Well I meant one box lol. I dont know exactly how many pieces are in the box, but one box. And the wipes too, one packet. I am *not* counting these things individually! Now that I'm seeing the numbers like that....maybe 22 skincare items is a little extreme. Its certainly a lot less than what I used to have though!

[#3]

I'm doing a good job working at using up what I have. 2 of my cleansers are half empty, and 2 of my scrubs are almost empty. Since I use scrubs once a week or less though...they hang around a long time even if they are "almost empty" hehe. In the summer when its triple digits I use a scrub 2-3 times a week. But now its cloudy/rainy looking outside and my skin is dry.

My mom has an *insane* amount of skincare. She has this 3 drawer organizer dedicated to just her backup skincare.

Guess I know where I got that from.

[#5]

I can't say the same thing. My mom hardly has any makeup and wears it just for special occasions. I'm the opposite. I'm the type of person that won't walk out the front door without at least some makeup on.

[#6]

I've been wearing makeup everyday lately as well. I just love working with different colors and trying out new looks!

Makeup wise...if I get a bunch of face products and mascara...I would be set for *years*.

triciaann---I dont use the clear lip base, I only own one lip tar (anime, bright fuschia pink) and I either use a lip butter under it or a lipgloss over it. I really love to use my Rimmel London Stay Glossy lipgloss in always lovely, its a sheer pink and its so moisturizing and not sticky at all. I love using it on its own or over other pink lipsticks. So gorgeous.

triciaann---I've really been loving Rimmel London lately, especially their stay matte pressed powder and those stay glossy lipglosses. I also heard amazing things about their lipsticks and shadows.

I'm a sucker for lipsticks, its my absolute favorite makeup item. I have more shadows and cheek products, but lipsticks are a must for me! Its the only thing I reapply throughout the day so I go through tubes rather quickly. I really love my Ecotools detailer brush, so so good for bolder/brighter lipsticks like bright pinks or reds. It has a really precise and slim tip, I used it with my fuschia colored occ lip tar yesterday and had no problem applying the color with this brush. LOVE.

I am a sucker for lip products and used to be a sucker for eye shadows... except I don't wear much of any make up anymore, but LOVE lip products

Oy......methinks I need to get a organizer for my skincare as well. I have all my stuff in random makeup bags around the bathroom and I keep finding stuff I forgot about! Okay, I cleaned/organized everything, and recounted......and updated my numbers in the above post. Yikes.

[#16]

Okay what is UP with the no-eyebrow look on models lately? The emerald pic on sephora.com, the new nars ad etc.

Me no like---eee.

[#17]

Maybe to balance out the crazy eye make up? It may have been too much to have a strong brow and strong eye. I am not going to, personally, opt for that look though lol

[#18]

um....I feel stupid saying this....but I want to do this counting thing right. I found some more stuff, in a reusable sephora shopping bag, in the back of my bathroom cabinet.

I found a face oil, moisturizer, wipes, and cleanser. Guess I need to redo the counting thing.

*hides in embarassment*

It's more of an avant garde, "ugly pretty" thing in fashion rather than for us normal folks. Personally my eyebrows are so...full of vigor let's say, that even if I shave them you can still see "eyebrows" of grey area and black stubbles.

Oh man you are missing out! On both Ecotools and the lip tars! The Ecotools are my absolute fave brushes, those and real techniques, and I like them a lot better than my long time fave Bare Escentuals ones, which are super fantastic as well. The lip tars are so so amazing, they do dry out my lips so I have to put a lipbalm under it, or a gloss over it or its not comfortable to wear. But they are so luxe, pigmented, its like a mega liquid lipstick thats matte, and you need the smallest drop for full coverage all over lips. Some of the colors are......*out there* and more for fashion then everyday wear, but they also have plenty of everyday colors.
