I couldn't pay $60 for a lip balm. How about eye shadow or lipstick? Those are must-have's for me.

Wow $60 for a lip balm. That is crazy. I'll stick with my $3 Nivea lip balm.

60$ for a lip balm? a little much?

That sponge sounds great but for $20?!?

I want the beauty blender sponge and I really want the Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage, I have been eyeing that for weeks along with the setting powder.

It's nice to see (mostly) affordable products recommended by a pro!!

ecotools are hands-down some of the best brushes out there, including department store brushes as well!

by BlondeCupcake Saturday, July 28, 2012 at 08:43PM Report as inappropriate

Seriously. $60 lip balm?! I use Blistex Silk 'n Shine for $4 and it works beautifully. I do see the Ecotools brush set in my local drugstore all the time and always wondered about them. I'll give them a try, since the price is more realistic for me. I'm also curious about the Anastasia brow gel. :)

I think I'll pass on the $60 lip balm and stick with Burt's Bees Replenishing Lip Balm for $3. This does a great job of moisturizing, is natural and never tested on animals.

I am going to try the lip balm, just to see if it really is worth it.

Female celebrities can afford to pay 60 bucks for a top-of-the-line, fancy-schmancy, rose-scented lip balm, but average women don't have that type of disposable income. I'm a total lip balm addict, but I've found that the Carmex I buy at the local drugstore works just fine. Sure, it doesn't smell like roses, but it still gets the job done.

Cle de Peau Beaute concealer and Shu Uemura eyelash curler would have been my picks.

Eco tools brushes are great. Luxury lip balm though? I dunno.

I was actually very impressed that almost all of these were very affordable! I was sure coming from a makeup artist they would outrageously priced. Looking forward to trying out a few of these!

Love, love, love Ecotools! The rest is debatable - pricey or tested on animals.

i'm only willing to get the brushes

by NYdesichick Tuesday, June 12, 2012 at 04:08PM Report as inappropriate

Most of the products recommended are easily affordable. Thanks for the great tips!

by alictasia Tuesday, June 12, 2012 at 07:40AM Report as inappropriate

Great concept but most of us can't afford a $60 lip balm. Maybe they could add some drugstore makeup that more of us can afford. Besides that, a good informative article.

by RoleModel Tuesday, June 5, 2012 at 05:05PM Report as inappropriate

some items here are too expensive. 60$ lip balm? really?

by venenumletalis Tuesday, June 5, 2012 at 01:32PM Report as inappropriate

I cannot live without Anastasia Brow Gel!! It's a must :-)

by MizzPink Tuesday, June 5, 2012 at 12:58PM Report as inappropriate

Anastasia Brow Gel is a MUST. Not only does it groom your brows, it removes excess product which makes it look more even and a tube lasts for a very long time.

by volta Tuesday, June 5, 2012 at 12:04AM Report as inappropriate

I agree about the balm being ridiculous, but I own the brushes and they're pretty nice. Can't beat that set for the price. The eyelash curler is intriguing...

by shinyandiknowit Monday, June 4, 2012 at 05:53PM Report as inappropriate

can't wait to try some of these out, thanks for the tips!

by sportimonki13 Monday, June 4, 2012 at 05:10PM Report as inappropriate

Informative article. A definite no on the lip balm but may try the curler when my other one wears out. Also the makeup brushes.

by Nicole1021 Monday, June 4, 2012 at 03:14PM Report as inappropriate

I love to hear about products that pro's use but I have to say, when you are willing to pay $60.00 for a lip balm, you're either getting it free or you need a pysch evaluation.
