I think we've all been there once or twice.

I'll add buying a lipstick just because it's pretty and ignoring the fact that it makes me look like a corpse.

I have absolutely done that before
 

This might just happen to me tomorrow when Candy Yum Yum comes out!  I'll have to remember to swatch it first to make sure I'll actually wear it.

I sold a load of pigment vials from 2000-2006 on ebay for about a fiver. My mother kept giving them to me as christmas/birthday gifts, and I was never really that into makeup until a couple of years ago. I kicked myself when I started buying Mac and realised. :(

Uggghhh too many to count!!

But maybe you guys can stop me from making another.....can mineralized blushes be depotted and fit into the 6 pan palette or is this a HORRIBLE idea? I can just see me breaking some pretty eyeshadows. I heard blushes are harder to depot then eyeshadows and found this to be true when i did it a few months ago so i'm thinking the mineralized ones are not meant to be depotted.

Mmm, I never deppoted any but since the mineralized blushes have that dome I believe you won't be able to even close the palette? I mean, the other blushes are flat... but I might be completely wrong?

Oh very true! I didn't even think of that! Sounds like a bad idea all around!

They should warn people that neon pigments cannot be pressed! Once mixed with alcohol they become disgusting and sticky like a glue.

Here's my poor Magenta Madness... Fortunately I wasted only a little bit of it...

I bought 'Going Bananas' from the Dare To Wear collection, as I heard alot of people raving about it and I wanted a nice Yellow eyeshadow. But when it arrived I was so dissapointed. There was barely any pigmentation at all when I applied it after trying it with various bases I gave up and now it lays in my make up draw not doing anything. If im honest I loved the name more than anything

Oh my.. that sounds disastrous!

When sanitizing a lipstick I got from a swap, spraying hand sanitizer spray on it instead of the alcohol I have in the bottle next to it. Needless to say my LE Beachbound l/s is ruined seeing as it radiates that "chemical" smell now... don't even want to try using it because it smells that bad.

Purchasing 3-D lipglass.  What a rip.
