Wondering if those of you who are beauty and financially savvy could recommend your favorite places to buy make-up online?

Who has the best deals/selection that you like?

What are their extras (ex. discounts, samples, promotions) that you like?

Sephora or Ulta are the most reputable, imo, because they also have actual stores. Discounts vary with different promotions for week or by individual brand. With other places that are just internet sites, you have to wonder if they are legit, or if they do finally ship something, if it is stolen or expired or a knockoff, etc.

I like allcosmeticswholesale.com. For extra deals, Clinique and Estee Lauder run bonus times.

I like cherry culture, they carrie NYX brand, which is a professional line ( like MAC) but their price point is really cheap. Its cruelty free too. They run monthly specials, and shipping if free if you spend $40. I shop Ulta and Sephora too.Btw, Sephora has lots of goodies on sale right now.

Cherry Culture Makeup Cosmetics : Bloom, Eyeko, Juice Beauty, MOR, NYX, Playboy, Splash, Sugar, Tinte and more

I like Sephora. With them, you get a great selection, free shipping, and accumulate points towards free items. You will also get cards in the mail for free products that are not included in the points program, which is also free.

Another vote for Sephora. They often have deals where you'll get free products with the purchase of $50, etc. In terms of affordable, good quality makeup, I don't think there's really anything comparable to Sephora and Ulta.

Another vote for Ulta and there are always promos going on to help you save $ whether its free shipping or $ off your purchase.

Beauty.com -- they have many products with a color match guarantee. So if you get it, and the shade is wrong, you can print a postage paid label, and send it back free for up to 30 days.

I like Ulta, because there aren't any brick-and-mortar Sephoras around here other than inside JCPenney, and the online coupons don't work there. I like to be able to try on product or avoid shipping charges/delays at times.
