What is your collection worth...

I was going through my MAC spreadsheet a few weeks ago and finally got around to adding the amounts in for everything that I had bought. I also added the amounts that I spent over the last 1.5 to 2 years on makeup.

OMG... i was in complete shock on how much I have spent on makeup. I know exactly how much I spent on eyeshadows, pigments,... etc. I don't know if I am ready to admit it yet. Mine is in the THOUSANDS.

Do you know how much your collection is worth? Are you brave enough to share?

Mine is at about... £5k. Last time I looked at it which was a few weeks ago, I spent £4850 in the last year and half. This isn't including what I just spent on NN and Pleasureflush. That will bring it over £5k. Give or take a few hundred for stuff that I had before I started seriously collecting.

I really need to stop buyin makeup!!!

I don't even wanna think about mine. I'll feel tons of guilt if I knew the true figure, it would have been money that could have gone towards the house me and my bf want or money for generally more important things. It would also prove that I'm truly addicted to MAC to the rest of my non-make up understanding family.

Still...it makes me happy so I don't regret getting any of it, it's become my lil hobby and my artistic outlet

I'm curbing the addiction a bit though and only buying things I feel are truly unique now as opposed to buying everything. So hopefully that figure won't be as high as it could be later on when curiosity gets the better of me and I just have to know how much I've spent.

I've never calculated, but if I did, I'd guess it's around $3,000.

I don't really buy clothes or jewelry, but when I do it's the cheap stuff; so all my "spending money" goes towards higher priced make up because that's what I like.

oooooohhh.....this is bad. As an employee and freelance makeup artist i was thinking about going through all my stuff for renters insurance. I probably have between $8k-$10k worth of makeup!!!!

Crazy huh???

I think I should make a spreadsheet of my stuff. Just by looking at it, its clearly in the Thousands.

I've spent about $350 in the last week alone! Granted, I didn't buy any new makeup at all when I was preggo. My baby is 4 months old now and my hubby told me to go for it so... I did. I'm done for awhile though....Maybe!

I've only been collecting for the last two months and I've got to have already spent like $700 on my fairly small collection :\

Well, just added up my quads, e/s and blush palletes and MES's and it's come to about Cdn$2655, giving for tax and taking for the great deals I've found.

That's not including glosses, lippies, lipliners, eyeliners, brushes, skincare, foundation and pigments (samples and full-sized).... even with sale and swap items I'm sure I'm double what I've calculated so far....EEP! All since August 2005.

So basically, it's equal to what my husband spent (sale prices) on his goalie equipment for both ice and inline hockey...
