Okay, so, I finally decided to post my collection pictures—labeled just for you. Let me just say, the pictures are so out of date now (they were taken a few months ago) that half the stuff I have is listed here as “not pictured.” Oh, well. I am never taking collection pictures again! I thought it might be a fun project but um, no. It took about two hours to type everything up, about ten or so to set the products up and take pictures, and then a couple more hours for editing because, despite going all out and using a flash umbrella and an SLR, most of the pictures were too dark because I suck.
Before I get any “OMG, YOU FREAK” comments, I do not depot my shadows and I never will. So please, save your breath.
I do not want to carry around palettes or spend time putting together quads every morning. They are small, compact and cute the way they are, kthx.
My collection is not what I would call “large,” especially compared to the majority of collections I see posted here (hel-lo, MAC_Whore’s collection!). But I have only been collecting MAC for a short period of time, and there are certain things I do not use often so therefore I do not have many (face products, Lipglasses). I wanted to do a money shot with all of it laid out together like Laura/lilviolingrrl did for her collection, but it would have been too much work to organize it all again. Hah. The good thing is, everything in my collection gets good use. Or at least, most of it. I do not buy for the sake of collecting; I buy to wear. After all, it is make-up. Collecting it for the sake of collecting never made much sense to me!
I have included a couple of my other make-up brand collections but I was too tired of this whole project to include everything. I left out brushes, back-ups, nail polishes (I have a billion), drugstore stuff, NARS, other glitters, cosmetic bags, storage (traincase, drawers), and some other things… so this is mostly ‘my MAC collection.’
Anyway, enough babble. On to the MAC porn! Questions and comments welcome.

I call this my "Personalized MAC Pigment/Glitter Rack."
I have an extremely handy grandfather, Doug, and I approached him in the summer about making me a customized pigment rack. I had searched high and low for one to buy, on eBay and otherwise, but nothing suited my needs (or my wallet). They were either too big or too small, too ugly or too cheap. Since I knew Doug, a woodworker, had made tons of furniture for my family members over the years, I figured a pigment rack would not be out of his range. Of course, he had no idea what the hell a pigment was but he was very willing to make it for me. I wanted something high-quality, sturdy, easily accessible, and something that could withstand my day-to-day use. I wanted to be able to see each pigment colour as well. I gave him a rough blueprint and he ran with it. He measured the cut-outs with an actual pigment jar and I asked for additional spots so that my collection could grow and still fit into the unit.
In the pictures, it is not hanging, but it has two hooks so that you can be mounted on a wall. The doors are frosted glass with wood behind, but that is also hard to see in the pictures. I have my glitters on the left panel and any vials I have sit in the pockets on the right, with all of my regular and PRO pigments in the middle. Because it is all wood (I think pine), it is extremely sturdy. It is by far the best part of my make-up collection. I am a huge pigment and glitter collector, and I really needed something customized for this obsession of mine. My grandfather was able to turn the blueprint into a dream come true and I will never be able to repay him. I am so happy with it and it is so much easier picking colours out in the morning now. Before it was a mess because I had so many that I ran out of space for them, and they ended up in Ziploc bags. It took forever to find anything! This solved all of my storage problems. You can even turn the pigments upside down if you rather the label side than going by colour.
