Heh heh...it's like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I remember quite well. Did you read it? Charlie's parents worked at a toothpaste factory, screwing the caps on the tubes (okay it was a fictional story and a children's one at that). Anyhow so Charlie's family had no money. Charlie was fanatical about chocolate but they could buy chocolate only on his birthday. And they lived right near a chocolate factory--Willy Wonka's chocolate factory.
I saw the movie as well when I was a kid. It was nothing near as good as the book imo.
There is this lengthy description of Charlie getting his birthday chocolate bar. He'd look at it, smell it, pick it up, think about it...then open this teeny little corner of the wrapper and touch his tongue to the chocolate.
I'm not that badly off :) but yes, I remember that part of the book so well.
So I think we are similar. We can have luxury but we're aware that it's luxury. I like miiiiiiiiiiiiilking my luxury out.
Hey I did retrieve that Rizzo. I have the tube now. I got the Rizzo out of it. sigh What was I thinking? That color is so not me.
Don't forget Dain's MAC Library.
Hummm...I think that's one reason why I don't do red lipstick. I have a full mouth. It looks too much...I get clown mouth.
Weeeeeellllll....MAC is nice. I think they do the research; they actually try out the colors on lots of people. Hence, they have stuff that works on many different kinds of coloring. The only gripe I have with them: they don't do enough pink eyeshadows. Urban Decay must have 10 different kinds of pink. Pink is essential for green and hazel eyes and it also goes well with brown. So there should be a lot of it.
