selection of colours.
covergirl isn't that great, maybelline and rimmel are way better. and if you have sensitive skin use neutrogena.
the cheap ones usually work ok, but the expensive ones are usually made of better stuff that goes on easier and smoother.
yahh covergirl is reallyyy good! i use there lash blast mascara and no joke... my lashes look sooo long! and its much cheaper than a 40$ tube of mascara... u will save alot of money! hope this helps=)
Cheaper brands work just as well, if not better than the name brands.
some clog pores.








and covergirl tests on animalsD:


just saying
