Although more expensive products do tend to give better results (they also tend to last longer as you don't need to use much to get the desired effect), it's not uncommon to find a wonder product that costs next to nothing.

I like to use Clinque foundation and Benefit concealer, because I do find they last longer and give better coverage. However, I use a cheap Rimmel liquid eyeliner and it works just as well as any high-end product. It's also important to look at what works for you. If you prefer the colour and feel of a cheaper foundation compared to a more expensive one, then go for the cheaper one.

Generally speaking, you get what you pay for. More expensive products have better ingredients. Like, MAC makeup is way better than Covergirl.

There are exceptions, though. Like L'oreal is made by Lancome and works just as well. Revlon is another good, cheap brand.

My MAC makeup is so easy to work with. I love it to death.

However, my Sephora brand eyeliner ($4) is my absolute FAVORITE thing. It works so well.

Generally, eye and lip stuff is okay to go a little cheaper on.

For foundation and concealer, more expensive will probably get you better quality. I recommend Bare Minerals.

Hi!!!!
That is such a good question!
and here is the answer hehe:
NO WAY... it's true that in SOME cases good makeup is probably expensive,but it does not apply in all cases... believe me...
Hey, you probably won't believe me but I got this great eyeshadow makeup case at 7 dollars yeah 7 and they work super great... It was incredible... anyways other than eyeshadow (which there are lots at good prices which are good quality),for stuff like foundation, powder and other stuff i'd say covergirl...
anyways I know a bit about makeup (not an expert but I do know a bit) so if you need to know anything else... INBOX
HEHE
take care!!
toodles

It's both true and false. I can go to a big mall that has a MAC & buy really good make-up but MAC is also REALLY expensive. Then I could go to Walmart and buy really good make-up that isn't expensive at all. Prices just come from brand names to be honest. Now, there are some make-up items that you can find at Walmart for like $1-$3 and their not really that good =/
Eyeshadow wise, I buy all different kinds and I
actually like the NYC compact eyeshadows. It's
not expensive & works really well.
