    Well I've noticed the dollar store has lots of makeup brands for you know, a dollar. Lots of my friends say the dollar store make-up is really bad for your skin. Should I go with just the name brands like L'Or?al or Urban Decay or just buy everythingthere?

          Don't go for dollar store makeup. It's cheap and might affect your skin! You don't know what ingredients they use so go forL'Oreal.

            What products are you inquiring about?
            I've heard some ladies say they love shadows and lippies from the dollar store, but I personally would never trust face make up from the dollar store as they generally use cheapingredients.

              Cheaper makeup tends to have more chemicals in them... I would just stick with the brands you know:)

                If you have sensitive skin don't trust if but if you have random skin than I don't see whynot.

                  I've bought makeup from the dollar store before and have never had a problem. My local one carries NYC, Maybelline, ELF, Covergirl. I say you will not know until youtry.

                  If its brands sold in regular main-line stores its perfectly harmless. My local Family Dollar carries Wet n Wild, Maybelline and Covergirl and sometimes Loreal. And a lot of it is currentreleases.

                      Dangggg Maybelline for a dollar, whattt? the only makeup that is sold at my dollar store is the piece of old crap you'd literally find in the 80's. Oh and some of L.A lip gloss and that'sit.

                        I wouldn't because normally the cheaper things are the more chemicals/ cheaper ingredients they put intothem

                            I use it sometimes :) mainly just eyes and lip stuff. I only use Neutrogena on my face to try and prevent breakouts:p.

                              I definitely use dollar store makeup. LA Colors is sold at Dollar Tree and they have amazingly pigmented eyeshadow and lipstick. I also use e.l.f. and Klean Color. I've never had an issue with makeup from the dollarstore.

                                Oh how I wish my dollar store sold Klean color.. I like la colors shadows, and I have found L'Oreal , Milani, LE WnW, Elf , cover girl and physicians formula at my local dollar store before! So I definitely check themout!

                                It depends. Careful what you use! Personally I like the jumbo eye pencils, la colors eyeshadows and pigments, and there lippies (: I just wouldn't recommend powders and face stuff fromthere!

                                  Urban decay rocks but I have some dollar store lipsticks that work really well and are very pigmented I got them from dollar tree you can also use crayons to make your own if youwant.
