I live with my bf and his mom, I've completely got her hooked on Bare Escentuals. She has tons of it and quit all the drugstore stuff! Thats her favorite. She does have a few MAC items and has gone to the MAC counter with out me.
Now my mom on the other hand I gave her a sample of Urban Decay mascara and she bought a full tube. Now my mom was drugstore only. So I was shocked when she sprung for an expensive tube of mascara. She used it till that tube was DRY!! I've given her a few MAC items like gurlie e/s and she uses it as a blush. I also gave her the Illusionary/ Burning ambition e/s duo and I checked and she hasn't used it. I asked her why not and she said she's saving it for nice. I think she thinks it's just too much $. I call her and she teases me shes doing her FOTD but it's easy because she only has one face. She always laughs about that.

I introduced my mom to MAC by buying her stuff. She loves everything I buy for her. But now she doesn't buy it herself! She just asks me to get it for her!! I also got my aunts hooked on it when they noticed how nice my make-up was ... Took my make-up pouch on the dinner table and started my own show and tell!

My mom wears dollar store makeup *shudder* I don't know why, I leave my MAC in plain sight in my room and she always goes in and helps herself to the other stuff in there. She does ask me to do her makeup when she goes to weddings and stuff though.

My mom loves anything that has to do with beauty, but not as much as she loves shoes and rhinestone jewelry (I don't get it).....I guess that's why I am crazy about makeup? She often complains about the price, but it doesn't stop her from opening up the purse if she sees a nice lipstick or blush. She thinks I wear too much and prefers me to have a more "natural" look, so to keep the peace, my makeup is non existent or very toned down when visiting with the fam. When I'm out with friends, it's a whole different ball game!!!

I *am* the mom and of course I love MAC! I was responsible for turning my D on to the line and it is now happily her addiction, as well. I done good.

I'm the MAC enabling (step)Mom too! I never go to the counter - and I go for just about every new collection - without buying something for my 18 year old daughter, I love showing her ways to get new looks with palettes and I love what she does with the pretty colors I buy her.
She brags to all her friends about "the MAC my stepmom buys me".
I am so lucky - my stepdaughter is gorgeous and sweet and smart and a makeup diva.
Her genetic Mom is one of those who never wear makeup.
Who says genes have to transmit biologically? hehehe

My mom loves to makeup, but I haven't been able to convert her to MAC . She believes in the "respectable" brands like Chanel and YSL; she's somewhat dubious of the image and loud music at the MAC counter LOL

my mom loves the viva glam lippies, any MAC lippie actually. if I give her my B2M's, she'll buy me something else at mac, like a lipglass or eyeshadow. she also likes smolder e/k, Mocha blush, Half Red lipliner, and really anything I give her, she'll use. she loves the lip stuff though, all of it.

I've got my mum into mac slowly .. first it was a brown eyeshadow, then I got her into studio fix, and some brushes, so she's getting there! But she gets irritated by macs limited edition type things and they way nearly everything sells out so quickly.

My mum doesn't LOVE Mac. She does have a few products though. She's a beauty therapist/MA, but she thinks I'm too obsessed with makeup.

she berates me for spending so much on makeup. she wears cheaper stuff, or things that i don't want any more and pass on to her. i really need to get her in for a makeover to convert her!
