How do you know you have a makeup problem?

A. Panic when your order of a limited edition TF lippie is cancelled?

B. Call NM, TF, and Nordies all over the U.S., and even check UK stores online to find it?

C. Have no luck, so have Nordies chat do an inventory search for you, call the one store showing stock at close, have the poor estee lauder artist still there hunt (and FIND!) it, buy it, and have it sent to you?

D. All of the above


Answer: D. My shame is lessened by thinking how hot I'm going to look wearing the last non-ebay Paradiso available anywhere (unless there's a mid/late summer restock). Hi, my name is Allie, and I have a makeup problem.

You're making me want the body oil but that price is a bit much.
you are so lucky you got it for free... that's freaking awesome. I'm still deciding if I like mine. Individually the colors are awesome, together as a whole the palette is missing something for me. I paired the shadows with a dark brown crease shade and it was perfect.

I'm going to attempt to take this thread in another direction. I finally tried Emerald Lust, and holy cow pigmentation! So, it's waayy too intense for a daily look. I ended up going for a full-on smokey look and a nude lip with it. How do I make this more wearable for M-F? I was rocking the blue/green smokey eye for the grocery store, but it's just not going to work for a conservative office. I know some of you will say that it's fine as-is for M-F, others will question why I'd need to tame it down. In my field, I need to tame it down. Help?

Aww, I'm sorry! I was pissed when Nordies cancelled my first order. I'll keep my fingers crossed for a restock for you...goodness knows he should given how quickly it sold out!

I feel your pain and admire your restraint. I was living with a hot shot TV news person. He took my makeup and a hammer and smashed all the products that were powder. Then took the liquid ones and poured them over the smashed powder. Took anything in pencil form and wrote disgusting phrases on a legal pad and taped them on the walls, as well as writing with them on mirrors. When I arrived at home, he was not there. I took pics and somehow these pics made it to the TV station he was an on the air nightly spokesperson. They also made their way onto Facebook. Oh my gosh Becky, he ended up off the air the next day, now working for a BFI local WEEKLY newspaper. After a long time of being unemployed. His income dropped from the high six figures to around 30k a year. And remember, the Internet never forgets.....so to this day, somehow those pics pop up when his name gets Googled. Of course right after I took the pics, I grabbed everything, got out of Dodge, never went back to that city, ever. To this day, I refuse to take any job there. And this was many years ago.

Here's the link to her blog post if anyone is interested http://www.reallyree.com/2015/05/tom-ford-fall-2015-color-collection-swatches.html I have three of the blush ombres on my list, the cream eye shadow... pretty much everything. That pink primer and powder shade and sculpt look amazing!
