Yup... that is sad.
 
Mac Pigments-3($58.5)

Stila Lip Palette($30)

Bobbi Brown Lip Palette($40)

Mac Face And Body Foundation($30)

Stila Shimmer-3 ($42)

Cargo Glitter Collection($25)

Pop Beauty Eyecake($19)

Wow!!!

 
An entire brush set from Alcone Beauty. Alcone Beauty.com

I would then proceed to the MAC Counter for various lip glass colors and eyeshadows.

I would head to Rickys and buy their new trendy eyeshadows. They have various bases to vary the intensity effects. I'm quite sure that many makeup enthusiasts including MissJessie who are from New York know about Rickys which is located in Manhattan. Their lip lacquers are just fabulous!!

The Mattesse line is just great.

I would head to the Astarte Cosmetics Studio located in Midtown Manhattan and purchase various lip lacquers and skincare products. Their godiva lipstick is to die for. The bad girl red is just sensuous. Their blushes are wonderful eyeshadows. I just love their foundations.

I would order by LipSix cases from Azania Cosmetics.

I LOVE aromaleigh!!What do you like most of it all?

 
I would upgrade my traincase. Get a bunch of full size MAC brushes. A bunch of MAC shadows, a few MAC paints, some Chanel and Dior lippies. That would probably bring me over 250!

 
I should add that if you ask me the question next week the answer may be completely different LOL

 
Probably on some Vincent Longo Day/Play compact powder blushes and highlighters! They are so smooth and pretty but I keep passing them by because of the $$.

 
That gorgeous Stila The Grand Collection, definitely!

And the rest: Shu e/s, Chanel Glossimer(s), some Mac stuff (Fluidline, or Paint,..)

That would be great wouldn't it :icon_love

 
I would teleport myself to the US and buy:

Stila smudge pot(s)

MAC e/s and pigments - I can't decide on the colours since I want all of them

MAC brushes

I'd probably need more than $250, though.

 
I'd do a big order from Sweetscents and get all the colours I want. Then I'd spend the rest on MAC!

 
My top three choices would be:

either one huge (and I mean really huge) train case (the kind professionals own)

or:

A set of Chanel makeup brushes

or:

A whole bunch of Chanel skin care and makeup items

 
i would prolly spend it mostly on foundations

* lancome color id precise match weightless make-up

* chanel double perfection fluide matte reflecting make-up

* estee lauder liquid foundation

* almay blushes & almay lengthening mascaras

* christian dior diorshow mascara

* victoria's secret lip glosses and the lip plumper

* maybelline extreme moisture lipsticks (i love these :icon_love best lipstick ever, has SPF 15 and moisturizing for chapped lips) , i would buy the last 12 shades that i do not have lol they have 44 shades and i have bought 32 of them ... now 12 more to go

I would go to a makeup artist, have them do a few looks, and buy all the stuff these use....I could start completely from scratch

Have you ever tried them? I have seen these in a lot of magazines. I've heard a lot of good things about them and they are super cute. I've been thinking about getting one or maybe a few

A Touche Eclat, or 2

Kevyn Aucoin Skin Enhancer

Shu 24 carat lash curler

Some Shu LollyShines

Dior Show mascara

A couple of NARS Babydolls, my HG gloss!

Spend whatever may be left on false lashes, my addiction.

 
I would go with MicroDermabrasion. I have no current lemmings and have sooo much makeup. I think Microdermabrasion would give me the best results!
