Generic vs. Name Brand Make-up


By Victoria Alfieri
April 3, 2013 - 11:59pm

I am the type of person that could spend their entire paycheck in Sephora (it has happened before). I love make-up and am always looking for the next best thing.
Over the years, I have tried just about everything.
That being said, I have found through personal experience, cheap make-up that works just as well as the high-end, expensive, name brand make-up.
Out of every product I’ve tried here are my favorites (and what I use right now):
Foundation
I have acne, so I need a full coverage foundation to cover it up.
Two years ago I discovered this gem from Maybelline New York and I have been using it ever since. Try: Maybelline Dream Smooth Mousse
$9.79 at Maybelline.com
A sponge comes with it so no need to buy a makeup...

  Most tall women are often told what not to wear, or how to create an ensemble that doesn’t draw attention to their height. Because spring is the season of renewal and growth, these fashions do just the opposite.   Be bubbly! Try shirts and dresses with a bell sleeve, like this bohemian-style dress and belt. Dresses with bell sleeves gives your arms a flowing appearance, as opposed to sleeves that cut off right above the wrist because of arm length. To add to it, try dresses with laced or floral designs!   READ MORE
