So, for some reason I took pictures of the contents of my makeup drawers (bought from WH Smith last year, inspired by
Anna's similar ones).
If nothing else, I can report back that the blinding glare of an entire drawerful of MAC lipsticks seriously confuses the auto setting on my camera, as you can see below...
 |
| Foundations and blushers, feat. NARS, MAC, Illamasqua, Topshop, Bourjois, Benefit, et al |
 |
| Hilariously amateur photo of MAC lipsticks - and yes, there are two layers. I have a problem |
 |
| Lipliners & glosses etc. Amusingly, I don't even count myself as a lipgloss-wearer |
 |
| Mixed bunch of eyeliners. I usually wear the L'Oreal liquid liner. Fail. |
 |
| Eye shadows - heavy on the cream shadow side here, palettes elsewhere! |
 |
| Lipsticks, including MAC overspill. I have no excuse. |
And this isn't even everything I own - I have a separate makeup bag for stuff I'm currently using every day. And my two MAC eyeshadow palettes and UD Naked palette are elsewhere. OH LORD. Is this normal? Spending ban needed pronto, especially on the lipstick front. Because nobody needs that many lipsticks. Not even in a nuclear winter. I couldn't face photographing my nail polish! Another time, when I'm feeling stronger...
Anyway, I think my next post will be on my favourite high street makeup. More words than pictures this time, honest!
Till next time,

PS. I really hope this doesn't come across as in any way boastful - apart from sheer boredom at sitting at home revising contract law all day, I was motivated by a desire to remind myself what the hell I actually own before I'm tempted to buy yet more, and encourage myself to use more of all this stuff rather than grabbing the same bits & pieces every morning. I may do a lipstick of the day "challenge" to shake things up in those groaning lipstick drawers, for one thing!
