I agree with Jomar, try L'Oreal's HIP line first. Try to get it BOGO so you can get a bunch half off. Then if you find shades you really like in HIP, you can find analogous shades in higher end brands like MAC or NARS. That's how I eased myself into higher end glosses. I liked the colors of HIP, but I needed a better texture and moisture retention, and that's why I switched over.
