    I bought some foundation, eye shadow & mascara last year, first time in 15 years. I have a lot of lipsticks though, that's all I generally use. Foundation & mascara are gone now, into a black hole in my daughter's bedroom, I used them once and before I put any of it on, one of my daughter's friends asked me, "do you know how to put on make-up", she even offered to come and help me to put it on properly, "not likely", says I, as she puts it on herself as if trowels are going out of business. :D

    I have one mabeline eyeshadow, i dream matte mousse foundation and pinl lip gloss (all mabeline) I only wear minimal makeup at weekends for going out.
    I never got into the whole make up thing to be honest.

    concealer stick (i have horrible bags under my eyes :( )
    loose powder
    eyebrow pencil
    5 eyeshadows
    mascara
    lip balm

    then i've a ton of other crap i never use. i've never actually bought any make up, my mum's a pharmacist and its pretty much all samples n stuff she brings home. had a nice eyeshadow tester pallette for ages (pretty much totally unused) tho its getting a bit manky now cause there's no cover.

    I have 5 foundation. 3 liquids, 1 I went off but will use up, 1 that I use now and a new one I'm trying out. The other are compacts for topping up during the day if needed.

    Other than that I have the usual bits and pieces that would fill a small peddal bin. I know that I don't have as much as some of my pals.

    I have 2 small glasses with brushes and clean them about once a month with a cleanser and then my good shampoo. Some of my brushes cost cira €50 so I treat them well as my own hair. :D

    I saw that link beforeand OMG that one needs help.:eek:

    don't worry i'm as bad! my makeup just gathers and i love to try new things too, i have somewhere between 6 eyeliners :D However, whenever i find a product I usually stick to it! It is so much cheaper :) As for eyeshadow... you can never have enough but make sure you have at least one stable colour like brown :)

    3 foundations, one is nearly empty and I don't use it anymore it's my old brand of foundation, one of them I also don't use as it's a smidgen to dark for me so only use one of them.
    3 powders - use two of them
    1 mascara
    1 eyeliner(rarely used)
    1 lipglosss(never used)
    a pallette of no.7 blushers and eyeshadows(never used)
    2 eyeshadows(rarely used)

    Usually only use a bit of foundation and powder to smooth out my skin tone and a bit of mascara.

    Is that a Solia train case?

    I own a great set of Mac brushes.

    I only wear make up for special occasions, and as it goes off I tend to kidnap my sisters.

    I don't know. It's from Sephora in America.

    i own a good bit but don't use mostly any of it, all i use really is foundation, used to use dream matte mousse by maybelline, it ran out so i got the rimmel version. It isn't half as good imo so I was in Madrid and there was a MAC shop so i bought some foundation for 32 euro, eyeliner for 16 euro and an eyeshadow brush for 24 euro.

    all i really put on in the morning is foundation, eyeliner and mascara,...and maybe some eyeshadow( can't be too noticeable for school ha!)
