If you could only ever buy your makeup products from one brand - which would you choose?

I'm also asking because I want to get the kits which work together hence aren't expensive. I'm a fan of Fenty Beauty and NARs - Glossier coming in there at a close 2nd/3rd. But if you could only ever have one makeup brand?

Estée Lauder Doublewear from me as well, the only thing that makes me look less of a ripe tomato.

Charlotte Tilbury

Boots no. 7.

BelleNoir · 17/07/2022 18:56

Dior & Chanel for me

Such a good question! I think I'd have to say NARS.

LadyOfTheCanyon · 17/07/2022 19:47

Oooh I was thinking about this the other day and it would probably have to be NARS, but Hourglass would be a close second.

Bobbi brown

FridayiminlovewithRobertSmith · 17/07/2022 19:55

Fenty make up
skincare aurora London maybe Elemis for certain products

Neverendingdust · 17/07/2022 19:56

Chanel. No contest

Kitkatsareace · 17/07/2022 19:59

It was Chanel but I’ve recently gone back to Lancôme

DianaBarry5 · 17/07/2022 20:06

Clinique... I'm old and set in my ways though ...

EverybodysALebowski · 17/07/2022 20:07

Nars or Laura Mercier, but maybe Shiseido

TreePoser · 17/07/2022 20:07

Rimmel. If I had to buy everything from CT or Bobby Brown I'd go broke. So ... tbh, I should buy more cheaper make up and less make up from Charlotte Tilbury and Bobby Brown and Laura Mercier and all the other over priced brands I have. I like what I have bought, but Rimmel make up is good too!

KylieCharlene · 17/07/2022 20:08

Clarins for the beauty flash and great lip glosses.

Pat McGrath

This sounds like a footballer. Off to google

BakeOffRewatch · 17/07/2022 20:10

Deffo Laura Mercier. Just works.

Cocolapew · 17/07/2022 20:11

Max Factor

TreePoser · 17/07/2022 20:13

Wow, it's high end stuff. 83 euro for foundation. I love the packaging though. It's not boring.

Purplecatshopaholic · 17/07/2022 20:16

I’m a total make up slut, so this is a hard one! Current range is mainly Charlotte T, Chanel, some Nars, some Smashbox, I love a Lancôme lippie … Ooft. If I had to choose, I’d probably have to say Charlotte T as I couldnt live without her mascara, so would ‘make do’ with her other products, lol.

GoldPig · 17/07/2022 20:20

Clarins

PegasusReturns · 17/07/2022 20:25

If I could really only have one it would be boots no 7. Their foundation is better than anything else I’ve tried and I’ve tried pretty much everything!

Luredbyapomegranate · 17/07/2022 20:28

Clinique would be my skincare and makeup brand if picking only one. Good quality, not too £££ and I’m not allergic to it.

BlueKaftan · 17/07/2022 18:21

Chanel for their lipstick

Agree.

Stopdropnroll · 17/07/2022 20:35

This is a tricky one!!

Mine would be YSL, Bobbi brown or lancome.

YSL for the touché eclat products

Lancome for the hypnose mascara

And Bobbi brown for an amazing little eye set I've got that fab for traveling.

Each of them I also like other product they do so could stick to one brand for other product belonging to the brand I'd chosen but I'd struggle to pick just one of the above products. That said I'm leaning most towards YSL for the touché eclat tinted moisturiser.
