I am so glad I didn't sell my Artifact P/P. I had it up for sale last year & no takers, so I am glad for that one!

I am so pooped, I just got back from San Fran. My dad takes me every year for SEMICON, it's a semiconductor convention. Not the most interesting place to be, but I like to learn about the family biz! I wore the perfect shirt for the convention, Hello Kitty that's wearing dorky tapped glasses & it says "talk nerdy to me" Boy, I got a lot of looks! Plus with my bleach blonde hair & fully done makeup I stood out like a sore thumb!

We had a amazing dinner at the 5Th Floor restaurant. 9 course tasting menu & 2 amazing bottles of Turley Zin wine! Needless to say, I felt it this morning!

I am thinking more and more about Crystal Pink. I think it will be the one thing I will regret not getting from this collection but everytime I have seen it in person I have walked away from it.

I JUST GOT BACK FROM MY THIRD TRIP TO MAC SINCE THIS COLLECTION CAME OUT!!!! I cannot believe there was ever a day when I thought I could pass any of it up, since now I own every single MES (besides Quartz Fusion), and today I bought back ups of Golden Gaze and Smoked Ruby....Also Pressed Amber and TWO Pearl MSFs, Gem of Roses Lipstick and Geo Pink Cremesheen....and ALL the brushes! I refuse to do the math in my head to see how much I have really spent, and the crazy part is.....I don't even feel like I am done yet! Like maybe I should just throw in the towel and buy the entire collection so I can stop obsessing over it!

Does anybody else feel like they have completely lost their mind over this collection too?
I am 100% certifiable. I think it's the fact that there are so many different versions of each item that is driving me bonkers.....like I should go and buy 5 of each so that I have every possible variation and color story of every single item, especially when it comes to Jade's Fortune, Unsurpassable, Mineral Mode and the MSFs.

Seriously people, I wake up in the middle of the night thinking about it!!!!
Somebody talk me down!

LOL, I know what you mean ahoythere. I too got quite a few BU's of Goldstone MSF, Pearl MSF & Pressed Amber MB. I made sure I got the best Jades Fortune & Clarity that the counter had. I do want to go back & look at the other Unsurpassables, I wasn't able to go threw them, since I was in a rush. But I told the MA to get the best looking one from all the ones they had. I wasn't even going to get it, but when I went to get Gem of Roses that I had placed on hold, it was just screaming at me to swatch it & buy it!
I still haven't tried the 234 brush I bought, but tomorrow night I will when I get dolled up for Mike to take me out.
I do wish I got my BU's of GS & Pearl at the counter instead of buying online, but I have my fingers & toes crossed that I am getting good sized nipples in them.

I think I am officially done though, I can't stress over possibly getting a better veined Unsurpassable. Mines gorgeous enough!

Lou - Thanks love, I wish I had my dad take a picture. But I will take on of the shirt! It's SOOO cute! I am so glad Mike bought it for me, he knows I am OBSESSED with Hello Kitty & My Little Pony.

I am such a 5-year-old, but crap, it's okay right?

I have officially lost my mind with it!!! I love so much of it. The only absolute No way items for me were Smoked Ruby, Blue Sheen, Goldstone, and most of the lip stuff. The eyeshadows Rose Quartz and Pearl are Oh my heck delicious. I am debating Jade's Fortune since I already have Unsurpassible and Clarity and Crystal Pink.

You're not crazy. Or maybe your are but I am too. :) I'm seriously considering going back for another Unsurpassable because the one I got is mostly gold and only has a little green and blue and I want one with loads of green and blue. I'm happy with my Jade's Fortune, but not my Unsurpassable. It is nice, but I bet it could be nicer. (I also got all the MES and MSFs and 2 blushes, plus Gem of Roses for the record.)

I'm nearly around £300 now with the addition of FG and Pearl, I'm missing a couple of MES but don't want them as I know I wouldn't wear them an awful lot. I have definitely gone mineral mad!! Eta: grrrrr, this site hates my iPad :(

I think if I can find a yellow and blue Jade's Fortune that has minimal black that I will get it tomorrow. I have never been this into any other collection ever!

There seem to be quite a few yellow JF, but the blue veining is difficult to find - at least where I live. Good luck hunting them down, it can be exciting!
