MAC Haulage Or How To Mess Up A Spending Diet In Three Easy Steps

I was having a little sort out the other day and I realised that my MAC 15 Pan Palette that I had reserved for my green, blue and aquas was now full! and with one eyeshadow to depot and several pigments that I am planning on pressing I though I better get a new palette.
So I placed a little order with MAC - but you know me I can't just buy one thing so I added another couple of bits - first of all I got one of the lip liner pencils from the Too Fabulous collection - I got In Synch which is a lovely cool toned peachy pink

I really like this and I think it will be great on its own as the texture seems really good unlike my normal MAC liner - I wonder if they have changed the formula this will be great for colours like Snob and of course like Viva Glam Gaga when it eventually launches :( I am definitely going to try and pick up the Naked liner if I can. (I have had this about a day and it is already gone AWOL - I left it on the table the other night and now its gone - a new cat toy me thinks :()

I also picked up a lipstick - my first Viva Glam in II . I really love this on it's a gorgeous brown/nude/pink the swatch makes it look a bit darker that it is - the lip shot is probably more accurate

I also placed another order with cosmetics-skincare but I was super good and only got one thing -an eyeshadow in Cumulus - a gorgeous silvery, grey :)

Oh and I also picked up another MAC item, this time in a blog sale held by the lovely Cat at Reaching For The Stars - sorry I haven't had time to photograph it but it Amber Lights and its gorgeous :) Huge thanks Cat and check her out if you haven't already x
OK so they you have MAC proves my downfall again to be honest as I said before I am not going to get hung up on the fact that I've gone over my limit, it happened I just have to try not to go too insane (well not much anyways) - this was always going to be a bad month for me with my mum being in hospital - stress, boredom, and loneliness are my shopping triggers - that's just me I am afraid - I'm not going to hate myself for it, it makes me who I am xx

  1. Amber Lights is one of my faves! Lovely haul - the lippie looks lovely on you! I'm after a couple of the Cremesheen glosses but my bro works at the airport so can get them for me duty free! then locking up wallet until Art Supplies comes out...

  2. Lovely post hunni. Yeah I don't beat myself up for buying too much make up. We only live once. Why shouldn't we have what we want?

  3. I hear you about shopping when you're stressed, at the moment i'm stressed about my lack of money but i can't help buying things because it makes me feel better :( it's a vicious circle.
    I love the look of the lipliner you got, lovely peachy colour. Hope your Mum is doing well.
