thank you my mirror is a little croocked my brother was a tad bit intoxicated when hanging it not to mention its super heavy.

 

[Rosalie1915]

Nice collection : )

 

[RedRibbon]

Very nice.

I love the fact that you have a manageable collection

 

[Tat2dbeauty07]

I hope to expand it though I wonder where it will be at a year from now as you can see already half that stuff hasnt been used anything in a bix hasnt been used yet was only taken out for photos I dont discard boxes till I use a product. Im looking forward to some of the upcoming collections like style black I like smokie eyes so I love the cinderfella and youngpunk thats coming out and I look forward to holiday sets I got some more MAC I cant come scross cause its pry in the bottom of my purse like 2 black liners and a purple colored lip gele'e and a lip palette. I am commited to mac though I havent used any other makeups I think its because I know it works for me when I was younger I would wear cheap stuff and learned quickly that make up is an investment to your skin so I started buying the good stuff. My first ever MAC purchase was the posh it up lipgloss since then Ive bought 3 tubes my first shadows are pinks freeze and shale.

I had a hard time finding vanities too and if I did come across one it was nothing to my liking so I ended up going with a vintage desk since it was more spacious and hung a mirror above it.

I love the stenciling job and love that you did this with just an idea in your head that you liked the vanity. You got it ready way quicker than I expected and it turned out amazing. Maybe I need to be hiring you to do one for me. xD I love it and the flowers give it a very feminine edge that it didn't have before. I hope you see a lot of use with it or until your collection outgrows it....I'm sure you're working on that just as quick. =)

I got some grief about actually painting it. someone mentioned I destroyed an antique oh well if I did, I did it to my liking. Im one of those people when I want something I want it now so I felt like it took me forever to re-do it. It took about a week 1 day to sand I primered 1 day and painted the drawers the same day I primered then I painted the desk its self the following day let dry stenciled the top let it dry over night even though its suppost to taked 48hrs to dry stenciled one side the next morning flipped it over that night stenciled the other. next day my brother clear coated it for me I found a chair in the trash painted it and had it in my room by that sunday it still actually reaks of paint when Im sitting their doing my makeup but eventually the odor will go away.

You should deffinently get one they are fun to do that was my first time stenciling I pry would of done a better job if I wasnt on a budget. I would of liked to did my flowers like a darker pink fading intothe light pink but I went to the craftstore with 10.00 and that bought my pink and green paint stencil and adheisive.

Yes my collection seems to be growing all the time. Im going for the style black even saturday and can't wait my friend doesnt redeem her empties so saves them for me so with mine and her empties I got 48 they only let you redeem 24 at a time so luckily I have a friend going with me so shes going to redeem some for me and as a favor for doing it for me I told her id let her have 6 of the empties for the young punk shadow she wants.

Heres what I plan on getting out of B2M

Cinderfella
Young punk x2
Earthy Riches MES
Family Silver MES
Sugarrimmed Dazzleglass
Local Colour Dazzleglass
Marbelized Lipgloss Pretty Pattern

What I plan on purchasing
Nocturnelle (might wait on more empties)
C-Thru (might wait on more empties)
Im tossed between buying either the volcani ash or the asphalt flower fragrance Im on a budget
Bare Study paint pot for sure!!!

My friend is getting her first Makeover shes excited Im excited for her she doesnt wear make up often but loves my MAC I did her make up the other day well labor day and I think it was a confidence booster for her I did a smokey eye for her and used c-thru and night affair on her lips a dark lower eyeline curled her lashes and added some mascara x she was so happy and when she showed her husband you could tell he was pleased.
