    Weirdest product: toss up between the Monistat anti-chafing cream (NOT yeast infection cream) as a face primer (kinda like Smashbox photofinish) and eyebrow gel. I use it…but I don’t know if it makes a difference.

    Last product I NEEDED: New mascara. I want to try that tubing mascara by blinc, but I just don’t want to shell out the money for it….I think I ended up just getting LashBlast.

    Product I want but can’t have: I really want China Glaze’s “Recycle” but I can’t find it anywhere. Any advice?

    Weirdest product you’ve bought: The wierdest product I ever bought was probably the UV glow kit, I love it though lol but still have to find more uses for it!

    Last product you needed: The last product I needed was MAC Fix+, I have heard amazing things and am going to buy it today!

    Product you want, but can’t have: La Mer cream, I would love their prodcut line but alas it is well out of my budget!

    Weirdest product you’ve bought: For me it’s gotta be the Frostlite Eyeliner from MAC. Trying to find a way to use it, but still without success, but I was so drawn to it, I had to own it.

    Last product you needed: Mascara, and frankly I went with Diroshow and I am very happy with it.

    Product you want, but can’t have: Sooo many “old” pigments that are from before my “MAC time”, trying to track down on ebay etc. I want Dolled Up, Sweetie Pie, Forrest Green, Black Ore Solar Bits, Barbie Loves MAC, Alexander McQueen Paint Pots (two down, on to go), Reflects Teal Glitter, Reflects Pearl Glitter and many many more LOL.

      Hey! About the products you want, I’m think that reflects teal (maybe transparent teal…I’m not sure) is a pro item which you can order over the phone from them. Also, I think you should definitely see if you can find a Cosmetics Company Outlet near you. In my local one, I have seen ALL of the McQueen paint pots and several discontinued pigments. Good luck!

      I need to let my frostlite dry out a little – It’s awkward because it’s so creamy….

      Frostlite makes me sad since it isn’t waterline safe :(

    Weirdest item: .99 cent black liquid liner … just don’t try it :)

    Last item: The last time I went to MAC I got refills on my studio fix powder, refined golden bronzer, and fling eye brow pencil

    Product I want but can’t have: MUFE HF foundation and powder. I need to finish up my Estee Lauder and MAC foundations first.

    Weirdest product you’ve bought:
    Vitamin E stick. I found it at Whole Foods, and I remembered seeing it on Chaptastic, so I bought it. It’s an amazing chapstick.

    Last product you needed:
    Ecotools Retractable Kabuki Brush. The quality is stunning, not unlike the MAC 182. And only for $7.99!

    Product you want, but can’t have:
    I really wanted to try MAC Select Tint, but apparently it’s being discontinued. :(

    Weirdest product you’ve bought: I will agree with the Monistat Chafing Gel as a primer. I’m sure if someone looked in my makeup stash, they would definitely wonder why that might be in there.

    Last product you needed: New mascara. I purchased Max Factor 2000 Calorie and Loreal Voluminous Carbon Black. This is my perfect formula for gorgeous lashes. It even beats Diorshow and Lashblast.

    Product you want, but can’t have: A couple of items from Chanel. With the economy the way it is, I just can’t justify spending so much on makeup right now. I’ll have to stick with MAC, Stila, Urban Decay, etc.

    - Weirdest product you’ve bought:  Not sure!  I seem to buy many “weird” and unconventional beauty products/make-up colors.  I’d have to say, the most recent (not necessarily the weirdest) one would be the YSL lip gloss.- Last product you needed:  None of the stuff I bought recently was needed”-).  It was wanted though!!!  I have been going overboard:  the almost whole Emanuel Ungaro MAC collection and the entire MAC Pearlliners, The Giorgio Armani LE Python palette, the 5 LE fragrances from Gwen Stefani’s Harajuku girls…- Product you want, but can’t have:  Way too many!  My list never seems to go down.  The very luxurious Guerlain Orchidee Imperiale face cream ($450 can.) I have been wanting for almost 2 years…  I swear, one day, I will get it.  Plus, many La Mer products.

    Weirdest: Ojon conditioner. OK ok, I know it’s a very popular product, but it is WEIRD because it smells like cigarette butts floating in old coffee, or something. weird!

    Needed: Moisturizer…cold weather has arrived here! I got Logona’s Free moisture cream.

    Can’t have: hmm…maybe Nars Zulu nail polish? Or the purple Fafi paint pot.

    Weirdest: Umm….can’t think of anything weird. Maybe my bright Ben Nye yellow and orange eyeshadows, because I don’t usually wear really bold eye looks.

    Needed: Nail polish remover, if that counts. i was all out and needed to redo my toes.

    Can’t have: Almost everything lately – gotta be better about not spending so much.

    Weirdest product you’ve bought: some weird transparent mascara with glitter, from U-NUCO, that does nothing because it never dries and everything just gets rubbed off! Oh. It smells like glue too.
    Last product you needed: moisturizer that really gets absorbed! And I still need it. GRRR.
    Product you want, but can’t have: Anything that gets rid of every single blemish on your face. I can’t get it because… oh wait. It doesn’t exist :(

    1. Chartruese Gloss from MAC. I love Chartruese, but it’s something in my kit that never gets used and applies thicker than I expected or like. I’ll find use for it one day though.

    A close second is MAC’s Eyeglass in Tarmac, released long before I became interested in the brand. I do get use out of this when I want to do a greasy, smoky black eye- the epitome of the once beloved heroin chic.

    2. Where to begin…

    New foundation, cotton balls, nail polish remover, a decent eye shader brush…

    I did pick up some empty spray bottles, so I’m at least doing something. That and some essential neutral and matte eyeshadows.

    3. YSL Pur Black gloss. I can’t justify spending that amount of money on something I’ll rarely use.

      YSL uses lead in their lip products – I was told by a birdie who works for the company…. cause I mentioned that I wanted it after seeing it here,,,,,

        Lead in lipsticks isn’t really an issue, IMO! It seems mostly propelled by instilling fear. Not to say you can’t make a lead-free lipstick, but the amount of lead found in lipsticks is so trace that you will encounter more in your day to day life.

    Weirdest product you’ve bought: red liquid liner by Vincent Longo – so stunning and RED!
    Last product you needed: the way I buy makeup I never need anything, except this summer I needed darker shades of my prep and prime eye and foundation (ooh so tan!)
    Product you want, but can’t have: If I want it I get it – except I refuse to pay 60 bucks for that Napoleon Peris pink boudoir brush….. it’s fierce but too much for a brush in my book.

    Weirdest product you’ve bought: Goatmilk hand lotion. It actually is super moisturizing, and is a great foot creme at night!

    Last product you needed: Do I ever really need anything? Hehe. I guess I could say MAC SPF 50.

    Product you want, but can’t have: More Dazzleglass.
