Day 2: Viva Glam VI

 

[Ajigglin]

I'm assessing my progress this year and I'm not happy, so I've taken some steps. I've unsubscribed from every upcoming collection thread so I don't get tempted. The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. I've also tossed out my saved searches on eBay. Even if I find something below retail, that's still money leaving my pockets. This is only the first quarter, so I have three quarters to make up for this one. I also downloaded that habit streak app. Thanks to whomever brought that up.

Because I'm wearing minimal makeup my 'lipstick' for today is Burt's Bees Tinted Lipbalm Pink Blossom which is my favourite tinted lipbalm ever. I would like to get some more colours as I only have another Pink Blossom and Rose but I will wait until I'll have finished some other lipsticks or so.

To avoid repeats I have a separate bag, i pull from the bag filled with lipsticks , use it and at the end of the day I drop in worn lippie bag so I can't repeat it. Plus I have a list in my notebook numbered for each day.

I have pulled 30 neglected shades out and I'm gonna put then away after use. I'm trying to use just MAC too, we shall see how long that lasts lol. I've also been wearing green eyeliner everyday due to the month of ST Patricks Day. Hopefully I can finish off my Clinique ivy quickliner but it's day 13 I'm I'm sooooo bored of green already lol

 

[Starlight77]

Day 1: Urban Decay Native Day 2: MAC Feed The Senses Day 3: MAC Plumful

I'm doing the opposite, I tend to turn to my Mac most often, so I am trying to do at least 15 non-Mac shades. Today - Clarins Joli Rouge Brilliant in Sweet Plum.

Oh pretty choice. Yeah my Mac only won't last long as they are mostly all the same shade of pink (or berry) LOL maybe this is a wake call to stop buying mid tone pinks lol. I'm trying to wear any color but that at moment.

This 30 Lippies in 30 Days thing sounds great to me. I've recently inventoried my stash and pulled some lipsticks that I used to love and some that need to get worn.I'm not just sticking to MAC for this. I have a few UD lippies and other random brands that I would like to get to. I'm a bit behind the rest of you so...

Day 1: MAC Lady Danger
Day 2: MAC Hot Chocolate

I haven't done so well this year so far but I am happy to see none of the new collections are interesting me until the summer one in May.

Anyone else finding it easy to pass up on MAC in April?

Me. It's nearly ridiculously easy. I decided to use a part of my monthly budget for cosmetics for some higher end skincare items.

Day 3 Talk that Talk lip liner with YSL glossy stain Violene out of control! It's quite chilly in NYC ! This challenge helped to realize how much lipstick I have , 30 in bag separate from this rest barely made a dent!

 

[kerry-jane88]

My vanity. Posting to remind myself how much crap has taken over! Im doing well on my use it up march goals so im looking forward to sharing that progress at the end of the month. Pulled 5 eyeliners out last night, every week something goes!

Love your palette! How did you get it for just $12? Also, what is the middle one in the 2nd row from the top on the left side?

1. A friend of mine works for Lufthansa, her latest trip was to Denver and she went to the MAC Store at Cherry Creek Mall for me. And encountered the rudest SA ever!!

2. That's Quarry.
