I think I am just in sticker shock after a trip to the Bobbi Brown counter yesterday. My friend is doing my makeup for my wedding and she suggested Bobbi''s products and MAC products. I am the type of girl who buys makeup from CVS and spends very little per year (mascara, eye liner, face powder...thats it!)
Yesterday we did a trial run and I LOVED how it looked....the makeup stayed flawless all day. I guess that is a perk of buying good stuff. I am just wrestling with the money I spent.
I bought
a compact foundation,
bronzing powder
3 eye shadows
mascara
the cream shadow primer stuff
eye brightener
shimmer brick compact for cheeks
5 different brushes
Yesterday I saw it as an investment in my makeup future (especially the brushes) but today I woke up saying "What the F%%$! did I just do?"
I think I just need some reassurance that expensive makeup is worth it in the long run....I dont wear much makeup now, but do want to use quality stuff for my wedding. Plus, I''m hoping that if I have this stuff, maybe I will actually use it on a regular basis - it sure did look nice.
What are your experiences with higher end makeup / brushes?
Overpriced or well worth the investment?
Its not too late for me to return some...I havent opened them
