Hay Everyjuan!

I've been meaning to bring this up for a while, but got distracted with a lot of other things.

So the holidays are coming up, and that means lots of SHOPPING! It seems we tend to avoid or love brands based on what the garoos say about them, like Piggie...wait, I mean Pinkiecharm and Stila, MichellePhan and Lancome, Makeupbytiffanyd and Sigma, and Foreverkailyn and pretty much every brand that's sent her free shit.

But here's another brand I'm adding to my never-support-again list this year:



NYX, WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU?

Yup, a month or so ago NYX officially released standing displays that can still be seen inside Ulta stores, showcasing what may be the biggest hacks in the "beauty community", LisaElle and BlairElizabeth Fowler. This picture came from a member on twitter, but I've seen it myself in real life, unfortunately. (A friend with me at the time remarked, "She's SIXTEEN? She looks like a twenty something whore!")

But the biggest problem here is that these legitimate brands are slaving over mediocre girls undeserving of the terms "artist" or "guru", just for a quick buck. Unfortunately, it's not a way to give your brand credibility in the long run, at least in my opinion.

So now I'm interested--what other brands are you avoiding because of the garoooos? And what should I do with this NYX stuff I don't feel like using anymore? Their quality was always so-so, anyway.
