Oooh you actually have it by season and then collection? Very impressive! I wear make-up out of season very often though, so I am thinking of doing it by color, like my nail polish. I have my nail polish nicely organized in a Helmer. My red drawer starts with the darkest reds at the back, moving to lighter reds in the front, etc. I think it would work for MAC too, because I normally decide what colors I'm in the mood to wear and then go hunt for them.I

I wound up doing it by season for lip products first, because I just had too many colors that I can only wear at certain times of the year or they're not at their most flattering with my skin. Then I started adding in some face and eye products too, just for ease of use. I have one traincase with all my basics and daily needs, plus all my best colors that I'm using a lot for the time of the year for eyes and face, plus a lipstick tray with all my seasonal lipsticks/glosses. Stuff from other seasons and more specialty stuff I'd only use for going out at night, etc. I keep tucked out of the way until they're being called up for service.

I used to do it all by color when I was younger, but nowadays, if I'm not using just the right shades for the light quality and what my skin's up to, I feel like I risk looking overdone or aging myself. I look forward to the days when I am 100% unequivocally OLD, so I don't need to bother with using makeup half for color and fun and half for anti-age tricks - by then, I'll be able to go back to All Fun All the Time!

Yeah, there are times that I look at my makeup collection and go "Grace, this is ridiculous."
But then I remember how much I love EVERYTHING that I own, and it makes me happy. Everyone's gotta have a hobby right? :p

Seeing as I'd never heard of Ruffian before, the name does nothing for me. Same with Beth Ditto.

In fact, since ruffian means a violent person, I don't find it a very attractive name.

I used to have one drawer of my dresser for makeup and there was a lot of empty space... now two are full! I think that as long as we are having fun (and I know I am lol) then who's to judge? I love everything I have and sell what I don't use anyway.

You're right - I'm not into fashion. I'm not into modern music either. I like 50s style clothing (always have, despite not being born until the 60s) and 50s music, as well as music for bellydancing and ballet music.

I don't follow fashion, music or celebs. I think I was born in the wrong decade lol.
