Why do girls get so catty when I bring up expensive makeup brands?

Most of you get so catty towards me and coco chanellllll.





What did we do?Why do girls get so catty when I bring up expensive makeup brands?
I know what you mean! TOTALLY! I think that girls are just jealous that you have better make up and look more gorgeous than they are. They just wish they had the money you have to buy make up like that. But don't worry about it. Just think. You have nice make up and ur gorgeous so theres really no reason 4 haters :)





love, ajWhy do girls get so catty when I bring up expensive makeup brands?
i have no problem with you and coco . how can i have a problem with you and i dont even know you .


and in the other question , it seemed as though you were bragging about how rich you are and how you can afford expensive makeup. That may have not been the intent , but thats the way it came across.





And if you want ppl to like you , and stop jugding you, then either stop bragging about your expensive makeup or , find some other interests that dont require expensive makeup





dueces ...
I've spent well over $3000 on my cosmetics collection, but as I get older, the more I am realizing that it's a waste of money, especially considering that I use few of the products and I have other financial obligations these days.





In my experience as a freelance makeup artist, often times there isn't a whole lot of difference between high end and low end makeup - 90% of it is technique and practice. The most expensive makeup in the world isn't going to make you look like a radiant goddess if you don't know how to apply it properly. So while I like my MAC eye shadows, I'm not too snobby to use Cover Girl mascara either - it just WORKS, and it works well. There's no point in spending more for just a label.





My guess is that your preference for high end items comes across as conspicuous spending, which is rough especially in light of the recent economy. Not everyone has the money to blow on luxuries such as high end makeup. It's kind of like the girl who goes to school with a $400 Coach bag to hold her books, when the $30 Jansport would do the same job just as well -- it's bound to attract some jealousy.
maybe they think expensive make up makes them a better person and prettier. NOT!!!!!!!! heaven forbid you bring up avon or make up you can by at a regular store. you know the old saying its whats on the inside that counts. there is no reason to not look nice but no need to buy 1.00 make up or 100.00 lipstick, its what you like and what works for you. i have about 1000,00 worth of make up, because i like it, and its all different brands.
Maybe they feel your being snobby about it?





I guess it depends.





I think it's rude of them to get mad at you for saying you like chanel, but I guess it would be kind of bitchy on your part if they said they wore maybelline or something, and you were like ';oh, well I only wear HIGH QUALITY make-up like chanel'; in a really stuck-up way.





but yeah, it's stupid that girls get so catty about that kind of stuff and really, it's JUST make-up! Even though I am IN LOVE with make-up, I would never get in a fight with someone because of it or something, lol.
They're somewhat jealous and think that you're bragging about being able to afford more expensive makeup. To be honest, expensive makeup is all I buy. I'm not known to buy Covergirl or Maybelline, etc. You and Coco Chanel didn't do anything but be awesome :) Just ignore them. If you can afford it, get it.
Because dear, you're merely flaunting what you've purchased to the general public. General etiquette is to never tell how much you paid for anything unless you're asked.





It also sounds like you're self absorbed (stuck up\narcissistic) and it's just not the proper thing to do to win friends and influence people.





And instead of spending 350.00 on foundation (which is insane), it would serve the world much better if it was donated to someone in need.






Hahaha, are you serious? For me, it's not jealousy at all. Your answers to people questions are seriously rude, that's why I'm being so 'catty,' you obviously think you're better than people. And the makeup you buy isn't even that expensive, just FYI.





p.s. get over yourself.
I think it's because most people can't afford them. I think it's totally mean of them. I;m not saying that you can only wear expensive stuff, but it is everyone's choice! I mean if you can afford it and stuff then you have a right to use it!
maybe you shouldn't bring it up. i like designer stuff too but i don't talk about my most recent sephora binge when i'm around my cover girl crowd. it makes them feel like i think they're inferior. or that i am stuck up. either way.
Jealousy, they want the brand but they can't afford it





Also you might be saying it as in ';haha I have coco chanel and mac you don't ';
Not everyone has cash to blow on makeup. Most people are spending it on stuff like, I don't know, food, electricity, that kind of thing.
Jealousy maybe? It's all about personal taste...more expensive products often are better quality and last longer...I don't know what's wrong with that!
maybe they think you are bragging


and get jealous





it sounds like u are bragging rite now





but ignore it. some people got money and some dont tell them to get over it
I dont know maybe because they cant afford that but i can i don't see why they would get jealous other than that
Why are you asking this question again???
Their just jealous!
No idea, my makeup bag is worth over $700 (no lie)
jealously and you throwing it in their face
ugh,


they are just jealous of ussssss!
uh......nothing they're just jealous lol like me!!
do u brag huh ??????????
LMAO!!!!!








Funny sh** funny funny funny!





You know how to push people's (girl's) buttons don't you?





Not pushing mine. I feel bad for you ..... been there ... done that. My daddy was rich too and got everything ... chanel, estee lauder, mac ... sephora, nars I used to hit up all the big brands now my make up is much more simple and reasonable in price.





However, I am what they call ';a natural beauty'; I have perfect skin, teeth and am well proportioned, some people call me a doll lol.





But I don't even NEED MAKEUP and it took me 17 years to realize that! (20yrs old now)





Anyways, with all the make up you buy, it's really good when you look inside yourself and accept yourself and stop trying to cover up. Sounds like you got some self-esteem issues as well.








And you obviously must NOT be that PRETTY if you need all that make up. And your ';beauty'; certainly is NOT showing through your personality ... that's for sure.





But once you get in the real world like I did and have to go to college and fend for yourself without daddy's help ... I think you will get the big picture, we all have to at some point.





So enjoy it while it last hun.

What is a good makeup (foundation and powder) that covers well, isn't expensive and doesn't clog my pores?

Hi well i am looking for a good make up that covers well and isn't expensive! i am using the Maybelle's new york age rewind foundation and the L'oreal paris true match powder. I just dont like that the maybellines foundation is very oily and it usually cloges my pores! I want a make up that does the job by covering and blends well isn't expensive and isn't oily!!! please help!!!!!!xoxoWhat is a good makeup (foundation and powder) that covers well, isn't expensive and doesn't clog my pores?
I love the mineral wear foundation (you can get it at your local CVS) It goes on smooth and its light yet does a great job at covering up any imperfections.What is a good makeup (foundation and powder) that covers well, isn't expensive and doesn't clog my pores?
Try Loreal true match foundation along with the powder..works great for me. The powder absorbes the oil so it keeps your skin looking fresh. And I've been using it for a whole year now, my skins in the best condition ever, well I have also been cleansing my skin once a week too.
I would recommend Revlon ColorStay... i use it personally and i love it.. the foundation runs about $11 and the powder around $9 you can purchase it at Wal-Mart..... It leaves your face extra smooth and hides blemishes..... Try it
Try puritycosmetics.co.uk. It is really good!

Do think think there are too many useless/expensive makeup products out there?

i think its stupid how some people have suitcases full of usless makeup! i mean do u REALLY need a fast drying nail poilsh spray?? why not just wait to let your nails dry? and do you NEED an eyebrow pencil/powder/gel? or the stupid little thing you put between your toes when you paint them?http://www.kissandmakeup.tv/2007/07/usef鈥?/a> or a lipstick sealerhttp://www.lipcote.com/, or lip plumping gloss,antiaging creams ect. i could go on for ever! these products are either usless or dont work!! people are spending TONS of money on products dont work or u dont need! dont waste the money or time!Do think think there are too many useless/expensive makeup products out there?
I think all makeup is overpriced. All I need is some coverup eyeliner and mascara and I'm good. Screw the overpriced crap.Do think think there are too many useless/expensive makeup products out there?
I agree...there's just too much beauty stuff out there. Just to buy chapstick is a heck of a choice. I hate buying makeup it takes too long!
Yes I do. And sadly I own lots of them because I am a sucker!
YES!
Yes there are. You'll notice men don't paint themselves. I'm not sure women are more attractive with their face painted.





God bless you foxy females for entertaining men's senses with make-up and perfumes, but if every woman uses it, who get's the benefit???





You are setting a standard of beauty for your whole gender that is unreal.





Trust me. You are beautiful without this costly ';upgrade';.





I always buy black shoes, but you females need a wardrobe full of multi-coloured clothing with many matching pairs of shoes.





Then, as I imagine a little red dress and matching shoes, I take it all back.





Men are so easy!
Yes. I think too much makeup just makes women look like clowns, all painted up for a show. It's sad how so many people do that to themselves to try and bolster low self-esteem.

What is the least expensive and best kind of makeup to use?

natural beautyWhat is the least expensive and best kind of makeup to use?
BARE MINERALS.that is all i can say.bare minerals works really well and it covers up really well.AND the best thing is that its actually good for your face.its just minerals.and it gets rid of your acne and oily skin.its not that expensive.you can buy it at Sephora in the mall.if you know what that is.a whole kit that includes all kind of brushes, powder, blush, and a lot of other things cost aneroid $50.and its really worth it.i hop this helps you!:)


byeWhat is the least expensive and best kind of makeup to use?
You should try Jane cosmetics. They sell them at Rite aid stores. It's really nice makeup and really inexpensive.
alright.. I'm gonna answer this and I'm glad you asked this question...





I've used every single type of makeup that there is at WalMart/Walgreens to BonTon, Macys and even M.A.C and Chanel..


I look for how long a foundation lasts, Covergirl (except the kind with the primer) sucked! the only reason I didn't like CG was because the lightest color they had made me orange.





Revlon is the best makeup to use! it is relatively cheap, I use the Color Stay Combination/Oily skin (do not get the Normal/Dry, I found it to be really bad in coverage after about 2 hours of putting it on even with powder it looked like I was wearing nothing HORRIBLE EXPERIENE! lol) but Revlon is by far the best makeup I have ever used!





(and no I'm not being paid by them to say it lol)
to tell you the truth it is cover girl
Wet N Wild from any drugstore.
Get a good brand name on sale and shop at places like Wal Mart for it. Try a lot of brands until you find what works best for you, for example I love Loreal mascara, but the rest of the make up from Loreal doesn't work well for me. I like Cover Girl and Revlon too, but not the mascara. So, mix and match and you'll find out what you like the best.
I use expensive kinds, I wouldn't know... I reccommend Clinique.


It's not expensive to me, but I guess if you're looking for cheap it would be.
None. They cause cancer. Your skin needs to breathe, putting stuff on your face stops it from breathing. Then you get pimples and have to ask ';whats a good pimple remover'; here. More and more junk gets sold to people and the rate of cancer keeps going up, when will people connect the dots?
cover girl
I used to sell Avon and still buy their makeup. They can go back three books, therefore giving you the lowest price . If you are not satisfied you can send it back. Good luck!!!
Clinique is one of the least expensive department store makeups.





It is owned by the same company as Estee Lauder (Aramis), but it is not as expensive as E.L., and is generally formulated for younger skin.
For foundations and coverups I use cover girl especially....


everything else I use


wet'n'wild, NYC, Bonne Bell, and of course cover girl.


When I want to try out a new color I will buy one of the cheaper brands and if I like it I will look for a similar color in a ';better'; brand.


I find that cheap nail polish tends to chip more..
Covergirl
Covergirl is quite good value. I'm quite partial to Almay too.

  • Good and not too expensive makeup?

    While I like to make my own stuff, I don't have the resources needed to make some of it.


    So what I want:





    Tinted moisturizer


    Concealer


    Mascara


    What companies sell these products at a reasonable price (as I'd be buying my own) that work well? And where can I find them?





    I don't own any concealer or tinted moisturizer, and my mascara has expired so I'm going without. My lashes are dark brown anyway, though. I'm mostly looking for the mascaras that give a kind of feathery look, I don't really like the ones that clump lashes together.





    Thank you,

    I love LOREAL TELESCOPIC mascara it defines each lash to give a clean polished look. I have really short lashes; my eyes look great in this mascara. They have a new black out called Carbon, which has a deeper pigment.Good and not too expensive makeup?
    NYX is really good, and i love it, and its so cheap!








    you can get it for good prices here:

    I just bought an expensive makeup brush from sephora. it was the same style the lady used on me when we were?

    trying out the makeup. when i took the wrapper off, the brush bristles did not come up so they are small and stubby and i cannot use the brush. how can i get the bristles to come up. i'm pretty upset b/c it was expensive and if i cant get the bristles to come up i'm deff. returning it. so anybody know how to get the bristles up and make the brush normal?


    thanks for your time :]I just bought an expensive makeup brush from sephora. it was the same style the lady used on me when we were?
    I think she sold you the wrong brush on accident. The Sephora brushes all look alike and there are a lot of them, and sometimes they end up in the wrong holder at the store. I would take it back and ask for the correct brush, and make sure you unwrap it before you buy it. I just bought an expensive makeup brush from sephora. it was the same style the lady used on me when we were?
    not sure what you mean by ';up'; but you can wet it and reshape the brush like you would when you clean it. it should help
    Try twisting the bottom.
    Maybe you just got a defective brush. I would take it back!

    id dieeee for a set like this!!Bright and non expensive makeup?
    You can buy the first and third ones from Coastalscents.com and click on the left side under palettes. I've never seen them for sale in person. Also check out brands like NYX (sold at ulta and cherryculture.com), L'oreal Hip (most drugstores), Wet N Wild eyeshadow palettes (drugstores), and Ben Nye (serach online, or at some beauty supply/theater/costume stores). Bright and non expensive makeup?
    mmmm..


    well, my computer was being retarded


    and wouldn't let me view the pictures,


    but i do know that Hot Topic has really


    bright colors(:





    so does Claire's.


    Sephora does, although they're a little on the expensive side.





    At regular drug stores they have some really bright eyeshadow and fake eyelashes.


    but the eyeshadow may not be the best quality.





    hope i helped(:
    you can get a palette like that from ulta :http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productD鈥?/a>
