Beauty Stash: Non-MAC Collection as of June 2008
I meant to take these photos ages ago, because I finally organized everything back in March, but alas, time is precious and I wasn’t able to find a chunk of time until this afternoon! This post contains photos and brief descriptions of my non-MAC beauty products.
Just an aside–I just sifted through and donated 52 pounds of beauty products to friends, family, and my local battered women’s shelter (none of which is pictured here). I definitely urge you to give to your local shelters whenever you have new or unused personal care products!
Check out all of the photos…

My collection looks pitiful next to yours! I had better go shopping…
LOL! This has been a long time collecting 😉
so sweet of you to donate..I donate clothes every year.
Awesome 🙂 I donate clothes, too!
how is it that you afford all this! Where ever you work I need to get a job there!
LOL, I have been buying makeup since 2004, so it’s a long time love affair. It didn’t just happen overnight 😉
=O Lucky girl!! I wish I could play with all that, too!! Just wondering, do you purchase every product or is some of that given to you?
Hey Chloe! I purchase a lot of things, but there’s definitely enough that was given to me, too. These days, I do receive more than purchase (at least, compared to six months ago or so!).
Man… wishing I was a battered woman near your local women’s battered shelter just so I could get some of your goodies…just kidding 🙂
Seriously though, I also give away stuff to friends and family when I start to notice my 2 jumbo comsetic luggages no longer close…and before you know it, the vicious cycle begins all over again. *sigh*
lol, Kharina! I’m like… running out of people to give products to! A lot of times I just test something once or twice, and it takes a LOT for me to add something to my staples (like for skincare).
I think that is a great idea to donate products to a women’s shelter – I’m gonna check if the ones in my city take donations. Now I know what to do with all those gifts with purchase colours I never use!
Awesome! It’s a really great way to do good 🙂
i just love the chanel packaging
i adore the CC haha thats why i bought some chanel sunglasses haha
The CC logo is so classic 🙂
