Are you makeup obsessed?
How you know you are addicted and need rehab-
You buy makeup at the drugstore, beauty supply, ordering online, wherever you can for a fix in between collections coming out.
Today, I found myself doing foul play: I was recruiting, trying to find converts. Randomly changing conversation to makeup. "Are you going to the trend show at Nordstroms?" (or other times I might strike convo in the beauty aisles of drugstores and makeup counters. It's like a cat sniffing out a rat.) Fortunately for me, I told my friend about something regarding makeup and she asked me was I going to the trend show first! Usually, I have to keep convo and my over analyzing of an eye shadow or concealer to a minimum so that others without the addiction, won't catch on to our secret and debilitating obsession. Specktra was secret for me for a long time. I didn't want people to know how crazy I was about makeup!
Share, if you will, about your obsession. You can choose to reply under anonymous...................

I'm Amy and I have a makeup buying problem! I buy WAY more than I wear. I can't even go a DAY without buying something. It's sad. Really it is. But, I love it all the same. First step of solving the problem is first admitting it! :]
I love makeup so much, that when I heard of New York Gov. Spitzer hired a escort service for $4300 for 1 hour in his hotel room, my accountant brain starting imagining all the MAC and makeup that $4300 could buy, lol. I had to bring myself out of my daydream that maybe I am in the wrong line of work, but then I thought, EWWWWW!. That doesn't mean I forgot how many MSF or LE pallettes that could be sitting in my bathroom, WTH.
My name is Keba and I am addicted.
@ a*m*y: (lol i like thinking of you as krystl..) yes.. the bad part is we like the addiction and don't really want it to stop LOL.. i just wish it wasn't so expensive. that's how i got started anyways!
@ keba: that was hilarious!!! if we could cuddle for an hour, i'm all about it!!!
Yums I am so not ready to admit that I have a problem but the idea is great.. LOL.
I love makeup. I really do. It is a passion.. What I wanted to ask was do u guys think that it is very vain to be into makeup?
To answer my own question. It depends on who I am with. For instance my husband understand my obsession, addiction, etc. But some friends who dont wear makeup dont understand. I dont know rambling again.
hey seymone! i don't think it's vain. i think it's vain when you are applying lip gloss or lipstick every 5 minutes or you are checking the mirror too much. for us, it's a hobby, an addiction, it's fun! other people are into video games, books, movie trivia, big brand handbags.. for us it's makeup. of all the makeup i love and buy, i wear half of it and actually apply it 1/4 of the time.
i love discussing and talking.. you are not rambling!!
i have a mac problem but i think i'm a controlled addict. but only by force and not by habit, lol.
Hi. I am Amina and I am addicted to MAC. I am becoming better now since I am more knowledgeable and I know more about the products that look great on me. I also love hair products but that's another problem. By the way, yummy, i've just linked your blog to mine. I hope you don't mind.
hummm...am I addicted to makeup? I think I am but weird enough, I think I am more addicted to shoes...but makeup is my passion...you cannot play around with shoes like u can with makeup...And looking at my makeup cases...I should say YES!!! I am a MAKEUP ADDICT!
hi, my name is (g)ail, and i am a shopaholic. i don't just buy makeup; i buy whatever i can just to get my "buying" fix. even if i just buy a 99 cent nail file at walgreen's, i get my necessary high. online shopping is the bane of my existance these days. i spend hours putting stuff in my shopping cart, then i don't buy anything, and then a couple days later, i add more shit and buy everything. *sighs* i need intervention here..!!! :0/
Hi! My name is Mandy and I'm an alcoholic... Wait, what? Oh, wrong forum!
But I am a makeup-holic as well. I'm obsessed with finding the perfect everything: the perfect foundation, concealer, blush, powder, primer, brushes, styling product, etc...
It's a never ending quest, paved with disappointments.

@ nywele: amina thanks!!!! i'll return the love, but believe you were always on the google reader list ;)

@ mandypandy: aaah comic relief! thanks!!

wow this is amazing! I've never seen people so willing to admit that they have the same addiction as me! I buy makeup all the time. its tough to go a week without buying something new (or trying them out at MAC, Sephora, Macy's, or any other cosmetic counter...Rite Aid included).
I'm obsessed...I try not to buy too often but when I do...I go HARD! and I mean real hard like I'll buy face powders, eyeshadows, lip gloss AND lip stick..the works!
I def. own way more than i wear
OMG I am a Makeup Addict and I really need help! LOL And it doesn't seem to help that I am on Youtube and looking at everyone's Blogs about beauty and makeup. Help Me Please.... Be Blessed!
