Nice offers for tomorrow -- one card is 12k WUS $50 and the other is 16k WUS $60 .... will go in with both cards and see what happens ....

one SDM is near my work and they are a beauty boutique but the food area is pretty pathetic .... the one closest to home is not a beauty boutique but their food area is well stocked and they have terrific clearance stuff .... last shop they had tons of almay at $5 ... less the $3 coupons so $2 ....

Ok Amira it's not lise watier or stila stuff but I'm not totally convinced it's all "better" .... I was reading a review last week (the Kit?) on top 10 mascaras ... and in among the top 10 was Maybelline's pink one (the bright pink with the green lid) .... that retails for under $10 and goes on sale for $3.99 ... so why would you pay $30-$50 for a label that not any better? But I will never pretend to be a cosmetic pro .... just manage with some mascara and a decent lipstick usually

Dahlia, i can't challenge your post because you are right. Some of the drug stores cosmetics are very good dupes of high end brands but i am helpless. I have started using make up since last year and i started from QUO brand. Now i don't buy QUO anymore, i buy higher end cosmetics and i feel that these brands use better materials in their make up. I feel good in knowing that i bought high end stuff, i know it's stupid sometimes but still i can't go back now. Like a guy who always wants to have the best and most dxpensive car in his garage, i like to have high end make up for me.

And It's almost like other grocery shopping i used to do long before joining SC. I used to buy so much no name brand stuff (grocery) and always thought that they are exactly at par with big brand name stuff but after joining SC, after learning how to buy these higher brand grocery products at lesser price than no name products, i started using big name products in the house. And now i know that these no name/store brand products are not completely at par with big brands. There is always some difference.

And same thing goes when it comes to drug store cosmetics vs high end cosmetics. There is always some difference between the two, no matter if it's a big difference or a small difference.

And now that i know that you are not a big supporter of high end make up products, i believe i won't be getting any "like" from you on my next best sdm shop i am about to post here. Lol.

Ick no that Maybelline stuff is nowhere near comparable to diorshow, or any of the other top rated mascaras on sephora. If you tried it you would see the difference. You can't build up coats of drug store mascara like you can with high end mascara. Drug store mascara flakes off and debris gets in your eyes lol. Worlds of difference.

Anne's post reminded me of one more thing. I always wanted to use eye shadows and other eye make up but i could never wear any make up because my eyes would get watery and itchy and red after putting on the make up. That make up was drug store make up. But i have never had this problem with high end cosmetics. NEVER!


And keep in mind that the next time i am in victoria, i am going to give you some high end make up as presents.

[annedougherty]

Trust sephora reviews over magazine articles when considering makeup purchases I currently love makeupforever's smoky extravagent mascara.

Try logging into your account - the app can be iffy at times.
