I know, right? What is wrong with me?! I need more UK makeup obsessed girls in my life, the problem is the enabling!
I took a good hard look at FF swatches and to be perfectly honest I only want Ever Hip l/s - when I realised Free To Be and Lucky Green e/s are permanent I didn't see the need in getting them specifically with this collection - the other ones don't catch my eye at all! Problem is I know how quick Ever Hip will sell out, so I need to have the money set aside to snatch it up immediately!
Honestly I have no idea how I'm gonna keep going through this. If I don't find a job soon I'm gonna be flat broke forever and yet I still keep making MAC orders! Lord help my bank account! Haha - I got the Posie-tint, High Beam and Bene-tint with Glamour! I'd wanted to try all 3 but refuse to spend even more money on Benefit for full size. Especially considering I'm not keen on Benefit packaging. I like the sleekness of MAC. I need to stop shopping, but I can't. I have a list of things. My goal is every permanent MAC eyeshadow, and then whatever I want from collections. How is one supposed to do that with no job? I need to move city - this one has nothing lol.

Fashion Flower is launching on the 7th of July hereI know what you mean about makeup making you poor trust me I haven't bought any for about 3-4 weeks! All I've purchased is Benefit Posie-tint which came free with Glamour!

You know, I have to say after reading this... I'm glad I'm not into harder drugs yet (Chanel, etc). This MAC crack is good enough for me for now, haha.

^I always tried to avoid Chanel mostly because its a brand I can't afford to be into but the damn summer collection got me! Plus there are loads of things I want to try from the perm range!

I hear that! Pixiwoo and Lou keep making me want to try the Chanel loose powder.. I *have* to resist. I can't afford it, I really can't. I really wish I could but I may save up for it, however I refuse to look at anything else at all until I get a job unless it's MAC or cheaper, lol!

The Chanel foundation I got is the best I ever tried, I have dry skin and all foundations flake out on me, and powder?!!! Forget it! With vital lumiere I can dust my face in my guerlain meteorites and I still don't look dry, I'm in love!

How do I not know about Debenhams and point systems? I may have to look into this, points = money off right? I do love money off! Haha!

Another offer from e.l.f. I should imagine it's hard to spend £20 there, though, with everything being so cheap

Thanks for this info, I didnt even know they sold MAC!!
I'm not sure if this is allowed but I have a Benefit Posie Tint and 2 Jemma Kidd High-Shine Silk Touch Lip Glosses in 17 Petal and 08 Fuchsia all unused that were free on Magazines but are not my colours. I can send them to anyone who wants them as they will only end up in the bin otherwise

I agree, I don't get on well with PosieTint, and I have a big bottle of it. Must sell it actually, free listing day on eBay!
P.S. I can't believe I paid £24.50 for it!

woah!! i had no idea it was that expensive!! jeez! get it on ebay quick! i can't help but think benefit products are always over priced. that prrrowl glitter mascara gloss thing for example. in stores it is like £17 but i got mine from ebay for £10. honestly i don't even think it is worth £10 because to me the glitters are not that shimmery! boo!

I have to agree on the Benefit products - I got 3 samples free from Glamour mag this month but I would never in a million years pay full price for them. I've only swatched them thus far and as pretty as they are, I'm sorry, but I can't afford that kind of thing and I also don't like the packaging for most of their stuff. I realise a lot of girls like "cute" packaging, personally I don't. I love the sleek black packaging of MAC, it looks professional - not like a childs makeup kit. I have to admit I don't even like the Surf Baby packaging from MAC, I wish I could have gotten it in original packaging.. I'd have resisted if the colours weren't so gorgeous.
As for Debenhams, when I go into town this week I think I'll pick one up. I guess I'll start ordering from them too unless it's for getting a collection quicker, the point system seems like a good idea to me, is it just me though or do they not have the full MAC perm eye shadow range? That's a tad annoying, I have to say, lol.
I decided for the heck of it last night to look up jobs on makeup counters in my area - only one at Clinique in Boots - I'd apply for it if it was more than 7hrs a week. Blah! NEED JOB! Lol

I thought that as well, also when you click the colours you dont get to see them enlarged so you end up on the MAC site anyway!
If you're looking for a job www.jobsite.co.uk upload your CV and agencies will start calling you for jobs.

I have to layer it to make it show on my cheeks which is so annoying! I wanted to try Bene-tint first but the newsagents I went to never had it - I would never pay full price for this although I've been dying to try the Cha Cha Tint since I read the first review!
