What do you have backups of & How Many?? - Page 7

I only buy multiples of L/S and Glass, just because I like to have one on my purse for touchups. 

I get a strange joy out of the hunt for a replacement. I'm clearly SICK! 

I was going to post but some of these are out of site--gotta bow down

Nothing! Except maybe UD's sin which happens to be in two of my palettes, and Club which happened accidentaly by getting a photo realism quad where two of the colors were substituted with nylon and club, and I already had club. And when I get the cham-pale quad I will have two retrospeck, pretty color but I'm unsure if I will sell one off or not.

My B/up list:

• Madly Magenta pigment (1)
• Marine Life high light powder (2)
• Hodgepodge l/l (1)
• Currant l/l (1)
• Feline Kohl Power e/l (1)
• Sweet & Punchy e/s (1)
• Femme Noir e/s (1)
• Lightscapade msf (1)
• So Ceylon msf (1)
• Petticoat msf (1)
• Stereo Rose msf (1)
• Brunette msf (1)
• Earthshine msf (1)
• Warm Blend msf (1)

I try hard not to back things up because something new and better usually always comes along, IMO, but sometimes it just can't be helped.     Currently, I have:

• Mystery Kohl Power (2, L/E)
• Plum Soft Cremestick Lipliner (2, D/C)
• Undercurrent Pearlglide Intense Liner (2, *used to be* L/E)

I've got no BU so far..hm.. maybe one day, if I really like something :)

My backup list. I have only 1 backup of each, that's as much I will allow myself to have, haha!

- Coco pigment

- Blue/Brown pigment petite (just because it was SO FREAKING HARD to find)

- Ever Hip l/s (original release)

Eyeshadows:

- Waternymph

- French Grey

- Mothbrown (original and Barbie)

- Atlas

- Putty

- Flirty Number

- Smoke & Diamonds

- Hocus Pocus

- Olive Groove

- Aria (my first ever MAC shadow!)

- Bark

- Guacamole (original)

- Jealousy Wakes

- Relaxing

- Pink Cult blush

- Lightscapade MSF

At one point I had two Perverted Pearl quads, but I sold one of them when I realized that I will never finish that quad in my lifetime. I don't like to back up lipsticks because I have a fear of the backup going bad before I get the chance to use it. I loved Ever Hip so much I had to get two, though, and I've already made a sizeable dent in my first tube. And I think the only lipglass I would ever back up is Flash of Flesh. LOVE.

Nothing.

Looking at my small collection, I think it's funny that I have a back up of anything.

- MAC Too Chic Beauty Powder x1

- GOSH Soft 'n Shine Lip Balm in "Perfect Plum" --> I discovered these after they were discontinued and jumped on PP when I spotted it. The thing is... I'm not really a lippie person so I might return my backup!

Now I have a first ever backup of MAC innocence lipstick but that's about it.. I know I will get a lot of use out of it, considering it's my go to lipstick now, that's why I got it))

I have changed my stance on this unfortunately.

I bought an extra 2 Forever Marilyn BP's and 1 extra GlamourDaze lipstick and 1 Strada blush backup.

In saying that, I'll use it all and that'll be the end of them.  I have to REALLY love it and know I'll use it often to justify a BU.

I don't have any backups of make up.  I only keep a backup of hair spray because its only sold at one place in Dallas.

I try not to backup a lot, but if I really like a product, then I definitely need a BU of it. My backups currently:

Earthshine MSF

Hot Chocolate l/s (I had 2 bu's, but gave one away)

Rocker l/s

Silver Birch MES

Superb MSF

Those are my tried and true products.

I had a backup of Ruffian Red and a few other l/e lipsticks that I never wore so I gave them away or sold them. There are some products that I love, then when I see dupes for it, I almost always sell it and buy the cheaper/perm item.

I NEVER back up blushes or lip glosses because I know I'll never get through them, but I do love them :)

I've never found a LE product I think I am going to need way more of so I have never had a backup of anything!

I have one back up for each of these:

- Pink Pigeon

- Party Parrot

- Runaway Red

- Deeply Adored

- FM beautypowder

ETA: Lovecloud blush

Lightscapade x5

Stereo Rose x2 (the 2nd one is on its way to me)

Cloudy Afternoon x2

VG Gaga1 x2

Pink Cult x2

Play It Proper x2

I think that's it. I had BUs of Flamingo, Watch Me Simmer, Innocence Beware, Modern Mandarin and Snowglobe BP, but sold/swapped them. I would buy more BUs of the following, if I found them for retail or cheaper: Cloudy Afternoon, Snow Season, Hang Loose and Lightscapade.

And do multiple brushes count? I have two of the 217 and 239 each.

I have a lot of backup for urban decay primer potion for my oily eye lids. I have about 6 of the old school ones.
