The beginning of my financial ruin... w/ PICS

[Cinci]

Ok, well once upon a time, there was this girl who loved the color green. She was looking for a green eyeshadow to match her car.. So she mentioned it to a friend of hers that was a makeup artist.. A few days later, the makeup artist friend came back to her with a pretty new eyeshadow: Wondergrass, from the CShock collection.. this was the beginning of the end for the girl.. from now on, there were no savings, only MAC purchases... (Thank god the nearest MAC is 8 hrs away.. or else i'd really be in trouble!!)

Anyways, I love looking at what everyone else has, cause it gives me ideas for things to buy for myself... So here's some pics of what I've bought so far.. maybe it will give someone else some ideas

Incase you were wondering what any of the colors/names are (and to make this post searchable for those looking for pics of certain items) I'll post a text list below the pictures. If you have questions or want to see a swatch of anything, send me a PM

Sorry if the pics are a bit dark... I'm just figuring out the camera and trying to make the colors photograph as true to color as possible.

Update: I can no longer fit my makeup into a traincase, so I bought the MALM dressing table to store it all.. I will update with new pics of my collection (which has more than doubled) in the next week or two... For now though, here is a pic of my vanity area.

I also love the title of your thread, it made me lol
Your collection looks FAB!!
I have a ? for you, I'm just trying to figure out what eyeshadow colors they are, I've been trying to read but I got confused. The 2nd picture, there is a closed 15-pan palette with a few depotted eyeshadows and 2 paints sitting on top of it. What are the names of the first three shadows? I have a feeling I probably already own them, but they look gorgeous!

[coachkitten]

What an amazing collection! You start was pretty similar to mine. I was looking for a good nude lip liner and a friend suggested MAC and that was it for me! I have been in love ever since!

Thanks! I just put my list in alphabetical order rather than in order of what's in the pics.. Sorry if it makes it hard to figure out what's what! But I'm glad you asked The 3 pro palette refills that are laying on top of the boxed palette are: Bronze, Tempting & Woodwinked (Next to to those are Naked Lunch, Swimming & Satellite Dreams..

Thanks So far I like it! The green gel cleanser feels really nice - doesn't make my skin too dry, but it still makes it feel fresh and clean..

My favourite MAC skin care product isn't in the picture, I forgot to take it out of the cupboard when i was getting everythign together. The MAC Purifying Toner for oily skin.. I absolutely love it! It's the nicest toner I've found so far...
