As much as i LOVE MAC and Sephora (i know they have a brand of cosmetics, but i'd say they're more of a chain that sells other brands), the average girl isn't using those. MAYBE a couple of items on a splurge, but everyday makeup in the makeup case... not so much. Sephora isnt everywhere right...? There are 3 i frequent often but what doesnt NYC have? (though i imagine in metro areas/better malls these names are common) i just figure the appeal of CG spreads wider.

I actually watched this morning (was at the dentist office) and i didn't see this season, but against the other girl, her looks wouldve made me root her her. I noticed INSTANTLY that she was plus-sized, and thought, wow OK Miss Tyra...

She'd be too small to work for Lane Bryant though.
I went to school with a plus sized model (nothing major she said, a couple catalogs here and there) and she had horror stories of the few jobs she got from high-end labels that--GASP--carried a size 10-12-14-16 and treated her like the plague at shoots.
