S...I agree on majority of them sis! here's mine :)<br /><br />Splurge on foundation, concealer, primers and blush since they can cause breakouts and skin problems (I have sensitive skin so anything that touches my face must be the best I can find)<br /><br />Save on mascara, lip sticks/glossses and eye brow pencil coz they can expire easily and many cheaper brands work great too!<br /><br />For eyeshadows..you can either splurge or save on this one..depends if you love putting eye makeup or not :)<br /><br />great post sis! :)Crystal Galehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09844747405650300281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7077773694562407140.post-59584755057492455252009-04-29T15:25:00.000+08:002009-04-29T15:25:00.000+08:00hmm. i will splurge on mascara even though it has ...hmm. i will splurge on mascara even though it has the shortest life span because I must say that the mascara carries the whole look if you don't wear falsies that is. :p But I am definitely more of a hoarder if I see my fave mascara on the rack I buy a bottle of two without thinking. <br /><br />Eyeliner I agree with the splurge although I have a nichido eyeliner that works really well :D but on the contrary I own a bobbi brown since I am not very confident with my other eyeliner hehe.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7077773694562407140.post-50036201764504796102009-04-29T14:36:00.000+08:002009-04-29T14:36:00.000+08:00That's what I do except for eyeshadows and liner. ...That's what I do except for eyeshadows and liner.

I have a slightly...Nice to know your point of view!<br />I have a slightly different opinion for some of them...<br /><br />Eyeshadow - splurge if it is a color you wear everyday. Save if you like to switch around and wear different colors, or if you just want to try a new color.<br /><br />Eyeliner - save - I toss liquid liners at certain intervals similar to what you do for mascara. Revlon color stay is a good brand which is not expensive.Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08159550372848210460noreply@blogger.com
