favorite makeup line?

Ok– I was watching Smashbox on QVC this morning– I was thinking about
this line– but I've also been interested in BareMinerals and a few
others...right now I primarily wear Avon but love the idea of the face
kits and better quality of products.
SO...my question is...what is your favorite line of makeup and why?
Also what is the price for a few basic supplies like a foundation and
an eyeliner?
Example:
Avon–
foundation

If you start using other brands, are you going to change your email address
from avongirl to something else?
I'm not brand–faithful at all. Avon and Mary Kay have websites where you
can check prices. Tons of other brands are carried/listed by Sephora.com.

Good points, cofarb. I use Georgio Armani, don't know the prices and
don't care to look them up.
Just call me

"If you start using other brands, are you going to change your email

no– I rarely use that email address, just did it for a few groups
actually...it's not a propaganda thing– that's an email that I never
check unless it is to link to a new group...but it works well for
that:)

I just recently purchased a few SmashBox e/s, and I'm in LOVE. I got a
very shimmery palette from Sephora which is simply gorgeous (Eyelights
in "Flash," which consists of "peachy pink, shimmering burgandy, mossy
green) – I want to get "Strobe" soon, which looks equally stunning, and
I got an Eyeshadow Trio, that I also love (Smashbox.com is the name of
the trio, which consists of "shimmering neutral beige, soft champagne,
rich chocolate). The palette was $32, the trio was $28. I'd highly
recommend their e/s – it's very silky going on, the colors look
fabulous whether they are matte or shimmer, and they look as good at
the end of the day as the start. I will be purchasing more from them,
no doubt.

If you love Smashbox, then consider purchasing from QVC. I think they
have the best buys and their kits are not available anywhere else.
Although I do really like Smashbox, their best item is their eyeliner
line. Nothing beats it, in my opinion....that and their face primer.

I think MAC overall for concealer, foundation, and just a wide range of
colors for eyeshadows. I love the powerpoint pencils...they just don't
budge.

Wow, absolutely impossible. Thought a terribly loyal friend, I don't
have a drop of brand loyalty in my blood when it comes to makeup. I
have a few favorites in some lines (like Mercier for foundation and
powder) but otherwise, I'm all over the map – high end, low end,
anything in between.
And prices vary according to lines. Wet n Wild will set you back a buck
a throw, but I've also spent a lot on something in a line like Nars or
Longo.
