Resolution "LOW-BUY" 2014! Who wants to play?

[mosha010]

@mosha010 I loooove your new avi!

Aww thanks love. I decided to stop being sad and be awesome instead. [@]PixieDancer[/@] told me there's no room for sad moshas. Plus if I add sadness to my stress then I really won't get shit done.

 

[PixieDancer]

@mosha010 now THAT avi is what I'm talkin about! Cutiepatootie!

@Deesea UGH! I'm so sorry! Hopefully you'll get past this bump quickly... then onto Vegas for some much needed fun!! Don't let it dampen your spirits! You seem to have a great attitude towards craptastic happenings, and that's so much better than letting it bog you down!

Update on the job thing: 775 people were given a Soft layoff. So during the next 90 days a lot of the work will be transitioned to those of us staying. Yikes! I'm helping some of these people with their resumes... Man I see how it makes sense financially, I'm just glad my dept wasn't touched and I personally didn't have to fire anyone. But still. Storms slowly developing and we shall see. Signing off early dears, we shall stalk tomorrow (unless this launches at midnight at which case I don't mind missing because I'm waiting for store release)

This really puts things in perspective, things can always be worse. My thoughts are with those out of work. Good for you for helping those who need it mosh!

Yeegads.. after talking about resisting I nearly caved with Laura Mercier on Hautelook. A sale! But I resisted.. I have lots of the stuff there that I would like, and the things I don't have similar too yet are because I don't like those colours! lol. Actually brought some makeup out to the computer to compare and show myself I had similar colours...

I've been doing that recently to talk myself out of the Playland collection. I love brights, so of course I have lots of them. I've been getting them out, wearing them, seeing how many I have of similar colors... It's working!

 

[PixieDancer]

OK... I came to confess... I hauled a little too much from the Sephora Sale. Nothing outrageous. Most of it was planned purchases.
However I did use a gift card and coupon today to pick up a few more things that were not planned. Not a lot of $ out-of-pocket.. but still stuff I didn't need.

In my sad, half-ass defense, I DID swatch a ton of stuff and wanted like 10 things, but resisted. And I did only spend a little out-of-pocket after my Gift Card and Coupon... but who am I kidding...

One GOOD thing that came from my recent purchases...

I did picked up a Bite Beauty product today that T is saying is similar to Playland's Toying Around, which is the only lippie I was thinking of getting. So I have convinced myself... (@Audrey C and @PeachTwist helped) I am OFFICIALLY SKIPPING... yes, I said it... SKIPPING Playland! I was going to allow myself my 3 item limit, but now... Not a single fuck will be given! HeeHee

Yeah. She dragged me into purchasing, too!

My no-buy suddenly cost me £127!

Who dragged you? T? Or me? Please don't say me!!!! Ahhhhhhh! *head still hanging in shame*

For the rest of #TeamLowBuy... I might have accidentally enabled @PeachTwist in the Sephora thread! This may be my fall from grace!

You, lol.

I bought 4 products from your rec. 2 of the Sephora lipsticks and 2 of the Bite lip products, and then I happened to add another 2 of their items in, plus an OCC concealer.. and 100pt perks.

I'm no longer on a LowBuy. I'm on a NoBuy. For at LEAST the next month or so. Allowing myself ONLY the items from AA (Bronzer for the compact) and the 3/4 shadows from Moody Blooms. That is IT. Nothing else.

Hey, that Bite stuff wasn't my fault! They sucked ME in over on that Sephora thread! It was THEM!!

LOL
I will take credit for those Sephora lippies... Dang Nabbit!

Sorry babe! I hope you at least LOVE them!

LOL. Fine fine. But STILL! Haha.

I don't even know what those lipsticks are though in correlation to the photos you posted because their names are totally different than the ones you showed. :/

Yeah, it seems the names are on the tubes in the store, but online they just have color descriptions. Weird. The names are so cute!

Day 27: Monday MAC Pink Popcorn Lipstick Too Faced Naked Eye Palette MAC Pink Tea Blush I like pink popcorn but I don't and won't reach for it. I have too much others I'd grab first. It was free (back2Mac) so it's ok. Loved everything else Day 28: MAC Fearless Patent Polish Dior Rosy Tan Palette MAC The Perfect Cheek Blush loved everything Day 29: MAC Private Party Lipstick Too Faced Romantic Eye Palette Hourglass Mood Exposure Blush loved everything Tomorrow is day 30 and I'm MAC'ed out (as far as lipsticks are concerned) there were many I didn't get to but also didn't reach for. I think 2 were seasonal colors that I love but too dark for now but the rest can go
