Me too !!!!!! I love Elegant !!!!!! That is why I am leaning towards the Amani lipstick vs the gloss in their holiday 2014 collection. Since it appears in the gloss it is red instead of burgundy. I love a good red too, but burgundy, and the more vamp the better !!!!! I loved Dior Black Tie !!!!! Take the gloss over a black lipstick and you have super cool !!!!!! Have you broken the seal on the eye quad????
I'll have to check Armani out, even though I'm feeling lipstick overload. I have Black Tie # 987 right? What I need
to do is revisit some of the amazing products that I already have. Speaking of dark lippies, what do you think of
Chanel Foudroyante # 148?

I have broken the seal on my Chanel Rêve D' Orient and I hope to wear it one day next week for a week of smokey
eye looks, if that's the one you're referring to. I have gotten four new e/s palettes within the past 2 weeks or so
and haven't yet delved into them. I could use a second head.

that is why you wash your face and have a second for the afternoon or evening !!!!! How do you keep your goodies ??? I have mine very organized. I use a acrylic stack of drawers. Each drawer for a brand, or certain product. Heck, it keeps it simple and I don't need to go digging.

I rotate my lipsticks for the season. I just put away the summer ones, and pulled out the winter. Yes, I even purge. Sometimes I regret what I toss or give away. Other times I look at these items and wonder what drugs I was on or if my invisible twin or better yet my older brother had secretly ordered these items.....to this day I can't part with the Chanel quad Euphoria. I know the formula has come a long way. But this came out when I was in high school, super edgy at the time.

I was just looking at the MAC Aquatic lipstick, the two super pale ones. Ugh, just comes to mind....I still have from my mom the lipstick in red #5 and Metal Garnet. They are super old, but I just love #5 red.

I haven't tried my BD yet. Am waiting til Halloween to do my whole face up. As much as I love makeup, I rarely make my whole face up in recent months. Done got too lazy. LOL! But I always have on at least lipstick and mascara.

But got to do it up for All Hallows Eve. ;)

I usually make sure to exfoliate and keep my lips hydrated the night before so hopefully my Black Dahlia will apply nicely.

smile, you woke up, and everything will be good. Even in the most yucky stuff life throws at you, there is always a positive to be found. Might take years to find the positive, but it is there :=)

I could probably find every specific product in my collection blindfolded, and without fumbling, lol. I use a mixture of acrylic drawers and three little six drawer chests from ikea. I forgot what they are called. I put a mixture of new eyeshadows, and old ones I want to be sure and use in a tray on my vanity, and I rotate them out. I do the same with blushes. I need to find a better system for lipsticks. Right now I tend to wear whatever is new. I'm pretty good about using different highlighters and contour products, so I haven't had to regulate that yet, lol. I also purge all the time. If I don't see myself reaching for it, I ditch it. I'm kind of relentless. I get overwhelmed if I have too much stuff (my idea of "too much" is about 100 times a "normal" person's idea of too much though). I've really been working on not duping shades, and only buying things I really really want, because I get caught up in the hype and excitement way too easily. The problem is that there are still a lot of things I really want

I am so happy, I am not the only OCD with my goodies!!!!! Tom Ford has just arrived, lets see if it is all that and then some !!!!! I have about 150 bottles of nail polish. My father just moans.....of course I have it grouped to the collection it was released as. I have a six drawer then a three drawer and some trays. Then my nail polish is on racks in another room. Since when I was little I got my butt kicked when I spilled a bottle of nail polish remover over the antique dresser. My brother the narc....I got him back. Told the P's he was kissing a girl in the living room, pay back is at times so sweet. Lipsticks are grouped in the hues and values and by brands. My brother when he comes home mixes them all up. Just to watch me go nuts.....thankful he live in ATL. But he still puts the peas over my mash poatoes.....ugh, older brothers.....so I short sheeted his bed and sprayed the sheets with TF Black Orchid. It smelled like an Egyptian hooker :=)
