Cosmetics Thread,, We've got fashion, but no makeup Options

[*Shelby-Zu*]

Hi.....

So..................I'm into cosmetics. And i love the fashion center on CB. But we have no cosmetics area? or do we? O.O
edit: hair / facial products too!! I TRY LOADS! :D

Either way, Discuss!
-products that you really like
-products you hate
-products you want to try
-products you'd like reviewed, etc

I study this, so ask me anything!! I'd love to try and help (: And I love saving up for things and trying them. So if you have something you'd like reviewed, please ask! I "collect" makeup, you could say.. I'm always up for buying and trying it!

Okay Hun,

First of all, i TOLD you why i bought them.
sorry not trying to attack you? i justified all my purchases,
then i said i felt bad for doing so because gigi informed me about all the labor and everything that comes out of it.

PSSH. Im so ignorant. mac is made in canada, i never stopped to think that the fake stuff was made by some little kid in china. SORRRRRRRRRRRRY. but im not gunna throw away the brushes after i bought them. what else am i to do with them but use them now, right? i bought them to see the difference between the two: real and fake.
I TOLD YOU. why ask.

secondly, you have SEEN on the internet of other consumers that have found a great difference in their quality? THATS THEIR OPINION, AND THIS IS MINE. I grew up, and am still growing up in the middle of hick-ville Montana. No one here knows what mac is, or Juicy, chanel, UD, ANYTHING, Im surprised people here know the difference between eye shadow and eye liner, and i can say- SOME DONT HERE. We dont have big fancy stores here or a big fancy mall, kay? we have lacome and clinque here as far as any HIGH makeup brands go... and none of us here even own it because we have to travel 3 hours to get to macys to get that stuff. People i grew up with including my self are ignorant, young, sheltered, kids, who dont know shit about what real opportunities are. All we know are rodeos, pigs, and drugs. Kay? I feel pretty lucky to have expanded my interests into so many things, one of them being makeup. yeah im not a guru, but i try and learn.

for some people, they dont mind buying fake mac, its no different to them than buying makeup at our ONE drugstore we have here. I bought it for another reason and didnt stop to even think about some poor kid in china.

i hate using forums for this very reason.
i say things, and everything gets turned around like it is now

"oh shelby-zu, go cry a river" yup thats what its gunna turn into. I just hate this kinda shit. its like two highschool girls going at it about who had the same pair of shoes first. its ridiculous.


so now i know why NOT to buy fake mac again, simply because gigi stated it nicely.
who the f*ck ever said i was supporting the companies? i bought the fake mac knowingly- but never once did i stop to think about WHO was making the products. is that my fault? sure. Am i going to do it again? no.

i only enjoyed the very last sentence of your post.
a lot of what you said before hand made it sound like you thought i was not aware of most it...packaging is different? thats a "duh" thing.
the fake e/s i have has little compartments underneath that you can open up and it has a small applicator and mirror inside, real mac obv does not. the top of the packaging is even different. why am i even explaining this to you? you already know it apparently. But wait, that does go back to me explaining why i bought it in the first place- TO SEE THE DIFFERENCE?
im sorry my opinion on the difference is much different than yours and apparently other people you've seen on the interent.

haha, whatever, im not saying any more about your post,
i justified myself, and said sorry for the fact that i was completely ignorant of some of the factors put into my purchases.
this obviously offends you. so sorry for that too.

your post completely offends me, too. so
im done here.

EDIT:

AND JUST SO YOU KNOW;
I HAVE FOUND A DIFFERENCE IN THE PIGMENT QUALITY WITH FAKE VS. AUTHENTIC. AUTHENTIC OBV IS MUCH BETTER.
AS FAR AS E/S AND BRUSHES- I STATED MY OPINION AND THATS IT.
