Drugstore Makeup Vs Department Store Makeup

Whats the difference between drugstore makeup and department store makeup you asked?

What is the difference between drugstore makeup and department store makeup you asked? After all they all seem to look the same..

1. Drugstore makeups look good upon application, but enjoy it then because, it either melt off your face or fade after a few hours while department store makeup stay put all day. The saying, less is more only applies when it comes to department store makeups!

2. Department store makeups are richer in pigment while drug store makeups require more applications to get the true color pigment of the product on your face

3. The ingredients used are not the same.Do you really think the ingredients used in the department store brands are the same as the drugstore brands? Think again! The ingredients used in department store makeup are more potent and richer.

4. Matching your shade! This is another reason to consider department store brands. When it comes to matching your skin with foundation or concealer, at a department store you can always get help from a pro to help you match your shade based on your skin type, skin tone etc while at the drugstore you are on your own.

5. Hygiene. At a department store the makeup testers are well attended to which means they are cleaned regularly to prevent germs which makes it safer to try on while at the drugstore, if there is any tester, it is barely if ever cleaned.

6. A Makeover! At a department store you can get a makeover from a pro at a drugstore you cant

7. The service! Nothing beats one on one consultation at your favorite makeup counter when it comes to makeup shopping! Its very pampering and relaxing. At a department store you get this experience at a drugstore there is no one there to help you with the drugstore brands!

Always think quality, not quantity! Yes you can get a drugstore mascara for cheap, but think about why its so cheap..think about the ingredients and what you are putting on your face!
