Yay glad you got WMS! So Vain is going to be so pretty in the summer although it didn't stop me from wearing it today! :)


After my haul on tuesday I just realised I have little to no more storage space for any more makeup :( I'm going to try and skip Tour De Fabulous and I'm going to try to choose between Force of Love lipstick or gloss from Chen Man - let's see if I stick with it! ;)

Tell me about it! I have run out of storage like a year ago, I have makeup stashed away in bags at the back of my wardrobe! Terrible really. I really don't need any more makeup and should stop buying it, but I just can't resist. I have just seen this picture of the new Chantecaille palette for spring and will definitely have to buy it. I see new stuff that I want literally every week (if not every day). *sigh*

^That Chantecaille palette looks

!

I have purposely been ignoring any MAC collections at the moment, I would love some things from Naturally but am pretending they don't exist
yes.gif


I did cave and buy NARS G-spot multiple the other day though. It's more of an autumn/winter colour, but as I'm moving back to the southern hemisphere in about 2 weeks I will be having winter all over again anyway! May as well make the most of it...

I am ashamed to admit that I, too, have makeup stashed in bags and boxes in my room. I have way more than I could ever use, but I just can't resist pretty colours. I'm trying hard to cut my wish lists down, though. I am planning on using my Boots points to buy some of the Maybelline Colour Tattoo pots when they finally launch here - not that I NEED them, but I WANT them.

^I think this is where all our problems start...!

I don't know how or where to store my lipglosses, I store some of my MAC glosses in a cute jar that I bought on sale from Laura Ashley and the rest are all in a Muji drawer but the problem is its getting very full to the point where I don't use all the lipglosses that I can't see which seems like a waste or I forget I had something cause I can't see it :/

I think I might have to get another Muji drawer but I already have 2 big ones and a smaller 3 drawer one that I got from Homebase and I really don't have the space for another :/

We should form Makeup Horders Anonymous, lol. :) I'll even confess to having two big bags of makeup in the attic (mostly back ups and pretty powders I can't bear to use). Anyone can beat that? ;)

I am constantly pulling things out of my stash that I don't want anymore and trying to sell them on eBay or my blog, but I don't want to just give them away because they're not cheap stuff. Besides, there isn't even anyone to give them to, because my mum doesn't wear makeup and my sister is also a horder and besides I've already given her lots of stuff, so I think my mum would throw me out if I turned up with yet another bag full off makeup for my sister, lol.

I would also love some more storage units, but like you Alisha, I just don't have the space to put it, the top of my chests of drawers are already full with several storage units and I have no more available surface. I already have stuff in sixteen (!) 2 litre icecream boxes under my chest of drawers, then some stuff in my clothes drawers, and then the rest in my wardrobe at the back behind my clothes so my hubby can't see how much is stashed in there. He knows I have a lot of makeup, but I don't think he's fully aware of just how much I have and especially how much I have spent on makeup over the last 4 years or so. Let's just say you could buy a very very nice car for it. I don't spend lots on clothes and expensive jewellery and I have no other hobbies, so I guess it's not too bad, and we're not poor, have no debts. But I am fully aware of how much I've spent and that money could be saved for my children, so I've set myself a monthly spending limit that I'm trying to stick to. So far not too well, but there were a lot of collections out in January, less so in February and hopefully nothing other than Mac in March.

I definitely need some kind of proper storage for mine, but I couldn't have anything see-through, as I just know my parents might see it one day and go absolutely ape! Mum already thinks I have a serious hoarding problem (other, non-makeup things) and keeps telling me I should get help.

I just can't bear to get rid of anything, and unfortunately my kids are just as bad (my son even collects empty soft-drink cans amongst other things)

I know I have a problem, but I don't like people (my parents) telling me I do.

At least I don't drink or smoke

Yes, exactly, I don't drink or smoke either and my children do have everything they need, so I guess it could be worse, eh? Oh and I used to collect empty soft drinks cans when I was a teenager, not obsessively, just for fun. :)

My son inspects every can carefully to see if there are any differences, no matter how slight, to ones he already has. If it's different, it comes home with us! I have to be careful not to knock the stacks over in his room.

Where are you going to, Anita? My sister lives in Australia and is enjoying summer in Brisbane right now

Makeup Hoarders Anonymous... love it!

Well, I am currently packing my moving boxes this weekend and my task this evening is to bubble wrap most of my makeup. Wishing I didn't have so much of it now, it would certainly make this job a lot quicker! Fortunately there's nothing stashed away in the attic or else I'd be up all night

You should see the size of my Soap & Glory stash, too! Don't think I'll need to buy any bath or body products for years.

Good luck with all the bubble-wrapping, Anita. It would be awful if your beautiful makeup got broken in transit

Thanks! I did break a couple of MAC shadows when flying once, hopefully history won't repeat itself!

I'm like that with my makeup! I used to keep all my makeup boxes but it got the point where I had no means of storage so I threw them all away except for a few Special packaging stuff which I can't bear to throw :)
