    I have oily skin (this includes my eyelids) and I've found that the only eyeshadow brands that don't crease on me (even with eye primer) are MAC and Mary Kay. Mary Kay tends to get a lot of hate, but if I don't have to wonder if my shadow is creased, I'm going to use it. :smile:

    Really?!! I adore Urban Decay to death but by the end of the day I barely have any one because I have been blessed with oily skin... Gonna have to try MAC! Nobody sells Mary Kay here.

    Both Naked pallets are amazing, certain colors from both are my go tos. I also love Too Faced or Smashbox.

    I live in a rural area and never hear from makeup junkies lol... ULTA is my fave stop when I hit a big city. =)

    If you don't already, try a primer before putting on eyeshadow. It makes a world of difference. I like Tarte but UD and Smashbox have good ones also (that I want to try).

    Thanks to this thread, I just went online and ordered Naked2 and Smashbox photo finsh primer from Sephora. My name is Patti, and I'm a makeup junkie.

    Ditto.

    Except, you know, my name isn't Patti.

    My make-up is ridiculous! My sister looks at my make-up bag and see's what I pull out and she feels like her jaw hits the floor everytime.

    I am a huge fan of SmashBox, Urban Decay, Bobbi Brown, Mac and Make-up Forever.

    I have more makeup than I could ever possibly use, but my real weakness is nailpolish. China Glaze is my favorite brand, I have 115 bottles of that one brand alone, plus 100+ bottles of other brands.

    I love China Glaze! I am also hooked on Sinful!

    My daughter has been a make-up artist for 4 years. She was completely obsessed and finally went to work for MAC. Oh the nice freebies we got!! After she worked retail for 3-1/2 years, she decided to go to a 8-5 job but she still does weddings, special events, etc. It is very lucrative as a side interest. I like to put it on and other than that I don't care. I buy drugstore stuff and always have.

    Does nail polish go off or go out of date?

    Just wondering as I want to try some different colours but I wouldn't use them a lot. x

    I use Bourjeois, it has a great applicator (super thin for great lines) and dries in less than 30 seconds. It comes in many colors including glittered colors and has a great matte black.

    I am also a makeup junkie! I love Urban Decay eye shadow, Essie and OPI nail polish, Makeup Forever eyeliners (their aqua liner is an awesome liquid liner that's actually easy to use) and just fell in love with one of their lipsticks but it was sold out, so I'll have to go back in a few weeks. :( MAC is usually my go to for lipstick. But the one thing I absolutely cannot live out is my Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick. I once went to 4 different Holt Renfrew stores trying to find somewhere that had it in stock... I ended up having to leave work for an hour to rush uptown to the one I put on hold over the phone... I'm sure how I would have survived otherwise!

    I'm a Sephora VIB ... thats how much I spend on Makeup... My fave brands are TARTE, NARS, MAC, Makeup Forever, Urban Decay and Bobbi Brown. I get so happy when I walk into Sephora or MAC store. I love playing with looks and color. I have the original Naked Palette and I 'd marry it if I could.

    It can get pretty thick and hard to use if it's not closed tight enough, but I have a few bottles that are at least 12 years old and are still in great condition.
