[clslvr6spd]

Here is my list:
-Lollipop Lovin' l/s
-Melrose Mood l/s
-3N l/s
-Alpha Girl b/p 2x
-Gold Spill MSF
-Porcelain Pink MSF
-Light Flush MSF
-Warmed MSF (I don't know why, lol.)
-Emote blush
-Nanogold e/s
-Mothbrown e/s

I wish I would have bought 1 or 2 more back ups of Too Fab l/s, Playboy l/s & Real Doll l/s.

Oh well...If I get really desperate I will pay the $$ for it.

At this point I am selling my quite a lot of my back-ups as I just am never going to get through what I have. I do have a back-ups of Moth Brown, Alpha Girl, and Waternymph that I will keep because I love those colors so much!

i never buy backups, i can't really afford them

 

[northerngirl]

I bought backups of Strawberry Blonde which I ended up selling. Now I regret it. Ugh.
I used to buy backups of LE pigments and the MSF but I stopped doing it because I so rarely even touch the MSFs and the pigments last forever so...
I'd rather save my money for the new collections. And a new car... haha

 

[tigerli17]

I don't buy back-ups. I'd rather put the money to the up-coming collections and buy something i'd probably end up using more! I don't have the money for back ups either.

I end up buying a lot of face primer, lip primer, brush cleaner and fix+ though just because I use those every single day. Hopefully will be B2M soon

i don't think i'd ever buy backups... it takes me literally forever to finish using a product and i usually am on to the next new thing once it comes out..

I bought two Modest Tone e/s (favorite for my inner), two Strawbaby l/s, and Lollipop Loving + Sock Hop.... I think (know) I should stop... Talk about obsessive compulsive. hhahahahha

 

[GlamYOURUs]

I bought 2 She Golds from Dress Camp (lipglasses now restocked on the MAC US site) and another Fashion lipglass. I bought Fafi blushes, Fashion Frenzy & Hipness as backups and High Top l/s. Two Sock Hops from Heatherette.

 

[b3AuTiFuL323]

I only get backups of LE stuff that I really like.I got 2 backups of sculpt and shape and I got 3 backups of viva glam 6 and I got 1 backup of alpha girl BPB.

 

[carrieann07]

I have back-up's of almost everything LE

I also have 6 of each shadestick!!

 

[lilsweety]

Since the release of mac loves barbie, Ive been collecting some LE Mac lustre lipsticks. I'm more of a lip girl myself. I love neutrals and pinks and tend to shy away from the deep and dark colours.

I think its a good idea to buy one or more backups of your favorite item/s, since they are unique, or perhaps not all but some are. But need to be careful on ebay, it can be expensive.

I have back ups of:
mac loves barbie sweet and single l/s
mac loves barbie fashion pack l/g
fafi strawbaby l/s
heatherette lollipop loving l/s
heatherette sock hop l/g
euristocrats patisserie (love this!)

although im not sure if this is LE but its only available in europe
dress camp too fab l/s
dress camp fashion l/g

I did buy a few back-ups from heatherette, but have already given those to my sister-in-law! The only back-up i currently have is the Inventive Eyes quad, but I'm considering one of Ensign lustreglass and Shore Leave e/s.

Edit: And I seriously wish I had bought two of the Dresscamp palette, because I will be using this one a lot. Funny thing is, I saw how quickly it sold out, and ended up ordering mine first thing in the morning when it was released at the MAC store in Robson, but still didn't have enough sense to order two.

I told myself that I'm going to ease up on the backups, since I have yet to actually need one, but "Port Red" sounds so wonderful that I may order my backup at the same time I order my initial tube. That's how I ultimately ended up with three of "Queen's Sin" late last year, but I'm not sorry.

I've only ever bought 3 backups and those have all been very recently.

Springtime Skipper - my original was down to the pan and panic was beginning to set in. I feel relieved I have another one now. (Thanks, Julzie!

)
Firespot - one of my absolute favourite e/s but I was getting to the point where I was avoiding using it until I got a backup.
Alpha Girl - I bought 2, expecting it to become a favourite of mine and it has.

I just got my first backup ever, and that is of Lollipop Loving Lipstick. I think I have finally found a lipstick that I can't live without. I also need to go on a search for a backup of She-Gold Lipglass, as I wear it often, and lipglass seems to go really fast for me. I totally thought I would never by a backup of anything. My how things change...

 

[bella1342]

I bought multiple backups of brew l/s(6)... and feline pencil (3)

Everything else I bought 1 backup of:

Deckchair pigment, Smoke and Diamonds, and Sunsparked Pearl bp. I had a backup of Melrose Mood but I recently sold it for $12 to someone who wanted it badly. I have a backup of a few tendertones too, but can't remember which ones. I also bought a backup of bare necessity dazzleglass.

 

[rockandregret]

I bought Goldbit when it first came out, then realized how much of a love affair was starting between us, so i went and bought two more. Now i'm down to my last one! Other than that, i thiiiink i bought a backup of Love Bud, and gave the extra to my sister.
