    Default High End vs Drugstore Makeup?

    Kepikiran to go back to the classic debate between anything drugstore vs high end..
    Menurut kalian, item apa yang harus dari high end brands, dan apa yang bisa dari drugstore?

    Kalo mayoritas review yang ada bilang splurge on foundations, atau save on mascara karena akan cepat dibuang. Yet in my opinion, the formula of certain high-end waterproof mascaras tend to be less harsh on your lashes compared to their drugstore counterparts.
    What about foundations, lipsticks, blushes and other eye makeups?

    What's your take? Hidden Content


    Just a little guide:
    Drugstore: WnW, CG, NYX, Loreal, Revlon (?), Bourjois (?) etc.
    Mid-end: Estee Lauder, Elizabeth Arden, Clarins, Clinique, Benefit, MAC, Make Up For Ever, Nars, Urban Decay, Too Faced, Tarte, The Balm, Shiseido, Anna Sui, Shu Uemura, etc.
    High-end: designer brands such as Dior, Guerlain, Armani, YSL, Chanel, etc.

    Note: Di negara asalnya Bourjois tergolong drugstore sih, meski di Indo mahal Hidden Content

    eyeshadow ga pernah dari drugstore, paling dari middle-end brand ya. it's simply because of the packaging! kalo drugstore ga ada yg palettenya lucu. too faced and STILA are my fav brands for eyeshadow.

    buat base jg dari high-end sama middle-end. pernah coba m*n*st*t yg katanya dupe smashbox primer ya, but they are way too different, at least for me. m*n*st*t just didn't work on my oily face. kesamaan tekstur mungkin iya, tapi formula beda (kalo menurut eke).
    foundie jg aku pake Lancôme punya. ini foundie paling cocok sama aku. sebelumnya ini jg high-end brand. bukannya ga mau pake produk drugstore, tapi kalo udah nemu foundie yg cocok biasanya aku ga bakal berpaling hehe. trial and error foundie jg bikin muka beruntusan sama jerawat, jd buat yg satu ini mungkin bakal stop pencariannya, biarpun sebenernya pengen coba Loreal Magic Nude Liquid Powder.

    mascara udah nyoba dari yg high-end sampe yg drugstore. IMHO, high-end brand doesn't mean the best jg sih. Chanel and Benefit were fail products for me. kembali lagi pada masing2 orang kali ta kalo ini. udah coba Chanel, Lancôme, Estée Lauder, Bobbi Brown, Too Faced, Benefit, MAYBELLINE. masih ada lagi kayaknya tapi lupa. so far, yg paling aku suka Too Faced sama Lancôme. cuma krn sayang 3 bulan jg harus diganti ya stock jg buat MAYBELLINE hehehe, 2 brand itu belinya kalo ada sale atau beli travel size aja kalo ada, ga bakal abis jg satu tube kalo akuuu. maap kepanjangan.

    Drugstore eyeshadow packagingnya cenderung fragile dan plastic doang ya.. Aku belum pernah coba juga sih, hehehe.

    Kebetulan kemarin baru coba foundie drugstore, oke sih, tapi the smell was suffocating Hidden Content Mama aku juga setia sama Lancome karena udah cocok.

    Maskara dulunya aku pakai Anna Sui sama Lancome sih, sebelum beralih ke Maybelline. Staying power oke banget tapi pas ngehapus bisa rontok 2-3 helai..

    Kalo lipstik, km gimana? Hidden Content

    oh iya ketinggalan, padahal beli mulu. kalo lipstick sih semua 'kasta' hehehe
    here are my fav ones;
    (high-end) Burberry Lip Velvet
    (middle-end) Lime Crime Velvetine
    (drugstore) Wet n Wild

    satu lagi untuk blush, prefer from middle-end brand just like eyeshadow.

    eh baru notice baca postmu. aku jg rontok kalo abis pake MAYBELLINE. mungkin jg krn cara bersihinnya. soalnya kadang kalo pake mascara MAYBELLINE suka lebay apply berapa layer.

    Sepertinya untuk lipstik sekarang kualitasnya udah merata yah? Hehehe inget pertama kali cobain NYX bisa glide on smoothly, sementara nyokap dulu komentarin lipstik R*vlon "waxy dan ga nempel di bibir".

    Wah sama Hidden Content Aku sih ga sampai beberapa layer, cuma dibersihin gimanapun ada aja yang rontok. Removernya udah pake Bi Facil, di tepok-tepok doang dan gak ditarik, tapi masih rontok aja.. Makanya jadi ngebandingin dulu pake Hypnose Waterproof ga rontok, hehehe.

    I think lebih baik splurge on eyeshadow ya..
    tried drugstore eyeshadow, tapi jelek banget ga ada yg keluar warnanya and mostly powdery banget.

    Kalo foundie, i prefer high end ones, soalnya gatau kenapa kalo di aku lebih bagus finish nya dan lebih long lasting daripada drugstore ones. But i don't mind both.

    Kalo mascara, since I rarely used them, I prefer drugstore ones. maybelline is sufficient sih hehe lagi nyoba yg rocket ini ga seharsh yang lain kayaknya

    Sama kayak @Hidden Content ...foundie prefer yg high end,but I dont mind kakau ada brand drugstore yg bagus spt cover girl atau make over..
    Loose/compact powder prefer yg high end
    Eye shadow seimbang antara yg high end sama drugstore...as long itu pigmented,minim fall out dan awet
    Mascara selalu pakai yg drugstore,ga tau brasa sayang aja kalo beli yg high end hehe..
    Eyeliner mayoritas drugstore walau ada juga yg high end
    Blush juga mayoritas drugstore
    Lipstick pun seimbang ada yg high end ada yg drugstore....
    Skincare pakainya produk2 natural yg notabene masuk kategori high end karena harganya termasuk mahal juga.

    Kalau dulu aku seneng pakai yang murah meriah, atau barang yg lucu kemasannya dan murah lsg dibeli. Skarang mau drugstore atau high end brand sblm aku beli cek2 reviewnya dl baru aku bs putusin pilih yg high end atau dupenya.

    Skincare aku pasti pilih high end, karena pengalaman jaman remaja dl pake drugstore malah bikin breakout walau cuma facial wash huhu.

    Foundation lebih seneng sama high end product, di aku sensitif suka g cocok yg drugstore, meski ada yg bagus jg kayak loreal true match powder foundation tp skg udah dc dan malah udh settle sm merk2 high end.

    Bedak tabur aku seneng pake drugstore maupun high end. Baru beberapa bulan ini ganti ke hi end dr drugstore sama2 nyaman pakenya. Trgantung aku butuh hi coverage atau ga dr bedaknya. So far bedak yg ku punya palladio dan chanel.

    Bedak compact aku g bgt suka tp sejak kenal guerlain meteorites bubar jalan deh jd seneng bgt, aku kayaknya selain meteorites g lirik2 lg soalnya yang bentuk pan padat suka bikin komedo. Jd stay away bay2..

    Lipstik g pilih2 asal warnanya oke dan ga bikin muka kucel atau bibir kering aku go ahead aja apapun merknya.

    Primer tergantung review produk. Ada beberapa yg aku suka bgt dr drugstore krn dupe original yg ternyata ga cocok di aku. Tp jg ad yg beda formula tp cm aku bs temuin di hi end.

    eyeshadow seneng yg hi end. Pigmentasi, tahan lama, dan warna2nya duh selalu bikin jatuh hati serta dengan kemasannya hehe.

    Maskara selalu pilih yg drugstore. Secara aku lebih seneng pake falsies jd mau maskara mahal kok sama aja ga begitu ngaruh haha.

    Eyeliner lebih seneng merk drugstore. Ga tau di aku yg hi end malah bleberan plus mahal. Rugi ah.

    Blush on akhir2 ini memburu hi end dengan harga sale hahaha. Kepuasan dpt harga lebih miring tapi barang hi end dan rata2 emang bagus bgt warnanya dan tahan lama.

    Untuk skincare/makeup item yg umurnya pendek ato dipakenya agak boros (kayak maskara, sunblock, makeup remover), gw pilih drugstore aja biar gak berat di kantong. Apalagi udah nemu yg cocok.
    Kalo yg lain2nya, gw gak keberatan bayar lebih untuk mid-level ato high-end brands.

    @Hidden Content , dibandingin maskara yg gw pake dulu2, maskara gw sekarang juga termasuk yg susah dibersihinnya. Tapi sekarang gw udah tau trik nya, mesti dikompres dulu jadi lebih gampang dihapus, plus dengan cara gini jadinya lembut juga buat mata.

    Lip products sih mostly gue pake high end. Bibir gue dry & sensitive banget soalnya. Kalopun beli drugstore lippies biasanya buat cek warna doang, kalo suka biasanya gue bakal cari dupe warna itu di high end brands. (PS: gue belom nemu dupenya NYX Thalia for ages Hidden Content )

    Kalo mascara & eyeliner gue kebanyakan pake drugstore & mid-end. Gue termasuk yg strict sama aturan 3-5 bulan buang soalnya. Mata gue punya sicca syndrome, tapi most Japanese drugstore mascara/eyeliner sih nggak pernah bikin mata gue makin kering whatsoever. Satu2nya eyeliner gue yg high–end itu cuma pencil linernya Armani (cuma ini soalnya pensil yg sukses nggak smudging di waterline/tightline gue).
    Skin color: Medium-dark, tan skin • Olive undertone • MAC NC42, Pantone Color IQ 3Y08-5Y09.
    Skin type: VERRRRYYY oily, quite prone to eczema/dehydration but not acne–prone.

    Karena aku 'ngikut' mama dari kecil, yang aku pakai jadi ngikut mama sampai sekarang Hidden Content
    Lipstick, skincare, BB/CC cream/foundation, eyeliner, blush, makeup remover biasanya mid-end to high-end range, sama juga alasannya karena kulit sensitif.
    Lucunya face wash sama lip treatment biasa pakai drugstore, hehehe.

    Barusan beli Maybelline concealer dan CG foundation sembunyi-sembunyi.. Aku sih jarang pakai jadi kalo beli yang high-end sayang sendiri Hidden Content
    Nekat order NYX juga karena penasaran banget sama warnanya, dari kecil suka ditakut-takutin kalo sembarangan pake lipstick bibirnya nanti menghitam, nah loh Hidden Content

    @Hidden Content
    Sama, aku juga di tempelin pake cotton pad soaked in eye makeup remover, tapi masih rontok.. Harus agak banyak ya removernya?

    Nyokap demen high end, gw demen drugstore. Nyokap bisa tahan satu jenis dan satu warna esedo/foundie/lipstik . Gw ga bisa. Bosenan & i loved too many things.

    Mascara:
    Pertama nyoba mascara dior. Kuasnya bagus bgt, formulanya so so. Estee lauder, so so. Maybelline bagus tp semuanya menyengat mata & bikin bulmat rontok kecuali non-waterproof.
    Sejauh ini maskara yg aku suka itu mavala & mustika ratu warna ungu non-waterproof (persis kuas dior cm sedikit lbh kurus). Dgn harga dibawah 40rb, drugstore wins.

    Skincare pilih middle end. Drugstore just didn't do it, high end wasn't worth the price. Exception utk kulit kering/cuaca kering ky di Jepang atau USA winter, shiseido is ur best friend.

    I swear by laneige water sleeping pack:ex, bioderma sensibio & evoo+air (bulmat terpanjang yg gw miliki wkt pk remover ini. 1 stgh cm! Dari yg biasanya cuma 0,8-1,2cm), cure peeling gel, green tea, masker yoghurt (any-plain-non-colorant-yes-you-can-consume-it-yoghurt, kadang pk merk yummy.).

    @Hidden Content , mungkin kompres nya kurang lama? Atau makeup removernya kurang ampuh Hidden Content
    Tapi baca komennya irene87, pake maskara Maybelline bikin bulmat rontok. Mungkin lo emang gak cocok ama Maybelline. Gw sendiri terakhir pake maskara Maybelline udah lama banget, gak inget soal bulu mata rontok, cuma ingetnya mata panda Hidden Content

    Eyeliner pencil, go to mid or drugstore. Gw pk dior, estee lauder, lancome, benefit .. Item sih item kereng, but i think it's designated more for mature eyes yg dipastikan bakal nempel ke semua keriput & nutup loose ends &loopholes. But they always always tugs the eyelids. Not for young healthy must-not-tugged eyelids.
    Go for ud/mufe/mac/Japanese brands.
    Kl drugstore go for nyx slide on liner. korean eyeliner seringnya ga tahan lama kecuali clio, tp entah kenapa selalu punya perfect brown shimmer yg kl dipake tuh mata langsung cling ky lioele punya.

    @Hidden Content
    Oh kirain eye lashes ku being sensitive makanya selalu rontok pake Mascara Maybelline. Sekarang pake lancome jarang rontok, paling seminggu sekali lah..

    Kalo aku :
    Skincare : middle kecuali toner dan facial wash
    Foundation : middle/low end.
    Eye shadow : urban decay. I fell in love with naked 3 dan udah males pake yg lain *liat tumpukan esedo *
    Mascara : middle
    Lipstick : middle. Low end Biasanya wangi nya ga nahan dan drying di aku.
    Blush on : middle to high (di harga sale Hidden Content )
    Loose powder : Coty. Seriously, bagus!
    Eye brow : low

    Lainnya belum khusus sih.
