My makeup is almost all used up right now and I'm going to buy new everything when I go shopping. (eyeliner, foundation, concealer, mascara etc.) I usually buy the more expensive makeup just at the drug store. I was wondering where everyone else buys their makeup from; online, mac, sephora, the drug store? and also which brands do you buy and think are the best?

i seldom buy my make up. most of the time, other people buy it for me. they give it as a present. They came from different places though. I got one from France, from Korea, and here in the Philippines. If i buy one for myself, i usually get it from a brochure of my friend to help her earn a little, too.

Oh, wow your lucky. I wish someone would buy me some makeup! Sometimes I get some on my birthday, rarely though. And it sure doesn't come from different countries.

It’s better to buy good quality make-up than buy cheap and not be able to use it because it’s an inferior product. I usually stick with MAC. Their products are high quality, they work well, come in wonderful ranges and importantly they do not test on animals like L’Oreal and other big companies do. I also love Benefit, especially for the cute, kitschy packaging.

Tell me about it! I’d love to have a MAC shopping spree. It’s so pricey!

I don't go for the super cheap makeup. I've heard a lot of great things about MAC makeup so I think I'm going to try that out, I just can't really afford to buy all my new makeup there.

All products I buy as my makeup are almost from two different sources. Most of them came from department stores.The quality of the products are good relatively and all of them are sure to be original and safe. And others are bought online because sometimes it is more convenient and a bit cheaper.Meanwhile, more choices are afforded to me to choose those can't be easily bought around my surroundings.But by this means I need run a little risk.

Yea department store makeup can be decent, and relatively good. Of course I don't buy the cheapest makeup from random brand names though because those usually suck. But I'd love to know where a good place to buy makeup online would be.

I usually go into the shops to get mine, I've tried buying offline before and for some reason it always feels a bit 'stale' - with going into the stores I get a better peace of mind by knowing that turnover is greater in the stores and therefore there is greater stock rotation and the stock is new and fresher, but that's just me! :)

Hmm that's a good point, I never thought of that. When you bought makeup online where did you get it from?

I oftentimes wear make-up but not unlike before that I wear make-up all the time at work. In a corporate world,it is necessary to wear make-up but it's not with my current job. I usually use lip gloss,eyeliner,blush on and face powder only. and I usually buy these stuff at our department store.

Unlike your circumstance,I use make-up products such as lipstick,eyeliner,or face powder very rarely.I just concentrate more on my skin care.

Thats also something I need to start doing.. I want nice, glowing, clear skin but all the products that claim to do this.. have no effect on my skin at all.

I get mine from the nearest supermarket. I always wear eye liner, blusher, and a lipstick. That's already make up for me. That's what I always use everyday. I feel like I dont need that much make up cause I am stuck in my workplace for more than 8 hours a day and my coworkers dont put on make up so its not necessary to that that here.

I buy most of mine from MAC, except for mascara, when I buy Lancome, which is great. I also get stuff online sometimes, but most of the time I just hit MAC!
