So finally I'm going to post a more recent collection pics, I got started really collecting in I think August of 08' and there is so much more I want (already planning out how I'm spending my $600+ birthday haul in August lol). I also ordered a bunch of stuff a day ago which I'll post the pictures on Friday when I get them lol.


(Updated): 08/22/10 I added a few new pictures of my pigment collection now and my vanity setup.


Here's what I started with back in the first month or so...I was so excited then lol.

, no idea what I'm going to do with the order I just placed as well as if the Gone but not Forgotten sends me the 5 Pigments I wanted to get.

I'll have to post a better picture tomorrow! I got into about an hour of pull everything out and realized I was getting tired of sitting there lol!

Is that the MALM dressing table from Ikea? I've been searching craig's list high and low for one of those babies.

Beautiful collection for about a year old. You must be a hardcore hauler.

Yep! The half sized version
smiles.gif
. I talked my parents into letting me pick up when we made a trip near Detroit, my father had to follow me around the store for an hour and a half! I had never been to an Ikea and it was so huge! They even gave a map out at the entrance lol. I think you can order this one off the Ikea site now since I know you can't get the large version online anymore

I tend to order way too much! My eyes have been sometimes bigger than my checking account lol. I should have more savings than I do but MAC is making me haul crazy with a new collection or two every month
ssad.gif
....wish there was a break inbetween so I could recoup all my funds.

Lately it's been worse because I want to get as many of the pigments as I can since those last forever and I've been calling around places just to find some of the older ones lol.

Wow I was so tired I over looked this comment. (or maybe it was the lack of wearing my glasses) lol, I totally would if we lived in the same area! It took me a good 2-3 hours I think to cut all the boxes out and tape them together. I need to get a set of drawers for the right side of the vanity too since I ran out of room and I need something to put my palettes in (it's dangerous to have them on the edge of my desk with my cats around lol.

I gave up alot of other things not pertaining to makeup for this collection.....like new clothes.....my bf....(well if you count him being angry I spent so much money on something he can't understand even though he collects video games lol), I also gave up trips to go anywhere. I'm such an addict
ssad.gif
....is there a makeup AA?

It's actually really not very big, I got the smaller version even though I wanted the bigger one because we only had the car to haul it home in and the large one wouldn't fit
ssad.gif
. It fits quite well in our spare room which also has two computer desks and an elliptical and the room isn't really huge or anything. The desk is really not very wide at all!

It's hard trying to figure out what to wear with my skin tone that won't look to crazy pigmented or off, the curse of having pale white skin. Although some lady at work told me I look like snow white lol, I guess it's the midnight black hair mixed with the pale white complexion. I love Moon River though it's one of my favorites I even bought my first backup of that one lol.
