Random Beauty views and the end of a month long makeup BAN!!

My makeup ban is up!!! completed. Finished. Done. And you know something?..It wasn't as horrendous as i thought it would be!! I did find myself craving products from the new mac collections. I longed for the blush ombres that were released in the colour forecast collection and which now i know will be impossible to own but overall i did pretty well!

I did buy new foundations but i needed them! It wasn't really what i would call a cheat as i ran out....also my boots advantage card points came in handy for one or two lip products that i honed in on like the magpie i am whilst 'passing' through boots! The ban was to not spent any money on makeup, not points.Important distinction.

I'm hoping now that i will receive lots of goodies for my birthday to try out and play with. longing for the coastal scents metal mania palette!! This will keep me happy for days!! The 'hot pots' look pretty interesting also!!

I did sort out my makeup into ten stackable drawers from whsmith. My blush drawer is jam packed full of lovely pans full of colour but which to be honest is never going to get used up!! I just seem to collect these things like the sick, shallow individual i am. I'm aware this isn't normal but i love it and its my hobby. I have however decided to put my foot down and complete what i like to call 'project ten pan' ten products that i have to use up before i allow myself to purchase anymore makeup! (obviously this doesn't include gifts so feel free!!:)) good idea? lets see...


oh, but to celebrate my ban for the month i have accumulated 9 new chanel blushes.
Kind of defeats the objective huh? x
