Drugstore VS Highend

Already I've seen a lot of requests regarding more posts on drugstore items. First of all, I am a huge fan of drugstore cosmetics, not only for the convenience factor but also because I usually don't feel guilty after a haul. That being said, I am much less likely to buy a drugstore item full priced than a high end product (although, I try to get some sort of deal on high end products too). Because of that, I don't buy things the minute they come out and often wait for sales. Sooo... what that means is that practically everyone in the blogosphere has already reviewed and tested the products in question. Do you still want reviews even long after something launches? Btw - one of my favorite bloggers ever reviews tons of drugstore products, Nouveau Cheap. Check her out if you haven't done so already.

I also want to mention that I rarely if ever purchase the high end products that I feature for full price (I'm not wealthy!). This is why I post tons of sales information on the brands that I happen to like. Take the Korres shadow for instance. I paid $5.60 excluding tax for each of them which is less than most drugstore prices.

My favorite spot at practically every store is the little hidden sale sections. In ULTA, it's usually in the back near the salon. Most website have sale sections too and of course there are the websites that offer the high end products at a fraction of their retail cost everyday; beautycrunch is one of my personal faves.

I'll continue to post codes, helpful hints and ways for you to score products at a discount. And if you guys still want them, I'll post some more drugstore reviews. Any requests for particular items?
