I splurge on all of them because I buy VERY VERY few and I make sure they are exactly what I want. I've found that I enjoy getting a few beautiful things in beautiful packaging, and have little to store! I only shop when I run out of something.


I am a huge sucker for packaging : )

Re: What Makeup Products Do You Splurge On

Concealer (YSL),Tinted Moisturizer (LM), Blush (Tarte) are my splurge items. And these products are tried-and-true for me so I repurchase them. I also splurge on lipsticks because I like to test the colors before I buy and there's no way to do that at the drugstore. But I do use drugstore mascara and eye pencils (CG). And I agree with Sooner... I only buy the things I know I need and will use. I'm not a cosmetics hoarder.

It's probably not a ""splurge"" considering how much $ many of you spend.......but I MUST have Adrienne's Meltdowns

Foundation, concealer and brushes. I have mostly high-end things though, because I can get them for free with points from my pharmacy.

Edited to add: I live in Canada, this a program through Shoppers Drug Mart. They have high-end Beauty Boutiques in most of their stores.

Re: What Makeup Products Do You Splurge On

I splurge of Trish McEvoy's Eye Base Essentials and Her Precision Brow Shaper pencil, and they are a splurge because her products are expensive for the amount of product you get, but they work better for me than any other product I've tried. I also splurge on concealer, but have tried dozens and haven't found the HG yet. I also splurge on Tarte's Lights Camera Lashes mascara-I buy the duo that QVC sells because it's a pretty good deal. I've tried a lot of mascara and most cause my lashes to fall out or break off and Tarte's doesn't so I always end up returning to Tarte after I stray. I also splurge on skincare. Spend way too much money, try every new line or product that comes out & that's where I need to find what works for me and stay with it.

QVC lost a lot of my posts too!

Foundation, concealer, and some kind of finishing powder.

I'll also splurge on a GREAT eye shadow palette.
