Do you spend much on buying makeup? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 92/100. dorisday1971 (2010)   ranked 14 out of 1,091 in makeup5 months ago

I use makeup everyday in going to work. I may say that I don't spend too much on it except for my lipstick. My lipstick is so expensive because I have allergic reactions on some brands of lipsticks. I buy hypoallergenic lipsticks only. For my eye shadows, blush on and face powder, it doesn't cost much. So far, my only expensive makeup is my lipstick.

How about you, do you spend much on makeup?

I actually don't wear makeup at all. I tried a couple of times, but I really don't like the feel of it and my husband actually prefers if I don't wear it, so I just go without.:) Every once in a while if I've got some bad acne then I might wear coverup, but most times I just go without. So I guess I don't spend too much at all! LOL.

I'm a woman of Asian blood so makeup really doesn't do much for my face but put colour on it. I actually look better without it so on the rare occasions that I do, it's so little that one can hardly tell.

Hi Phyrre!

You are blessed with beautiful face that you don't need to wear makeup anymore. It's good that you are not spending much on makeup. have a good day.

I also need to makeup everyday. It is because it will make me have more confindence of myself.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that you have such a hard time with makeup and having to resort to a specialty type.

With my daughter and I, we just go to the dollar store and pick up whatever we need from there. Granted, they may not always have what we want but another one would. Is it better or worse? I don't know...I only know their stores but I have found some name brand items there before.

So, I'm able to get everything from an eyelash curler to eyebrow pencils...pretty cool I say.

And now, I must go and scold my 18 month old son for throwing things at me as he's standing on the stairwell.

well, i dont keep shifting brands because am allergic as the same way as you do, however i will not spend that much in make ups... the lipstick which i use comes for around 3-4 months... so no need to worry about it.... same is the case with mascara and eyeliner as well...


myLot reputation of 92/100. dorisday1971 (2010)   ranked 14 out of 1,091 in makeup  5 months ago

Hi Vandhu!

My lipstick last for around 5 months and even if it is expensive, at least I don't buy it much often.

Have a good day and enjoy mylotting.

I don't wear makeup much any more, I used to wear way too much but I'm not as insecure as I used to be. When I do have a bad skin day and am too paranoid not to wear makeup, I use MAC powder and foundation, and my lipstick and eye makeup is BWC (vegan brand). MAC is expensive but as I only have to buy it about once every 6 months thats ok, and BWC isn't expensive at all. I probably spend around £75 a year altogether.


myLot reputation of 92/100. dorisday1971 (2010)   ranked 14 out of 1,091 in makeup  5 months ago

The good thing about makeup is that we don't buy it as often and it's not much issue even if it is quite expensive.

Have a nice day Caragh.

I don't use much make up. I like the natural look.I just use a really good lip-gloss and eyeliner. That is it! Low maintainence huh. lol
So that is all that I ever use and hence don't spend much on it.
But get this, I do like buying lipsticks. Its like a crazy hobby. I don't use them much but I buy them. Call me nuts if you want too. cryLOL


myLot reputation of 99/100. caragh2608 (1011)   ranked 309 out of 1,091 in makeup  5 months ago

Of course! You have to have them in every shade, just in case... you never know, maybe you will use them. Someday. When Hell freezes over. LOL I buy them, change my mind about the colour and give them to my daughter to play dress-up


myLot reputation of 98/100. cbeee3 (844)   ranked 21 out of 1,091 in makeup  5 months ago

ROFL.. Good one caragh! lol.. Just for that I am sending you a Friend request, hope you accept it happy


myLot reputation of 99/100. caragh2608 (1011)   ranked 309 out of 1,091 in makeup  5 months ago

lol I'm terrible, I actually buy lipstick for my daughter now. If I see a really pretty shade but I know it won't suit me, I buy it for her because her colouring is different to mine

no i dont because i seldom use make up. except if i am at the office. i just use little lipstick and blush on. thats just it. i am not really a make up type of person . i rather like it simple and well, clean on the face. my make up is quite expensive. but i guess i wont buy another one soon because i dont even use it that much.

myLot reputation of 92/100. dorisday1971 (2010)   ranked 14 out of 1,091 in makeup  5 months ago

That's the good thing about makeups, we don't easily consume it or buy it more often. We spen money for makeup once a year or two.

Have a nice day.

I love donig make up...but only on parties...or on some special occasions...!
And i spend alot on make up...especially on lipsticks...........i jus love them....and lip gloss or lip balm......but always a bit choosy because there are some brands which dosent suits me too.and the second thing comes the eye liner.and i am crazy for a perfect and mindblowing eye make up.
But yaa i buy them as much i want but i use them very rarely and thus i pass them to mom...!I love buying lipstcks,glaze wear especially the white diamonds,deos but my skin is allergic to all of them so i just buy them but for my mum or my dad........!

No I hardly spend anything on makeup. I learned about a brand of inexpensive products while reading seventeen magazine. It's called eyeslipsface and their website is www.eyeslipsface.com. . Everything you buy from eyeliner to mascara to blush is only one dollar! It is also good quality. I don't really wear makeup that often either so I usually only end up spending about 2-3 dollars a month on makeup which is an extremely low price.


myLot reputation of 92/100. dorisday1971 (2010)   ranked 14 out of 1,091 in makeup  5 months ago

Wow that's interesting. Thanks for sharing the site and I will check if that's available in our place.

Thanks again and welcome to Mylot.

Happy Mylotting.

I hardly wear make-up since I am not up to it most of the time. It makes me itch when I wear make-up so I chose not to wear it everyday. At some cases I do like when I feel like it and even if I wear make-up nobody notices since I wear make-up because of my eye bags. Other than that, there is really no reason for me to wear make-up.


myLot reputation of 92/100. dorisday1971 (2010)   ranked 14 out of 1,091 in makeup  5 months ago

makeup is the best way to hide those eye bags. There are concealers that work best in hiding the eye bags.

Thanks for responding.

Have a nice day.

It really depends on the quality of the makeup. If I am assured that it's worth the price, I don't mind buying it. Besides, a lot of pricey brands offered promises on my skin... but only a few is really worth their being expensive. On the other hand, there are cheap brands who worked actually well. It really helps to try out samples before deciding to buy anything.


myLot reputation of 92/100. dorisday1971 (2010)   ranked 14 out of 1,091 in makeup  5 months ago

Not all expensive makeups are good for our skin. There are very expensive makeup which gives us a lot of pimples and sometimes it irritates our skin.
