I know that there are alot of manufacturers that make a name brand product and then also sell it under a different not so well known brand name.

Does anyone know if Clinque makes another line of makeup products. I have been bitten by the Clinque bug but don't know if I can afford to maintain it. So, wondering if anyone is aware of another name they sell under.

Finding makeup has always been hard for me, and they were the first to actually take the time and help me, I could never have done this on my own. Thanks for any thoughts on this.

I also really like Clinique. To save money, I usually get it on ebay.

Physician's Formula is a drugstore brand with a similar philosophy (hypo-allergenic and natural). They're a bit more expensive than other brands (cover girl, maybelline, revlon, etc.) but you can usually find coupons online.

Estee Lauder owns Clinique.

Here are the other brands Estee owns: http://www.elcompanies.com/Pages/Cli...of-beauty.aspx

keep in mind that the department store brands will have the more premium ingredients at higher concentrations.

Gosh I love that stuff, but instead of Clinique I'm seconding the physicians formula notion...their eye palettes are especially pretty.

Based on the link above, look at the American Beauty line at Kohl's.

I was a die hard clinique fan, but I fell in love with Victoria's Secret make up. The pigment is high quality and they always have great 3/for sales.

I wore Clinique for years, but started to feel like it was drying my skin (plus, it's pricier). I buy Nutrogena base now, which I like much better.

I have Victoria Secret eye makeup and didn't know that they sold the rest. Pretty neat. I am currently using a mixture of makeups right now.

After doing a lot of research on the best drugstore brand, I found a lot of people suggest NYX. I went out and bought some eyeshadow last week and I love it. With the shape of my eyes, eyeshadow creases and fades off on half of my eyelid within about 2 hours (even wearing primer)... So I would never wear eye makeup since within 2 hours it would look like a 5 year old did my makeup and it was super embarrassing. However, this NYX seems to stay on for about 5 hours without me needing to fix it so it has become my favorite.
