MAC - Starflash Discussion

[MAC_Whore]

Re: MAC Starflash collection discussion

Strap on your seatbelt (all MAC listed below):

Shadows in the pot:

• Greens: 42
• Neutrals/highlight: 49
• Purples: 47
• Pinks: 49
• Whites: 12
• Yellows/Oranges/Golds: 33
• Blues: 66
• Browns: 63
• Burgundies/Cranberries: 21
• Blacks/Greys/Silvers: 36
• Screw Tops: 16
• MES: 21 (No palette-Can't depot)
• Colour Theory: 9 (No palette-Too big)

Other MAC shadows:

• 38 quads = 152 shadows
• 31 palettes = 160 shadows (no palettes)
• 3 liquid shadows (No palette)
• Solar Bits = 4 (No palette)
• Metal X = 7 (No palette)
• Pigments = 127 (No palette)

So...palette-able shadows = 586 and palettes needed = 39 (probably add 10 more for odd numbered colours as I like to palette colour families together) so 49 palettes.

Total shadows (palette-able and otherwise, including pigments): 917

Want to really be scared? Take that potted shadow number and third it. That is how many backups I probably have. Oh, scary fact #2....this isn't even counting my crapload of non-MAC shadows.

Oh God, I didn't even count Shadesticks, Paints or Paint Pots!

Eeeks.

I was then thinking that by the end of the year, I will probably be over 1,000 shadows. Frightening.

You know it took me about a half an hour to count all those out. My cat was staring at me the whole time like, "Woman, you are crazy!"

But it would cost you a fortune is palettes, so it might even out

49 palettes x $12.50 = $612.50 plus tax
