College loans are a wonderful thing. Then after college go into the Peace Corps, US Forestry, etc., and your loans will be forgiven. So go ahead and get the items you are missing. Your children can figure out how to pay for college, my brother and I did. Plus having this on your resume will pretty much gets you a job anywhere you apply. Since it is 100% volunteer with a SMALL token given to you for pooping in the jungle, snow where ever they send you.

As my mama always told me, get the real thing or go without. Of course she was talking diamonds, but I now use it for makeup.

[COLOR=0000FF]I don't believe in backups, but I have backed up about three items, two years ago and haven't touched them. That [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]said, if I looked as good as you do in SD I'd back it[/COLOR]
[COLOR=0000FF] up too!!![/COLOR]

Awwww, thank you

it's really a universal shade

Yea, I don't BU many things either. If I know I'll abuse it, I buy two! SD is going to get SO used this summer! I need two! Or I need to find a nice dupe!

I use to get backups, then I run out of real estate to store them. End up giving them away. The only backup I have held onto is the Chanel Notorious blush. Yep, still in the box. Figure someday I can figure out on to sell on eBay and can make some fast cash. I think it sells for some absurd amount the last time I checked.

I also remember now why I don't buy from Sak's. My Guerlian stuff was literally about 10 miles from my house, but has now gone to Wisconsin so it can be mailed back down to me. Ugh, this so sucks. I forgot Sak's does the goofy FedEx then it becomes US mail.

you are not helping my situation!

But we are helping you, so you won't have to go to the shrink to process not having purchase the product when you should have. Even if you have insurance, the co-pay for the numerous sessions you will need for the shrink to work this all out is more then the lipstick will cost you right now. Plus the value of your time you will be spending driving to the shrink, the cost of gas to get there. You will be money ahead if you just purchase it right now.

My palette arrived yesterday! The heaven's opened up and I started singing like Ariel as I unveiled it.

Don't feel bad about the blush-----after all your SA gets a sale via FP unless you're ordering online. But there will be other times and sales. I would have done the same thing to assure that I got the product I wanted. I don't have the TF liner but I think it might have been pretty favorably mentioned on this thread. You'd have to read back a few pages unless someone who has purchased it chimes in.

Thanks, Meddy! I will definitely order it through my SA.

...I'm going to be sad when this collection finally sells out! Everything is a winner here! Skinny Dip would be gorgeous on you! It will make YOUR beautiful soup coolers even more cooler

no pressure!

Listening to you all, I am so grateful that there is not a single TF eye shadow from this collection (apart from the palette), that would work on me, that I can't wear bronzers, and that sheer lipsticks are a washout on me. That means I can concentrate on the blushes, (if we forget about the Chanel collection, which I have not.)

This is the best, most complete, and bulletproof rationalization I've ever heard. I will keep it in my back pocket for later use.

There have been some contractors working outside and every day, the delivery people give them packages-- a bit embarrassing.

 

[Yazmin]

I forgot to mention I bought two 6-packs of Ramen noodles last night. Since I can't stop buying makeup, I'm going to have to scrimp a bit on food!

When you have a father who is an accountant, worse he works for the govt. so he knows all the bull$hit excuses that one can use. My brother and I have become quite good at excuses why we must spend money. As for the workers, if they are hot, enjoy them bringing you packages.....

But are you at the point of making soup out of the ketchup packets you get at fast food joints for free and adding hot water to make soup? Yes, the college days of eating.....If you toss in the Ramen noodles you have two meals.

Uh-oh. You are so right. Big trouble.

I'm wearing MAC Royal Wink in anticipation.

Well, I am, I must admit it. Some things never change.

I just tried on Paradiso again - I used the Clarins glow booster yesterday, so I have some colour on my face + it's light outside and now it's a perfect pink

I love it!

I hope everyone enjoys their goodies! I bought only 3 items but I love them! The collection is really beautiful but not everything is for me.

I love love love it! I am addicted to it. Bought it for the second time recently. Also I got the one for body! It's so perfect for pale skin

I'm glad to hear that! I received both of them yesterday and I really like them so far! Although I don't agree with a lot of bloggers about the smell - they do smell like biscuits but I actually don't mind that

How long did the bottle last you?
