Sorry this is so long. I'm long-winded
Well, I came back a few days ago from my cruise. I went with my two sisters (Michele 44, the oldest, and Yvonne, 36 the 'middle') and my niece (Samantha, 13...and already a lil' m/u junkie). We went on Norwegian for eight days to St. Thomas, Tortola, and Bermuda.
Anyyyywaayyyyy....
I shared a stateroom w/ my sister Yvonne. I also brought my whole traincase w/ me (yes, it's big and heavy, but you Specktrettes know I 'needed it'). I didn't check it...just carried it on board. So...after we embark and eat a little lunch, we all go to our staterooms. I decided to unpack my m/u. So, my sister lays down on her bed, and starts reading Freestyle Weekly (the cruiseship newsletter). She's all engrossed in what she's reading, and doesn't notice I'm taking everything outta my traincase and putting it on a little breakfast tray on our nightstand (which is in between both beds). After I've got everything set up (e/s, l/g, l/s, etc. etc.), she turns around and finally sees everything. "HOLY SHIT, YVETTE!!!
" She takes a minute to crack up laughing. "WTF IS ALL THAT!?!" She manages to muster between laughter. THEN...She gets out her camera phone, puts it on 'record' and says "This is a picture of all Yvette's makeup"....then starts cracking up again. By this time, I'm feeling a lil' defensive. Yeah, it's more than your 'average' womans' m/u collection, but lemme tell ya, it's not anywhere NEAR some collections I've seen here on Specktra!
Then, she goes to my sister Michele's stateroom (she and her daughter, my niece shared a room)..which is just next door, and she knocks on the door. "Michele..you've gotta see this". So, Michele comes over...."HOLY SHIT, YVETTE
. HOW MUCH DID ALL THAT COST????!!!!!" Was Michele's statement. By now, I'm feelin' really embarrassed. I'm like..."It's not that much" (meekly).
Of course, as soon as they both got over teasing me about it, they both said they "might want to use some of that".
I was MORE than happy to share w/ my sisters. Then I caught Yvonne sitting at our desk/vanity one night putting on m/u for dinner. She had my new Lune Cremeblush, my new Beauty Powder, Satin Taupe, Honey Lust, and All That Glitters out, using it. Not that I minded THAT part...what I DID mind is when I saw her sticking her FINGERS in each of the pots consecutively (not washing in between), and putting her/MY m/u on with her fingers!!!!!!!
Now, I have a LOAD of brushes, and I told her she could use them as much as she wants. She stopped buying 'good' m/u a little while ago, and she doesn't have any brushes, so I guess she's used to using it that way. I told her nicely not to do that...it ruins the m/u!!!! She took it well, and started using my brushes after that
Of course, the whole trip, I was chided and teased and tormented as to why I brought "so much makeup". Well, they didn't have any problem using it...did they!!!!!!!
