So How Did That Work Out For You?

A year ago today I wrote...

Why...

I am slightly obsessed with make-up, I love the colors, the packaging, the names....I like to read about it, I like to wear it, and I love to look at it. However I need to hold my self accountable for my sometimes foolish obsession.
I have decided to try to follow some rules this year....
There are really only a handful of brands I truly find lovely and I plan to stick only with them.
I will stop wasting time and money on drugstore items as I am always disappointed, and frankly the packaging is often (always?) ugly.
I will not get caught in some hype/frenzy over a product or a brand.
I think these three rules alone will serve me well this upcoming year, well we shall see...

I do believe I pretty much stuck with the brands that I think are truly lovely and re-discovered an old friend in Chanel..
I stand by my position on the drugstore and while I was "pwned" earlier this year I have not wasted any more money on drugstore items..However I am still adoring all my UK drugstore lovelies...
I think I pretty much avoided the hype and frenzy this year although one of my favorite 2010 items was the MAC Dirty greasepaint stick. I remember  saying to A. I want to try it because I keep on reading about it on MUA.
