Breakdown, more like. It would be pure lunacy to ditch any of my makeup now, but as the days are winding down here at 365 Fashion Rehab (yay!) and my makeup collection is slowly but surely falling apart, I'm beginning to wonder if I have a choice. First to go were not one, not two, but
three cracked eye shadows. I dropped them. Yes, all three of them. I can't believe it - I enter Fashion Rehab and suddenly become a complete klutz? Good grief! Then, I discovered one of the few nail polishes I own,
OPI's My Private Jet has almost completely evaporated! Did you know nail polish could evaporate??? And finally this morning when I was getting ready, one of my favourite lipsticks (MAC Honeyflower) broke! And it didn't just crack, it broke right off and fell on the floor.
If only I could go out right now and replenish my sad cosmetics case, these would be the top 5 things in my basket...
Benefit Posie-Tint for cheeks and lips -
a newer version of their cult classic Bene-tint
Neutrogena MoistureShine Lip Sheers -
I really love these because of the SPF 20
MAC Liberty of London Beauty Powder -
My love of Liberty's is well-documented by now, no?
DuWop Crush Molton Eye Shadow trip -
To replace the three I broke. Plus mettalics are so fun!
OPI Nail color in Monsooner Or Later -
I have always been a big fan of red nails. I really love this updated tomato red.
At least spring is coming. It's easier to go without makeup when the sun is shining, right? (eek!)
Love, P

dont forget Benefit Highbeam to go over the Posetint! x
Just dropping by to say that I really love your blog! You've inspired us to think about our own spending behaviour and well, we're not going completely cold turkey like you girls, but we also started blogging to make budgetting more fun. Hope you make it to the end! xxx
i love posietint, and highbeam! you reminded me to use them more often! =)
once rehab is over, you should check out the benefit "legally bronze' kit that they have at sephora - it has the high beam, hoola bronzer, the gilded pencil, and the badgal mascara in brown. I feel like its one of the best deals that they have right now - it's all full size and somehow only $35!
Yay! I am so glad that you all love Benefit as much as I do. One of the only things I love more is reader recommendations! I'll def be checking out their Legally Bronze kit and their Highbeam - they both sound awesome!
Thanks!!!
Love, P
I just dropped my blush compact on the floor the other day, and while I am "allowed" to buy more, it's truly a sad feeling when your makeup is lying on the floor, in pieces of unsalvageable, useless chunks. The high-pitched shriek of women exclaiming "Noooooo!" when this happens with blush and eyeshadow is probably familiar to many!
Wise words spoken by an obviously wise woman...
Love, P
