It's the same as spending your money on going to see a films or clubbing or whatever, it's what you want to spend your fun money on! at least make up will last me much longer than things like that and makes me feel good

luckily my hubby never asks how much i spend on cosmetics. as long as our bills are paid on time and we have enough going into savings each month he doesn't care. if anything he encourages me by picking out colours he thinks will look nice on me

i'm very lucky!

^ I'm in much the same boat. As long as we have money to pay our bills and rent, neither my bf nor I questions the other on discretionary spending. Plus, he'll make recommendations, usually good ones too, for make-up, clothes, etc.

Huh? First you post asking if this is even a collection because you haven't seen any info elsewhere, and then you say you haven't looked elsewhere?

Obviously we are all happy to answer questions, but don't really understand what it was you were after in this case.

I totally agree, Lou!

But even if - it would not be someone else's problem? Everyone has responsibility for himself.

well i guess school fees are slightly different. i still have a student loan from when i was at uni. to be honest that many people have student loans they are almost thought of as the norm now! the one thing i did do while at uni though was get a job. i went to lectures and seminars 4 days a week and worked at costa coffee the other 3 days. that way i didn't have as big loans as what my friends had - plus i had extra for mac and clothing!

I'm sort of in the same boat right now... I just graduated from law school and am about 100k in debt (all I can do is
lol.gif
because the thought of eventually paying back all that money is insane), but since I'm studying for the bar right now I can't work (I worked at a Victoria's Secret all through undergrad and law school, but during law school it was only one day a week)... but I keep buying MAC anyway.

My loan repayments haven't started yet. I'm not missing any bills... so is it really THAT bad?

If you weren't buying MAC, would that money go towards your loan repayments? My guess is that it wouldn't (but maybe I am just judging everyone else by how I work...) and then you might as well enjoy the makeup

I always say, people chooses to spend their money the way they like to. Just because others find buying cosmetics not appealing, it doesn't mean they have the right to give us a hard time.

I don't judge anybody's expenses/purchases. I'm not in a debt of any kind, I don't borrow money from anybody to finance my purchases, I pay all my bills on time and hubby and I are always sure to feed our savings account properly. I don't blame anybody for my own choices. I love make up and will continue getting it as long as I can afford to.
yes.gif


I have a special bank savings account with a debit card, that I call my "make up account". I only use what's in it for my cosmetics purchases.

I don't give anyone a hard time for his own choices, so stop giving me one!!!

As Susanne said "everyone has responsibility for himself"
