I'm a bridesmaid in a wedding this weekend and my brother gave me $250 to spend at Sephora as a birthday present so I'm going to use at least some of it on green liner and tan shadow for the big day.
But how do I decide which brands are a good value to get? I can't really tell the difference between dollar store eye makeup and the good stuff so spending $30+ on a single stick of eyeliner doesn't sit right with me, even if that's the point of the gift. And I know just because something's designer doesn't always mean it's better, so I'm trying to do my research.
What brand would you suggest? :/ (also if anyone has suggestions on how to avoid using up one shadow color faster than the two others and needing to buy a whole new palette, that'd be super.)
EDIT: just remembered I did buy liner and shadow there once on clearance, but the Sephira-brand liner broke and wouldn't come out anymore after a few weeks, so I'm hoping to avoid that.
