Okay, I'm not even going to try to compare the quality of drugstore brands to MAC, or even say that HiP is the best makeup ever, but I will say this boldly:  If I can't get to the MAC counter or boutique in my area, or let's face it, money's tight this month and I'd rather be responsible like pay my bills or eat, I hit the discount drugstores and buy L'Oreal's HiP line.  The quality of HiP comes closest to the high quality eyeshadows like MAC.  The pigment colors are so smooth, beautifuly rich and saturated!  Just like MAC's shadows, a little goes a long way.  For the price(and especially when the store's are having a sale and it's "buy 1, get one 50% off/ free" week, I can buy 2 eyeshadows for under $15-$20...add a discount coupon to the mix and it's time to do the dance of joy!)  I've mixed HiP's colors with MAC shadows and they blend beautifully.  I know that not everyone is going to agree with this review, and not every person has positive experiences with every makeup line.  All I can speak of is my own experiences and I have to say I've had nothing but positive outcomes with HiP's shadows and cosmetics.  For all the beauty snobs out there, there are positive things to be found at the drugstore!  My opinion is that L'Oreal HiP is a good buy, and the shadows are the best I've ever bought at the drugstore, and are the best cosmetics at their price point.
