Somebody clarify this for me because I've been hearing all different things. Also, do the boxes count for B2M? Thanks. |

That's the lipstick AND a big lovely cappacino made by the gifted barista at your local coffeehouse. You also don't waste valuable magazine reading time mangling shadows by de potting. So those first twenty or so shadows before you discovered pallettes? If one counter/ store won't take them just try another on a good hair day. And then consider yourself past the problem... A MAC lipstick is a great bargain; Look at the decent drugstore ones and then price the other department store ones and $14 for the quality? Buy Pro Pans and pay for the lip stick. You come out ahead on time and $$ both. Then when you have six of anything else you get a freebie, but the eyeshadows are just heck with de potting and all. Seriously, manufacturing that packaging is so hoooribly not green it boggles the mind. It's a petroleum product, all that black plastic, so palettes and pans are a bit of anti toxins to think about. Last bit of wisdom? (yeah, I hear you snorting and rolling your eyes) Those cool LE lipstick cases are interchangable on lipsticks; put a new one in that wonderful Manish or Kitty case when they run out and keep the Precious going. Nobody thinks of that! just put the worn out in the black plastic for turning in. And blah blah blah yeah I can talk. Lizzy |
