I buy MAC more to look at the colors than to actually use.

Yes, it's true....I can't resist how pretty pigment jars or shadows look all lined up in a rainbow of colors. I have many e/s that have never been opened, much less used. But, I have been a faithful MAC user for about 1 year now and rue the day I discovered MAC....my finances will never be the same!

I totally understand what you're saying!

 

[sassy*girl]

I know what you mean, sometimes some MAC stuff looks so pretty you just gotta buy it 'cuz of that. It's true what they say... the eyes are hungrier than the stomach Okay, well maybe when it comes to MAC.

Welcome to Specktra!

haha.. Yes, I do agree with what you wrote. I have makeup that hasn't been touched...just sitting pretty in their box. My husband calls it "my collection" and if I ever talk about returning something.. he says, "oh..but I thought you were growing your collection?" LoL.... I don't know if he's mocking me or really feeding my habit.

Welcome to the boards!

Welcome! I know what you mean, I buy all these pretty blues/green colors and don't touch them!

I think I need to start looking at people's looks of the day to get a better idea on how to use my massive stash. I have tons of shadows in pallettes that I haven't touched.

MAC is notorious for making people do that!!! They just have so many colors and everything is so well displayed!! I know that NARS is also a great brand with very pigmented colors, but i think that MAC is much for accessible which makes us buy so much that it's impossible to wear s we end up just looking at it! lol
