Due
to the wide use of makeup in fashion industries, makeup is becoming more and
more popular these days. There are makeup artists on Instgram and on YouTube
who do videos and show us the amazing results makeup can give. Some girls and
boys use makeup because they think it is fun to use and it is like an art for
some people; however some people use to cover up any acne and scars. Even
though it is important to embrace your natural beauty and be happy in your own
skin, some people use makeup just as to define their features more. Makeup can
be pretty and all, but some makeup products can be really expensive and hard to
afford for mostly young teenagers. These high end cosmetics are used by makeup
artists and celebrities who usually get them for free. On the other hand drug
store makeup that is underestimated by some people, can give the same results
as high end cosmetics.

High end cosmetics like Chanel,
Tarte, Gerard and Mac are some of the high end makeup companies used by
celebrities and other famous and rich makeup artists. These makeup companies
have products that usually range from about hundreds to thousands of dollars.
For example one Chanel lip gloss can cost you about forty dollars and one
highlighter or foundation from mac can add up to hundred or two hundred
dollars. Usually these high end cosmetics are displayed in really good packages
and in big stores and malls which makes it very eye catching. In addition,
these high end makeup companies hire famous celebrities to make their ads. Recently, Estée Lauder displayed famous model,
Kendal Jenner, as the new face for their new collection.
Drug store cosmetics are makeups
that are found in any store and are much affordable to buy. Not all people who
love makeup can afford high end cosmetics however they can achieve the same
look using drug store dupes. Being a high school or college student, it can be
difficult to spend so much money on makeup and stay in your budget, so it is
important to find something you love in your budget limit. Bh cosmetics is one
of the makeup companies that makes beautiful and pigmented makeups that give a
beautiful finish just like high end cosmetics. One beautiful eye shadow palette
that comes in about 24 colors can be bought for only ten dollars. Another great
and affordable brand for cheaper makeup is elf. Elf cosmetics sell a wide
variety of makeup and dupes for expensive cosmetics. Even though these products
are much cheaper, they do not give you a chalky and faded look. If the right
products are used, then you can get a smooth, glammed and pigmented finish.

Using drug store cosmetics is a great way for people who are in
budget to buy beautiful makeup without stressing over the price of the product.
Due to the rising popularity of drugstore makeup, more and more companies are
starting to make cheaper cosmetics with great finishing.
Zohal, what an informative post this is. As you've probably noticed, I'm not much of a make-up user myself, but I do recognize that this is a huge industry and highly influential for many people. It is nice that you are raising awareness of the fact that it is not necessary to spend large amounts of money to achieve one's desired effects with make-up. I do remember the one time I paid careful attention to cosmetics was for my wedding. My sister-in-law (who is also a make-up artist) took me shopping at the mall for Mac products. I couldn't believe how expensive they were! Now I'm wondering if we might have gotten something just as good for a lesser price at the local drug store.
ReplyDeletewow amazing Zohal, most of the times people think ohhh MAC has the best products!!!!! and they justify the price. In my case I always use less expensive products and think they are good as well. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteZohal very interesting information. I don't use much cosmetic, but if I need to buy now I know where I can buy more cheap.
ReplyDeleteHi Zohal, Your topic gave me more information. I also don't know much cosmetic, but I need to understand about that and share with some else. Thanks Zohal!
ReplyDeleteThank you for those good information, Zohal. I thought drug store cosmetics are not as good as high end cosmetics. Next time, I am not hesitating to go to drug store cosmetics.
