Hello from North Texas!

I've been lurking for a couple of months and decided it was just time to join in the conversations!

I'm in my early 30s and getting back into makeup after a long time of not wearing much more than primer, foundation, powder and lip gloss. But my addiction to Sephora finally led me to Urban Decay shadows and I fell in love with color again. (And discovered why eye makeup used to just melt off before -- no primer!)

And I'm new to MAC! And wondering how I ever missed this (used Lancome for years before discovering Sephora after I moved to Texas). But apparently MAC only had one counter (at a mall no one ever went to) in the state I'm originally from.

So I'm building a collection, which is expensive, but fun.

And Specktra has been so much help in deciding what not to get. And, well, things I would never have considered (hello, MSF!).

I'm sure my boyfriend now wishes he never bought me the two (fake) MAC lip glosses from a co-worker who allegedly bought stuff "wholesale" to sell for the holidays. (Something seemed fishy about the lack of shade names on the packaging. One Google search later, and I discovered Specktra and then wanted to try the "real thing.")

But he enables me by financing hauls every month or so, so I guess he doesn't mind too much.
