Revisited: 10 Signs You’re a Beauty Addict

One of the best bits of delivering a daily dose of beauty bumf to you lot is the comments that gather under each post. Witty, intelligent and always hilarious. It’s nice to see makeup mavens flock together and share our passion for copious amounts of lipsticks, MUJI storage and the newest ‘OMG, HG, need-it’ products. Case in point, last week’s ’10 Signs You’re a Beauty Addict’ post which had me belly-laughing for a full five minutes while taking in all the comments. Some where just too good not to share, so here’s a selection of my favourite beauty addict anecdotes:

Nita in the comments – “The makeup bag gets bigger in size every time I buy a new one, so I won’t have to cram everything in. BUT I still end up cramming everything in because I decided to carry around few more items, since there’s more room.”

Caroline on Facebook – “The fact my postman has my mobile number to alert me to new package deliveries.”

Ella in the comments – “Getting Bruno Mars spellchecked to Bruno Nars.”

Jo in the comments – “The phrase ‘Gift With Purchase’ causes a surge of adrenaline, second only to the phrase ‘Limited Edition’.”

Ky in the comments – “You are on the infinite and unending hunt for the perfect taupe eyeshadow. No matter how many you own, SOMEHOW each one could be improved upon.”

Anna in the comments – “My toothbrush holder stores my most used makeup brushes, no room for the actual toothbrush…”

Sylvia in the comments – “For me, one of the weirdest signs that I’m a beauty addict is that I need specific kinds of cotton to do different tasks. The soft square Shiseido ones for toner, Equate brand quilted cotton rounds for eye makeup removal, Target exfoliating ones for the face… the list goes on.”

Alison in the comments – “You buy four copies of the same magazine for all the varieties of free nail polish/hand cream/lip balm.”

You guys – you do make me chuckle. And, yep I’m guilty as charged on all the above counts.
