Which is more important to you?
Nice packaging and paying a higher price due to it.
OR
Cheaper looking packaging, good product, lower price?
I think MAC got lucky with medium priced items and good packaging vs Stila who has cute packaging but $$$$ prices. |

I'll take cheaper looking packaging anytime. If the product is great, I just assume (rightly or wrongly! that my $$ is paying for the product, not the package. My friend just recently bought a blush in a beautiful compact(it may have been Guerlain) for $150.  There are sooo many other things that would be worth $150 to me.FWTW  |

M.A.C.: Not-so-cheap anymore. They were a lot more reasonable before Lauder bought the company. Trust me on that, as I've used their products since about 1990. |

I couldn't care less, so as long as whatever inside did what I bought it for.
I like Tall, streamlined bottles, and I love having a few products from the same brand lined up in my bathroom. It just looks nice.
That said, I like PTR's simple, stand up bottle packaging with simple color. Very nice.
I also like Clarins men's line...blue and silver...although the products are terrible, the blue & silver rock.
I especially like Emporio Armani for him. That cologne's packaging is great. (And I love the scent too, lol) |
