I'm wondering what brand everyone is using the most- I'm trying to branch away from mac a bit for various reasons and would like to know what brand you'd like to see me use more of :)

I think seeing more of a drug store brand would be great. Like Revlon, or maybe even l'oreal.

Or how about Avon/mark? They make some great products and are very resonably priced, like a drug store brand.

I dont know if youve already heard of this brand...but its called Youngblood mineral make-up.
Ive been trying out mineral make-up brands for a few years now, and they have some gorgeous long lasting blushes and some really stunning super pigmented eyeshadows. Ive found that the eye shadows stay on for ages and almost never crease even with out a base.
Also, this stuff wont give you break outs (its all talc free), not tested on animals and is free of any chemicals or anything
The best mineral make-up line ive come accross.

I think whatever brands you use, referencing MAC analogs is very useful. Then, no matter what brand you feature, we know what shade might be similar. Colors and textures are sometimes a bit hard to see in a video or photo.

Hmm.... . I think Stila is a good choice, or even Lorac. Something still around the price range of MAC would be a good. I don't really give Lorac a chance because I don't hear much about it, but after I finally did I was pretty happy. They have some great makeup = D

i'm going to vote for nyx, which i know you use pretty regularly anyway but i still think its a great brand. i'd also love to see some looks with the 88 matte palette or the 28 neutral. i know there are tons of videos with those palettes but i like your style and although the palettes aren't a specific brand, a lot of girls have them.
i'll follow you until you love me.

I vote for NYX (and since you sell it we can buy it from wherever we live, which is very convenient), Stila and Urban Decay, especially their regular palettes that everyone can get.

Hey M,

I would really liuke to see Make Up Store (cos we all know it's one of my fav's :) ) and a brand called Yaby. This brand is supposed to be really pigmented and you don't need a lot of it to go a long way.

Lorac or Smashbox- I am really interested in these two but they never get a whole lot of hype.

I would like to see more smashbox. I was also wondering if they have matte colors available. I work at the only store in the whole province that carries the line, the colors we have are all very very frosty.

I would also like to see Lise Watier, I haven't seen any reference to it anywhere on youtube tutorials. Maybe it isnt available or popular in the states?
