^Yeah, the only "designer" brand I use is Iman, which is for my foundation because I have a really unique pigmentation. The only other thing that I have ever used where the designer brand was really that much better is base for foundation and eyeshadow. With a really good eyeshadow base even then cheapest eyeshadow looks good and even that is only $20 and lasts forever. I guess designer brands like MAC have more colors, but I doubt I'm even going to buy like, a green lipstick, even if it stayed on for a week :P

Can't really blame Ayu for talking about Rimmel. They shouldn't be paying her if she wasn't. Although, I'm sure that she probably talks about the ones she does at least some-what like. I doubt she would just blindly promote a product. It would make her look bad.

this is so fun talkin about ayu... maybe we should share makeup tips!
