Resolution "LOW-BUY" 2014! Who wants to play?

[Audrey C]

GO FOR IT!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY! post swatches too HAHA

Well, it's on the way. You and Pixie were supposed to talk me DOWN, girl! Did you miss the memo?

No swatches for a bit, of course…but here's the pic. I'm thinking I could probably swish across to get mostly bronzer and then hit the sides for colour for the apples of my cheeks. It's pretty swatched together too, or in a half circle that captures either the orange or the pink.

Love this! You're so motivational, lady!

Awww thanks sweetie. I try! I feel responsible to keep the spirits up in here... especially since I got us into this low-buy mess in the first place! HeeHee
I'm PM'ing you now about contour stuff...

WOAH! NO WAY! I could NEVER talk you down from a beautiful (and WELL DESERVED) Mother's Day gift that looks like THAT!!!! If only my son knew anything about makeup! LOL Guess I'll be ok with my yearly knick knack... Oh you are getting that hubby of yours trained very well! Jelly!!

So I sold $130 worth of makeup today to a friend Yaay!! My collection is oficially smaller and I have extra cash! Not bad at all lol

It's also unique because it's not just a bronzer, too, plus it will be nice to have a Mother's Day gift that you will use so often during the year. I would let him get it for you, especially since it's rather pricy! Otherwise, he will probably spend at least that much on something that you might not even like. I think the low-buy standards can be relaxed for gifts, which are meant to spoil someone!

I use NYX Taupe blush. It's great because if I want to play, I don't feel bad because I'm not using up an expensive product. It's around $5 in the US but I don't know what it would be in Germany.

My young daughter saw me checking out the bronzer online and asked if I was going to get it. I said no because I don't really need it and it's more than I spend. I have a strong feeling she visited the Bank of Dad and planted a seed.

It really is gorgeous.

Good going Anna!.. WTG ! especially where you are, and with import restrictions, your friend should be very happy!

@Audrey C Thank you dear Audrey for your support and kind words -- honestly I am still hurting but life goes on and if anything I have proven myself to be a survivor.. so this too shall pass. I am happy for Bert.. he will see me someday and think how dumb he was. He let his dick rule his brain, and that is really the most important thing any man has to be able to control. For all his good looks and professional sucess he is a failure at life. I however am like the proverbial cockroach.. I will survive and will thrive

As for your hubby and gift.. ENJOY! hell, it's one life and it's NOW! It's a great product!

@PixieDancer thank you darling.. you are always the biggest and mostest cheerleader for us in low buy.. (cough). And your kind words and advice are always very much appreciated. Many hugs.. xoxoxel

all my lowbuy ladies! @Rainbunny @Liba @Ajigglin

lots of hugs and many thanks for your kindness and well wishes.. \

@Naynadine ... love you girl.. ! how are your eyebrows? lol.. I may need you someday to do a waxing job.. lol

I am off to Rome in the morning.. driving down to see the Mass of the Century... yes, me, the heathen will be purefied.. not putrefied.. lol

xoxox

See... you just justified this product by also making it sound appealing as a workout option! LOL You ornery cockroach you!

@PeachTwist I am so sorry darling... did you buy the Lancome? I hope you can either sell it or cut it down with a white (Illamasqua makes a good one, so does Koh Gen doh -- white foundation).

In Lancome, I did tell you my shade was B001.. from Asia. which is a much much lighter shade. In Chanel it's the B10 or B12.. anything over those colours will always be darker or orangey on me. Again, I am sorry if I did not explain it properly

.. I hope you are feeling better and healthier

Totally! At first I loved it but then I realized I liked my Naked 1, MAC palettes and LORAC Pro much more so no use in keeping it when I knew someone would use it a lot more!
