Do “Best of Beauty” listings in magazines influence Your makeup Decisions?

A couple of mags on my reading list
You understand the listings I’m speaking about — the best-of products for hair, makeup, skin, etc. The roundups. They appear a great deal around the end of the year, as well as sometimes likewise between the seasons.

Allure does them every year, as well as they’re quite extensive. I checked out a great one just recently in genuine Simple.

Back before social media, blogs as well as YouTube, magazines had more influence over exactly how I spent my makeup money. Now, not so much. I’ve definitely bought products based on magazine best-of listings before, however I can’t keep in mind the last time I did it. It’s been a few years…

At one point a few years ago, I keep in mind seeing Maybelline excellent Lash Mascara as well as NARS Orgasm Mascara win year after year after year, as well as thinking, “Yeah, Orgasm is a great blush, for sure, however there are SO many other excellent blushes out there. Why does it keep winning??”

I dunno…

I like reading those lists, since I like listings (you understand me). I believe they’re interesting, however when I’m in the mood to do some hauling (which I still like to do, much to El Hub’s chagrin), I don’t truly utilize them.

How about you?
