theBalm: Nude'Tude and Balm Voyage
Urban Decay: Naked 1,2 and 3, Smoked, Feminine, Dangerous, Fun, Vice 2
Too Faced: Joy To The Girls, A Few of my Favorite Things, Be Merry Be Bright, Pretty Rebel
Lorac Pro Palette
NYX: Butt Naked Turn the Other Cheek, Love in Paris palette in "C'est La Vie
Kat Von D Spellbinding Eyeshadow Book
MAC: all 3 glitter/pigment sets
aaaaand I think that's it.
A few of them were given to me for Christmas...as if that justifies it haha. This is why I am officially on a no-palette-buy.
Anyone know when the next Palette Hoarders Anonymous is?
I would like to take this opportunity to point you in the direction of the
Monday Club. It's kind of an overbuying support group to encourage us to actually *use* our stuff. If I was in your position, I would pick one palette -- and *only* one palette -- to use for a whole week! Switch to a new one every Monday! I find that this plan really helps me figure out which palettes I actually love and which I now regret buying or at least feel indifferent towards.
(Full disclosure: I didn't specifically buy all of my palettes. Most of them came to me from subs. And one was a gift, a few came to me via swaps, a couple were from overbuying for a present when I realized that they wouldn't fit into the package, and one was the result of a really lucky trade -- for a super hideous ring, if I recall correctly -- on LBB. But I still have a *lot* of them on top of well over a hundred loose pigments, and I really need to actually *use* them instead of just admiring them.)
