    MAC $ each month

    I was wondering, how much money do you girls spend each month on MAC? Or even a year? (This way I don't feel so bad about how much I spend lol - maybe I'll even tell hubby "see hon my addiction isn't THAT bad; I'm certainly not the only one). As for me it usually varies by how good a current...

    Returning a product back to MAC

    So I want to return back an eyeshadow tomorrow - but I've never returned a product back to MAC (I'm a little nerveous about it as well) So my hubby went to MAC today (while I was at home watching movies) and got me 4 eyeshadows that he was pretty sure I didn't have. I got really excited when...

    Why Collect Full Sized Pigments?

    I am genuinely curious about this. Why would one collect full sized pigments (Some people have over a hundred - that is certainly impressive!) instead of just buying the cheaper pigment samples. I bought some pigment samples 8 months ago and I use them quite regularly, and I STILL have so much...

    Neutral Eyeshadow Combinations

    I usually like colourful and dramatic eye makeup (it always puts me in a good mood lol) but lately I've been wanting to learn how to do a natural look using neutral eyeshadow colours. I'm obviously having a hard time with this. The only one that I like so far is woodwinked over the lid with...

    MAC and your significant other

    How does your significant other feel about your MAC collection & obsession? Is he/she supportive, confused about why you like makeup so much, oblivious to the whole thing, or dissapointed? My hubby loves the fact that I have a new hobby now (now I spend less time bugging him and more time...

    What Collections Have You Passed Up?

    So far this year what collections have you passed up? For me, it's been: BBR - I was a MAC newbie and felt intimidated by the size of this collection. I was also more focused on getting the basics such as paint pots and neutral eyeshadows, rather than LE items. Hello Kitty - didn't really...

    Do I Need a Face Primer?

    I've been hearing a lot about face primers and I was just wondering if I really need one? I've never used one before so I feel like I don't need it, but if it will really make my foundation stay on my face longer, maybe I'll give it a try. I'm curious about what else primers are used for. What...

    Newbie from Washington

    Hi guys! To tell you a little about myself: I'm your typical 24 year old college student from Washington. I've always been interested in fashion, beauty, hair, and makeup - unfortunately, I'm not the best at it. My mom is a tomboy so she never taught me how to properly apply makeup and dress...
