What do you have backups of & How Many??

[LoraBrook]

I only buy multiples of L/S and Glass, just because I like to have one on my purse for touchups.

I get a strange joy out of the hunt for a replacement. I'm clearly SICK!

[R21ORCHID]

I was going to post but some of these are out of site--gotta bow down

 

[Hilde]

Nothing! Except maybe UD's sin which happens to be in two of my palettes, and Club which happened accidentaly by getting a photo realism quad where two of the colors were substituted with nylon and club, and I already had club. And when I get the cham-pale quad I will have two retrospeck, pretty color but I'm unsure if I will sell one off or not.

I try hard not to back things up because something new and better usually always comes along, IMO, but sometimes it just can't be helped.

Currently, I have:

• Mystery Kohl Power (2, L/E)
• Plum Soft Cremestick Lipliner (2, D/C)
• Undercurrent Pearlglide Intense Liner (2, *used to be* L/E)

My backup list. I have only 1 backup of each, that's as much I will allow myself to have, haha!

- Coco pigment
- Blue/Brown pigment petite (just because it was SO FREAKING HARD to find)

- Ever Hip l/s (original release)

Eyeshadows:
- Waternymph
- French Grey
- Mothbrown (original and Barbie)
- Atlas
- Putty
- Flirty Number
- Smoke & Diamonds
- Hocus Pocus
- Olive Groove
- Aria (my first ever MAC shadow!)
- Bark
- Guacamole (original)
- Jealousy Wakes
- Relaxing

- Pink Cult blush

- Lightscapade MSF

At one point I had two Perverted Pearl quads, but I sold one of them when I realized that I will never finish that quad in my lifetime. I don't like to back up lipsticks because I have a fear of the backup going bad before I get the chance to use it. I loved Ever Hip so much I had to get two, though, and I've already made a sizeable dent in my first tube. And I think the only lipglass I would ever back up is Flash of Flesh. LOVE.

 

[PeachTwist]

Looking at my small collection, I think it's funny that I have a back up of anything.
- MAC Too Chic Beauty Powder x1
- GOSH Soft 'n Shine Lip Balm in "Perfect Plum" --> I discovered these after they were discontinued and jumped on PP when I spotted it. The thing is... I'm not really a lippie person so I might return my backup!

How many backups are too many?

 

[ScarletNight]

There's totally no such thing as too many.

For me I only have a backup of Phloof and paint in Sublime Nature. Not that either of those will ever stop being made, but if I lost one (which has happened) I always have a backup on hand, lol.

 

[tats]

Now I have a first ever backup of MAC innocence lipstick but that's about it.. I know I will get a lot of use out of it, considering it's my go to lipstick now, that's why I got it))

 

[Yazmin]

Most of the time I limit myself to one backup unless I really love a product. I love MAC Narcissus so much I bought 5 backups. MAC Stolen Moment EDES comes in second with 4 backups and 3 of Ready To Roam l/g.
