In your opinion, is it worth it to get high end makeup from department stores or other places like Sephora, or is the quality of drugstore makeup the same? It must depend on the brands, so which do you think are just as good? I don't want to waste money on makeup, but I don't want it to give me eye infections either.

I spend a lot on [undereye] concealer because Bobbi Brown goes beyond anything I have tried (and has rave reviews) and eyebags are a problem for me. I got a brush from Benefit because my first concealer was purchased there. I also like to splurge on lipcolour because I personally feel there is a difference.
However the rest of my make up comes from drugstores. The best pencil eyeliner I have tried so far is Annabelle and I am satisfied so I stick with it. I don't have a super thick lashes being asian and Maybelline Full n Soft has by far been my favourite mascara so far. I've tried Estee Lauder, Lancome, Benefit, Mac... and I always go back to Maybelline. As revoltaire said above, completely depends on the product for me. |
