I think that's why some of them (like mine) are so supportive of our MAC collections. Because they don't feel as bad when they get stuff for their cars/electronics, ahem, bringing home a 52 inch lcd tv out of nowhere...if they take us to get a lot of makeup. They equate that to our makeup collections. Which in the end, works out pretty damn good for us....lol. I've really enjoyed the tv and the nice cars and the MAC collection ain't that bad either.

Yea, that would make sense for my husband if he wasn't such a cheap ass. I love him dearly, but he is a tightwad. He really wants to retire early (which I can respect) but he takes it to a level that is unheard of. He only owns 3 shirts (which he rotates), 1 pair of shoes and 2 pairs of jeans. When I met him he had inflatable furniture

. He said he thought it was awesome b/c he could inflate and deflate to his comfort level. Needless to say, he has had to come to grips with the fact that we are NOT going to live like that.

He is a sweet pea. He tries so hard, I love him!

 

[TRASHdecor]

well my boyfriend makes fun of my MAC addiction, and everytime he asks what i'm doing he automaticallysays- watching makeup stuff on youtube huh? lol

and our conversation about foundation/ highlighting/contouring was pretty hilarious. he acts interested though, which is pretty cute.

I live in a tiny town and have to do most of my makeup shopping online, so buying new lipstick can be kind of hit and miss. I didn't think my husband paid too much attention to my makeup until the day I had on a new lipstick and he looks at me, then does a double take, and starts staring at my lips. He starts laughing, and says "You're not wearing that out of the house, are you? That looks like a colour your grandma would wear" ...he doesn't exactly have a lot of tact

Thats the funniest thing I've heard in a while. Thankfully, you came into his life, my dear!

I have another story, just from today

We were getting ready to go to the weekly dreaded trip to the grocery store.
I had just gotten out of the shower and was brushing my teeth and he asked: "How long is it going to take you to get ready? You're not going to put all of that stuff you put on yesterday are you? If so, we'll be here for another hour!"

 

[BeautyPsycho]

He's a sweetheart about it (most of the time, but he has his "times" when he gives me headache about how much m/u & nail polish I have...) anyways... we went to CCO (first time ever) and couldn't find the store that had MAC... It was 10 minutes before closing and someone finally told us where it was... we were running across the parking lot to make it there

it was pretty funny watching him run while saying "Run! Run! pretty eye shadows are waiting!"
I find it funny how he stares at MAC makeup artists...It's like he's mesmerized by their pretty makeup

He always asks me later if their lashes are real

(Once, he added "What about her boobs?"

LOL)

 

[elegant-one]

^^^Thats really Cute & Funny!

I'm just loving these stories...more ladies...please

 

[xxManBeaterxx]

roflmao i read every single post and im laughing my ass off at 2am in the morning.

Well my husband actually takes longer than me to get ready for a night out, so he cant even begin to COMPLAIN at me. I tamed him, as soon as we go to the mall where the mac store is, he drops me off right infront of the store and says HURRY UP GO GO GO GO THERES A NEW COLLECTION TODAY!!!! and he passes me his wallet LOL. So i hop out of the car, pick up everything i want because the lovely ladies at specktra posted swatches and i just go in the store grab my items then zooom im out of there.

He even wants me to try to apply as a makeup artist at mac @___@ i wish haha

 

[Krasevayadancer]

My bf is sooo supportive. He always gives me feedback on looks (and has taken the time to learn about my passion)

He actually requests I do smokey eyes when we go out sometimes, it is so sweet.

Once he had "inspiration" for a look he would like me to do, so he drew a diagram on microsoft paint showing color placement. I found that so sweet.

Another thing he said. We were watching food network when they started talking about wedding cakes where there are separate bride and groom cakes. When I asked him what he would pick to be my surprise cake he said a MAC quad. He knows I love me some quads, and oh man do I love him!

More things he says as I think of them

 

[arielle123]

My husband calls all beauty stuff makeup (skincare, hair stuff, actual makeup, everything). I buy a lot of stuff online as well as in store and everytime he sees a package in the mail he asks how the makeup's doing.

He also comments how he has about 3 items in the bathroom. The rest of the huge mountain of stuff is mine

 

[purrtykitty]

Yeah, mine pretty much just grumbles about all the makeup I have and how much it costs him (in terms of hours worked) when a new package arrives. But, I don't hear him complaining when I wear it...in fact, he gets all bent out of shape if I take my makeup off too soon before going to bed (if you get my drift)

Otherwise, he'll tell me if he thinks my shadow is "too dark" or if I look "whore-y". Lol, he's not very tactful with me, but I appreciate the effort.

 

[smh28]

Thanks for the laughs ladies, that was hilarious!

I am new to MAC so my husband is still in the grumbling "You spent HOW MUCH on make up? Now I am going to have to work seven days a week!" stage. LOL. I am working on him though. I got him helping me pick out rubbermaid storage bins for it all the other day. He actually encouraged me to get the bigger, more expensive one so I know there is hope!

I KNEW he was using it in the bathroom! I caught him using it once, but now I know he's using it more. He's such a guys guy too which is hilarious. He tries so hard to understand... Now I've got to convince him that it's actually a "makeup product" and not just a super cool face spray that sits on our counter so he doesn't use it up!

That's classic!!!

LOLOL OMG i love it!!!



My ex never really had anything to say about my makeup, he'd would either like it or not, but the funniest thing was when we would go out and he would say 'she needs to learn to blend' or 'those colors didn't go good together'

&& the funny thing was when the girls at MAC got to know him better than me! lol

 

[Cinci]

Well this isnt my boyfriend being funny, but his friend... My boyfriend's buddy's gf loves to shop and buy really expensive shoes/boots. Everytime his buddy worked overtime or got a particularily large check and mentioned it to my boyfriend, my boyfriend's response would be "Oh, so your gf is getting a new pair of boots?" lol.. well now with my new found mac addiction.. the question has been reversed.. now when my bf gets some overtime his buddy bugs him and says "So your gf's gonna get some new MAC??"

 

[pretebrowneyes]

these are hilarious, lol. My bf is really great about my makeup....he'll go to CVS for BOGO, MAC, Sephora..anywhere the stuff is. He'll ask me what everything is...we even had a quiz one time in the car. I was like..."I use this to cover my under eye circles..." Kenneth: uhhhhh, concealant?" E for effort, lol. And he's already been told about the Manish collection...baby wants everything!!! And I've gotten him all into skincare with me...we cleanse, exfoliate, tone, moisturize together. The only time he makes fun of me is when I get something new and I pull out everything I have (still a pretty small collection) and put all makeup lines together or all of the eye, face, lips stuff together. He says I look like a little kid with Legos, lol

Oh yeah....I make him watch Enkore and all other tuts on youtube with me.....
