Buster, what a scrumptious collection. Looks so pretty!
MrsA, good luck finding UD lippie I have a one in, one out policy in my bag. Well most of the time.
Welcome Blue!

Sapphire, once better. Operation lipstick rescue!

BusterGonad · 08/02/2017 07:52

Thanks everyone! Lol. I've just tidied my make up, wiped stuff down with my sons toilet wipes 🤣. I've also got Mac Rebel and a limited edition Mac one in Petals and Peacocks! My god, my stash must be worth hundreds!!! Sapphire I also have loads of make up at my mums (back in U.K.) that need liberating! I'm worried for it's welfare, my only 2 Chanel lippys are there, and I've forgotten what else!!!

MrsAHotch · 08/02/2017 07:52

I suspect it's in a handbag that hasn't been used in a while. If I don't find it, I may end up breaking my spending ban and I've done really well with it so far.

BusterGonad · 08/02/2017 07:54

Mac Liberty Petals and Peacocks! So beautiful!

I'm fluffy and a complete lipstick addict! I've found my people! I go nowhere without one! Buster what a collection Envy. Well jealous! Unfortunately I have a ds who is 3 and likes to open them, push them right up and then squish them into the lid Shock. Sacrilege!

BusterGonad · 08/02/2017 08:50

I feel you pain Fluffy my son when younger liked to help me with my makeup as a toddler, he'd scratch his nails down eyeshadow, but now he's 8 I love to ask his opinion on lipsticks! If I'm eyeing one up he'll say "buy it mama, you deserve it" ha ha. He knows how to keep me happy, then of course I'll feel guilty so I'll buy him a magazine! Blush

MrsAHotch · 08/02/2017 09:52

Seeing all of these pictures is making me want to photograph all of mine in their colourful glory Blush

BusterGonad · 08/02/2017 09:58

Go for it MrsA. You know we'd love to see it!!!

MrsAHotch · 08/02/2017 10:02

Sod it, I'll do it once I've dropped the kids off at nursery Grin

BusterGonad · 08/02/2017 10:09

Yeeessss......I can't wait for that, now when do we do the eyeshadow one! 🤣😂😁

MrsAHotch · 08/02/2017 10:13

Tell you what, I'll do my whole stash 👍🏽

ItsAFluffy · 08/02/2017 10:28

Buster only another 5 years to to then Confused. In the bright side it gives me an excuse to keep buying them Grin.

Eyeshadow, yes please! Let's do one!

ItsAFluffy · 08/02/2017 10:28

To go*

MrsAHotch · 08/02/2017 10:30

Dare I list things too?! I love a good list, especially when I spit something someone else has and I need a review.

MrsAHotch · 08/02/2017 10:30

Spot obviously, not spit Confused

BusterGonad · 08/02/2017 10:45

List then piccy. I'll do my eyeshadows tomorrow, not so many but they are all dreamy so it doesn't matter! Can't wait I love my eyeshadow palettes so much!

seefeld · 08/02/2017 14:45

All the lists and pictures are making me Envy!

I've bought lipliners. Went for cheapie ones from Catrice as L'Oreal and Max Factor coat the same here (Switzerland) as MAC, BB etc do in the UK and so I can't bring myself to buy them. But the Makeup Alley reviews are decent so let's see. I will report back!

LOTD is Smashbox Primrose with That's What Rose Wood Do Catrice lip liner. I used Smashbox Insta-Matte over the top to matify it and I'm really pleased with the effect. Maybe that stuff is the answer to drying matte lipsticks. Anyone else use it? Mine came with a box of mini lipsticks I got for Christmas.

MrsAHotch · 08/02/2017 15:13

I attempted to do photos and realised I would lose a whole day Blush so I'll just list instead. Eyeshadows, eyeliners, highlighters and blushers?

BusterGonad · 08/02/2017 15:47

MrsA what a let down, the listing takes the time! Grin
Sea I'm rather jealous of your Smashbox set!!!

MrsAHotch · 08/02/2017 16:42

OK OK I WILL. Maybe tomorrow though.

BusterGonad · 08/02/2017 16:44

👍🏼💄😍😁

loveslipstick · 08/02/2017 19:34

I also attempt to follow the one in one out handbag policy but realistically I empty five lipsticks out on a Friday after work.

Today I am wearing Urban Decay Tilt which I absolutely love and lasts all day.

BubblesDarling · 08/02/2017 19:45

Lotd- Sexy Sienna CT. On application, gorgeous, a slight departure from my usual pinks, non drying. Lunch time not so sexy sienna. More clingy & flaky. Now wearing Marc Jacobs, Eat Cake.

loveslipstick · 08/02/2017 20:24

This is my lipstick collection. (Two photos as I forgot to add a few)

I recently got rid of 30+ because they were either a shit formula or the shade was no good for me.
