Hi All who read this

I am new to spektra and finally figured out the registration process properly today. I am currently addicted to reading about makeup and dreaming about what I want to get. Alas I am living in a remote area far away from a makeup counter which means I can't actually see in person or try things out.

I only started wearing makeup again about a year ago. (I'm in my late 20's) I had stopped during college, I was too busy, and on a very strict budget... and at some point I just stopped caring. I was never going to be attractive so why bother trying. But something finally clicked a year and a half ago and I went and got my face done at the body shop. The way it 'picked me up' amazed me and I've been hooked on make up and accessories since. Though I don't own a lot as I like to try things on first and usually do my best to excercise self control when in the vicinities of botiques.

I bought my first ever (and only) MAC shadows this summer. The MA at The Bay, who put the look together for me was a dear, I had so much fun I was on vacation and relaxing so I didn't mind it being a walk in. I almost wish I could go see that particular MA again, because she was absolutely amazing! Heck, I just wish I lived within range of a counter, I would definately go in person to see ANY MA because I can use all the makeup help I can get!

Anyways its made me into reading about and researching MAC products and drooling over the potential things have.

hi. My name is michelle & I'm new here,too. I was just reading about u living far away from a makeup counter. I think that would be very hard. I wanted to share this book I just found out about. It called making faces by kevin auccion. I don't know if I'm spelling that right. But it under 25$. & I honk it's the next best thing to having an actual makeup artist.

Lunaminky - I think that it keeps me out of trouble at times. LOL And it lets me go shopping spree style when I finally get near a city (which is once or twice a year) . Save up and then let self control out the window. I've been meaning to get that book, I may have to get that as a fall present for myself
