Is the most expensive makeup brands like Lancome, Estee Lauder, and Clinique really better than the drug store

brands or is that just in our heads??Is the most expensive makeup brands like Lancome, Estee Lauder, and Clinique really better than the drug store
some of it (eye liner, powder, liquid foundation) i've found are better than the general drug store stuff. It's got a better feel to it, covers better, and doesn't create skin problems. Things like mascara, I actually like the cheaper stuff (maybelline).


The biggest thing about more expensive brands is that it doesnt contain ';filler'; (stuff thats there just to take up space to make the bottle seem more full).Is the most expensive makeup brands like Lancome, Estee Lauder, and Clinique really better than the drug store
Yes! They use finer quality ingredients and the colour pigments they use in eyeshadows and lipsticks are better.





Obviuously most brands you are paying for the ';name'; as well, but most of the more expensive brands are far better quality.
They are better than what you can buy from the drug store, but it is not worth it until you are much older and have been wearing the same colors for years. The quality goes up quite a bit as the price does, but if you arent 100% sure what looks best on you yet, its best not to try and buy the expensive brands because the drug store ones arent bad at all.





The colors dont really chage that much, but with the price you are buying more color and less filler. The reason why much older women dont look good in cover girl and almay is because there is a lot of glitter and other fillers in their makeup, but when you get expensive makeup it has little to none unless you buy the shiny ones. The gittler they have is actual bits of glitter, not something that is mixed into a powder. Thats why younger girls look really good with cheap makeup.
yes it is. its not way better but it is a little better because the use special kinda of organic ingrideints to make it better!
I think some drug store brands work just as well, but in my opinion, the best is mac
n our heads
From years of trial and error across a wide range of brands....(some more expensive, some less expensive).





I prefer Clinique for sunscreen, powder (compact), and moisturizer. This brand is the only one I've found that doesn't irritate my skin (it's very sensitive).





Lancome for concealer and foundation. The colors match me the best, and the makeup blends well.





Every other type of make-up I use a variety of brands depending on what I see.





Rule of thumb (as with anything) you get what you pay for....
not always....sometimes, drug store brands are just as good...but for coverage and lasting effects, you would do better to buy higher quality and priced products....foundations and powders would be the most important, as they are made with finer ingredients and stay on the skin longer and usually have spf and retinols built in which means they are working for you as well as making you look better.....i find also, that most eye shadows go on better, stay on longer and have better color quality if they are from Lancome and Mac, they just have more pigments...so if you are worried about makeup lasting and looking very professional, buy the better products, otherwise stay in the drug store brands.
You get what you pay for.
Yes. they definitely differ. But again it doesn't mean that all of those brands would suit you. Try buying just one product from one brand to another to see whether it's for you.
yes
no...read the ingrediants on the expensive brands then the store brand if they are the same than the store brand than buy the store brand!!! =)
i have some almay now that i am using and i really think it is as good as the clinique i was using last year
If the truth was known by the general public, some of the cheaper brands are actually made by the top companies, but marketed as generic. That way, they get buyers from both ends of the spectrum: those who can afford the expensive brands and those who have to buy the lower-priced items. So don't be afraid of the lower priced make-up, it may be the exact same brand that poor little Paris uses!
Yes, better quality. Color matching. But you dont need to buy the whole line. Just a good foundation, lipstick, eye shadow and blush.
In all honesty i think all 'popular' make up is kind of not ok ....and i really see no real difference between the ones you buy at the drug stores and the more expensive ones ...however i do see a Huge difference between all of those and organic make up.


Unlike the non organicmake up,the organic make up does not help you get more wrinkles and does not poison your skin with over 150 'toxic' susbances.
they are better!!!
I can definitely tell a difference. I use both store brands and the more expensive kinds....the expensive kinds last longer and don't seem so oily. Plus the more expensive brands will let you test their products before you buy them and make sure the foundations/powders/etc. match your skin before you leave the store. They might cost a little more than say Cover Girl, but at least you don't have orange colored skin.
It depends on how it will works for you girls, you know what?.... when a girl asked me something, which is more effective??? these brands or brands in the drugstore???, I did tell her, i prefer to the drugstore, because it was prescribed by the doctors and if im not mistaken, it is much more cheaper than those.... but it really depends on how would you like the product...
