Hope your baby feels better soon.Oh geez, hon. I'm sorry. I hope you don't need another surgery. At the moment they seem to want a 2nd liver biopsy from me. I really hope they don't because the last one was the most painful thing I ever experienced. If only finding hobbies with minimal effort was easy for those of us with health issues.I wish I had a great suggestion for you but I don't. I just wanted to let you know I sympathize and can somewhat understand. I know others here will probably have some ideas, though.

But I only got 2 items from the Osborne collection, I figured I didn't need anything else. Plus I'm resisting temptation as well. My UK friend has been having packages delivered to my home. So the ups guy has come every morning all this week! With blk boxes & one Nordies...Lawd. @Debbs, it's interesting to hear you gift unwanted items to fam. Now do they care if they items are Mac, HE? I once tried to give some items to my half sister, who is always asking me for items. When I presented the makeup, so looked , said what's this? It's not Mac, I'll give it to the girls? Wtf! Be glad your getting something given to you. So today I went through my stash & picked a few items, wrong color, or didn't use. Was gonna gift them to a cousin, I said I'd send by her mom who was in town if she wanted them but it's wasn't Mac or a lot of HE...no response. So guess she didn't want em.. smh
Hope she's ok babe
Glad you ordered a few bits though x
Ah it's not - I think it's just the normal thing to do to cheer someone up. Or in my head it is, lol.
Not necessarily. Which is why it's so awesome to hear about.
Thnx. Girl I'll tell her you asked about her. I did think of you, as I picked up Rose pink hair coloring lol will she did. And Veronika is right, it's a great thing to do. I try to gift things a lot if I'm not using. My mom doesn't want em, so I give a lot to my brothers gf, she has more money then me , but doesn't care if items or HE or ds. She's appreciative & she's her collection has grown cause of me. Doing something nice for your friend is great & will make her day a bit better. You'll be Blessed in the end. You feel better chick!Not necessarily. Which is why it's so awesome to hear about.
Sorry to hear about your health problems @PeachTwist and I hope that you're feeling better soon. I agree that this is a great thing for you to do for your friend. And @Paint&Ink Chick, I hope you get good news from the doctor Monday!Thanks, hon!
You're welcome!
I like that thought process. I'll definitely have to try and start doing that. Thanks.

Shame on them for not wanting items that aren't MAC or HE. Ungrateful prats. I went through my stash about a year ago and got rid of all the drugstore stuff I don't use. I have more that needs to go also, but I gave them to my Mom's friends daughter who was turning 15. She appreciated it, thankfully. Really irks me when people are ungrateful. At the end of the day, it's not like they've spent the money. If they want MAC or HE, they can buy it themselves.
I'm going to see a friend in Liverpool on the 21st. She's my "cripple" buddy as we both have crap health. She struggles a lot financially so I'm treating her to a couple MAC lipsticks with my empties. I have enough empties for at least 10 lipsticks and still more to depot, so I'm not missing out by having her pick 2 or 3 lipsticks out for herself. I know she also likes the look of Melba blush so I may buy that for her too. I'm just excited to be able to spend some time with someone in person who GETS what I'm going through health wise.
When I told her I was treating her she squealed with excitement - but she wouldn't have cared what the brand was. I love people like her. So grateful for any type of kind act. That's how it should be.
Yes, good luck with the doctor on Monday, and hopefully she improves over the weekend. KYY and Bijou seem like nice choices from the collection! I've been wearing both of my things a lot since I got them, so seems to be the case that you appreciate a small haul more than a big one.
Right. I just wore kyy around the house lol but liked it. I did wear Bijou out and may grab a back-up. It's like a nudey pink on me & I like my "nude" lip to look that way. I paired it with Whirl, like a lot of other things and it was Gawjus!
I am rather tempted by KYY since it looks nicer than CandyYY. Do you find it stains a lot like people have been saying, or can you get it off afterwards all right?
Oh yea huntee, it definitely does stain lol. I put it on, ate, brushed my teeth, still there. I don't usually take my lipglass especially & such off at night, cause well usually there gone. But when I got up in the morning, it was still on lol. I applied my before shower lip balm & it did look good. But I wiped it off after. I didn't get Candy cause it seemed to in ya face, this is warmer & imo more wearable.
I've read some people ARE using makeup removers for that lippie! GREAT idea! I don't think I would have thought of that and it makes SO much sense!Thank you to everyone who shared. No, I haven't B2M'ed yet. I've heard other bad stories elsewhere so I wanted to get the general consensus on here. It's a shame there's attitude given or that people feel they have to buy items too when they B2M. The company either offers the program or they don't. People have already purchased a number of items in order to take part in it, so I don't understand any attitude. Not that attitude is justifiable at any time.
I agree! If ANYONE gets attitude about B2M... report that immediately! Afterall, MAC doesn't have "Back To MAC" written on 90% of their packaging for no reason! Grrrrrr! HeeHee
How's the baby!!??
I think it's super sweet that you offer up your unused makeup! And it's not like all DS makeup is THAT cheap! Some of those prices rival MAC at this point! Ungratefulness is like an ugly tattoo... The person that has it often can't see it!

Yeah, I bet that would work. Or a cleansing oil, too. Probably just needs some oil to break it up, like waterproof mascara does. Let me know if it works!
Well do, as I have it on now lol. A friend wanted to see how it looks.
