My 375 day old make-up collection!

I love seeing other people’s makeup collection, but it leaves me feeling like I have no makeup myself. Very bad for my wallet! That’s why I decided to post my own, to remind myself that it is actually quite large – especially since it’s only 375 days old. Yes, that’s right – I had no interest in wearing makeup before that.

I remember my first MAC haul like it was yesterday. It had to be ordered online and be picked up, because I was short on time while travelling. I got: Petticoat MSF, Sketch, Plumage and Meet the Fleet eyeshadows, Blooz eyekhol, the 187 brush, the brush cleaner, Frostlite Fluidline and an eye brush set. Score! When picking out these items I had no idea which colors suited me and what I should get. I later regretted buying all dark eyeshadows instead of one light, medium and dark shade to create a look.

Let’s start with some miscellaneous face stuff:

    Just remember, that we all have to start somewhere. Also, for a 375 day old collection, it is quite huge and lovely too!!
