Check out my brand new FaceBook page where I post pictures of the different types of Eyeshadow that I wear everyday, coupon codes, sales I hear about, tips, ideas, and useful links.\nhttp://www.facebook.com/pages/ThePinkLadyJ/309072475758\n\nI mentioned it in my last collection video but I forgot to mention it in this one. Plano moulding company is the same company that makes kaboodles, but the tackle boxes are way bigger for a way better price and much more organizable because they have better slots and compartments\n\nThese are some of the common questions people get when posting vids of their collections. \n\nQ: Why do you need THAT much makeup? You only have 1 face you cant wear it all.\nA: Why do we need so many clothes hanging in our closets, we only have one body dont we? The answer is SELECTION! People sometimes like having a selection. Of course I cant wear it all at once. Do you listen to all your CDs at once? No, but I bet you like having a lot to choose from. Its the same with makeup. The more you have to choose from the more creative and original you can be.\n\nQ: Why would you waste your money?\nA: You know its very unfair. People who collect makeup are villainized for their hobby. If I collected stamps, DVDs, art, clothes or video games, people would be much less likely to criticize me for those interests but for some reason theres something inherently wrong with someone wanting to collect and spend money on makeup. As if collecting makeup automatically means youre vain, greedy, or have some sort of an insecurity problem. Nobody ever believes that it just makes one happy. Whats wrong with enjoying something that just makes you happy? I collect makeup because I like having just one more (of my many ways) to creatively express myself. I look forward to trying something new every morning. Its the little things that make life special and fun and so whats so wrong with enjoying makeup if it makes you happy. Im not hurting anyone, or myself, but still makeup enthusiasts are treated as though they should be ashamed. \n\nQ/Statement: You dont need makeup, natural is better; you dont need that to look good or use makeup to get a man. \nA: Lets get one thing straight I dont wear makeup for ANYONE but me. I dont wear makeup to rope myself a man, I already have one. I dont wear it because I need it. I wear it because I LIKE it and it makes me happy. I dont wear it to look natural, natural BORES me. I like bright and crazy because thats just my style. If you dont like bright and you wouldnt be caught dead wearing it thats fine, to each their own but this is what I like and Im not hurting anyone and I am quite aware of how it looks, and I wouldnt have it any other way. \n\nQ: How much did that all cost?\nA: Not that much actually. 1st of all I didnt collect it all in one day. Ive gathered it bit by bit over time. 9 out of 10 times I only buy something when its on sale. Im a proud cheapskate. I only buy something retail when its limited edition or prone to selling out fast and Im paranoid that if I wait itll be gone. Im usually pretty patient though. If you sign up for newsletters to lots of makeup sites you get notified of sales or coupon codes (I get a lot of newsletters from makeup sites). I buy most off the internet or on ebay to get the best deals and Im a total bargain hunter. Sometimes my grandma will get me some for Christmas or birthday (shes not too creative otherwise) but most I pay for myself. How? Well I have a job. Im a full time student with a part time job. I dont blow my whole check. I get paid every two weeks and once or twice a month Ill buy myself a little something for all my hard work and suffering. God, the suffering!!! I dont know an exact dollar amount because I havent exactly kept track for all these years. But I guarantee you most people spend more on their cell phones in a month than I do on makeup - by a LOT! And I like and use my makeup more than my phone. \n\nQ: Isnt that stuff going to get old and bad?\nA: Eyeshadow has a pretty long shelf life compared to most makeup. If it discolors or smells funny then its obviously bad but if not its okay. And Ive never gotten sick from my older shadow before so maybe I have tough skin or maybe people are more germaphobic than they need to be. Liquid/moist type makeup can go bad after a year or two and should be changed periodically but powder based makeup lasts quite a while so Im not worried about it and Ill gladly take my risks. \n\nDo you have a question?
