Loreal HIP

I started using this line a couple of months ago, they have really nice lipgloss and lipstick. I only buy it when its on sale. Do any of you ladies use it? I plan to buy some this week, it has been reduced to 75% off, I don't think it is really popular in my area.

I really like the eyeshadows and lipglosses, haven't tried anything else from the line though.

I find it ridiculously expensive for a drugstore brand and complete ripoff of MAC. Even the font is the same! My fiancee (typical male when it comes to makeup) even noticed the similarities and commented that they are trying to copy MAC. I find it amusing.

But it's totally worth it when you can find B1G1F or coupons & clearance sales.

I totally know what you mean. They have an exact copy of Blue Brown and Pink Pearl. I bought the one that looks like Blue Brown and I swatched it with my mac pigment and could not tell the difference at all. But then again if mac is too expensive for some people this would be the way to go. But still... I haven't noticed the font yet but I will check it out lol.

It's called Intrepid, you can get a good deal if you catch it when its buy one get one free, which drugstores have all the time. Especially CVS and Walgreen's.

i have a bottle of the foundation... its kinda weird.
it goes on real orange and then 10 minutes later it kinda adjusts to your skin color... just makes you look tan. But it is kinda greasy. i have a duo of like an organish color and a cream color. its nice... it really does match macs colors tho... kinda funny.

Tenacious is a dead ringer for tan, also (go check my swatches in the swatch section). The off-white one has NOTHING on Vanilla though.

i lovvvve their lipglosses and shadows too! i lovvve the way the glosses smell... like coconut caramel (to me at leaset

) their shadows are great!
