Drug store makeup VS brands

I have been testing this out for so long, because I wanted to save money on makeup! Well, lipstick now is about 10-12 dollars at the drug store and eye shadows are 7.99 (about that.) Ok so you save a few bucks! but as a person who has worked for many makeup companies, you have to understand that the pigmant in brands such as Nars, Mac, Makeup Forver is like ten times stronger and makes you look like you walked off the runway (even if you suck at makeup).  The best foundation is makeup forever by farrrrr but it is really pricey! The best bang for your buck in the makeup department is Mac.  But if you want more then one eye color be sure to check out sephora's kits, they usually have really good deals on smokey eye kits etc.  Mac by far has great lipstick and its 14 dollars which is not much diff from the drug store! Be sure that when you get a kit that you get a base color, a dark med and light color to make the perfect eye, and on days that you dont wanna go all out you can throw on the med and base color to make a bussiness casual eye.  If you wanna have fun with eye colors Milani (ghetto drug store brand) has really fun cheap colors but also maC has really fun colors for $14.  But as Nik Richie of thedirty.com says "no mac forcefields".  please girls remember this even if its written on your grave stone, light lips dark eyes, dark lips light eyes!!!! live and die by that rule!!! hahhaa xoxo natalie!
