What does your man say about your mac addiction??

MACHOMULA

Well-known member
My man thinks I have gone off the deep end. He loves me and doesn't make me feel stupid or anything, but he can't understand why I have to have it all!! Not to mention he couldn't even imagine how much I spend on it. I've resorted to all sorts of sneaky measures to hide my MAC spending habits from him. Just wondering how ya'lls men handle your need for MAC.

Yeah mine is pretty much the same way, but he equates it to his obsession with computer stuff. And that costs a lot more than makeup haha!

My bf supports my addiction, and always gets me MAC/Sephora for my birthday, Christmas, Valentine's, anniversaries, etc... He does think I'm crazy for trying to get everything from collections.

As far as the money... He knows how much it costs, but my parents don't... If they realized how many HUNDREDS of dollars I have in makeup, I think they'd flip out!

My husband is bemused by the fuss over MAC. And I admit to sometimes "rounding down" when I mention how much things cost.

My boyfriend is both entertained and horrified, I think.

He footed the bill for an xmas MAC spree, so I know he at least accepts my crazy addiction...but he did make the mistake of saying "Honey, it's only makeup!" to me.
(He made that little quip after I yelled at him for trying to shove my Malibu Barbie lipglass through his stretched earlobe. Um, hi, I don't want your ear funk on my LE lipglass, nevermind how amazing that it fits through there...)
LOL.

My bf calls me a makeup whore (in good fun). He always jokes around with me about my love for makeup, but he supports it too, because he knows I want to become a MA

Haha my guy doesn't understand. He definitely knows how much it costs... but he loves that I do my makeup well and now notices when other ladies do not. He usually tells me "but there will be another amazing blush and your habit will never end!" - which is probably true, but who said I want it to end?

I think all in all he thinks it's part of what makes me me.

My bf supports my MAC addiction. He's actually begun bribing me with MAC to get stuff that he wants. Honey...I'll get you that shiny green one if you let me.......

My husband is great about it...Every month (every time a new collection comes out) we head out to the Westfarms mall about an hour away, so I can check things out...The MA's are always saying "You have an *amaaazing* husband...you're so lucky..." I know it's true. The other week when i was checking out the MACY's MAC counter, a girl walking by with her boyfriend tried stopping just to look at stuff (she looked very 'put together', so I'm assuming she likes makeup), and her BF literally grabbed her by the arm and dragged her away!! She wasn't even allowed to stop and LOOK!

This Christmas (the first that I've really been into MAC), Matthew got me a whole buttload of makeup! Sometimes I feel sorry for him; I know MAC and Sephora are hot, crowded, and claustrophobic, but Matthew never fails to not only accompany me there, but help me pick out products as well!! I spend whatever I want. Yeah, he's a good guy (sigh)

He's a horrible, horrible enabler. He tacks doubles of hot LE items onto my orders 'just in case' and says things like 'you're just getting it for your kit? That's no fun' and asks the SA to get another unit.

I have a cupboard full of old LE items that I'll never use, all thanks to him and his lack of restraint (and my matching lack of willpower).

I just recently allowed my husband to know how much I've spent purchasing MAC makeup. He hasn't said anything as of yet, but I'm waiting for it to happen. I don't always let him know when I make a purchase, or how excited I get when new collections come out.

I hope he never asks me to quit buying MAC!

My husband doesn't mind at all. He likes that I have an interest and that I take pride in how I look. He did buy me some stuff for my birthday last year, but he doesn't buy it for me normally. We have completely seperate accounts, so I don't think he knows how much I really spend! Oh well, I did buy his mom and sister MAC for their birthdays, so at least I'm sharing my addiction with the women in his life!

My SO thinks it's silly but he's a big computer nerd and I make fun of his addiction so we call it even.

My husband would buy me MAC, if he could beat me to the counter!

He thinks my application has completely improved, especially my eye contouring, and loves when I wear Moth Brown - not only loves it, recognizes it!

He always checks my blush carefully each morning - he hates a harsh line, and ensures that I fade it out properly. How cute is that?

Yes, does anyone elses boyfriend/DH/SO play the "guess the eyeshadow color" game? Everytime I pull some out, we go to the counter or I put something on... he's like "Beauty Marked!" or "Honeylust!" - I dunno... I just think it's adorable =)

yep, same here. Although I think he's noticed how much of my MAC collection has been growing lately, lol!

I have a funny story to tell, my DH was at happy hour with his co-workers one Friday night, he walked over to the bartender to get a round of drinks, and then started to talk to some random guy next to him.

So my DH goes on to the guy about how I've just been addicted to MU lately, how I just dumped him at the bar (I was the DD, and I was at MAC picking up Danse backups) and the guy looks at him and goes, "let me guess... MAC?"

LMAO!!!
