Well, umm pretty good? In the beginning of 2011 I set the following "rules" and created a budget for another year of beauty. As for the budget while I remained under for the year some months I blasted way past the allotted sum. The 5 rules had a mixed success, here they are....
First, I will try to stick with the following three brands... Dior and Chanel for the majority of my purchases.MAC for "fun".(Although I do adore my BE it just seems I am creating another ombre palette of colors, therefore I will place BE on injured reserve status)
Rule one was a breeze to follow and I will continue in 2012. I still love my BE foundation and the few colors I kept after The Great Toss Off are lovely however I have no desire to add anymore but of course I reserve the right to change my mind.

Second, I will continue my ban on drugstore items unless of course they are from the UK
Rule two was also a breeze if it makes me a snob, it makes me a snob and that is totally cool.Third, will continue to try and fight the hype and frenzy certain brands and products reach.
Rule three? Ugh...I love my Naked palette so and yeah will probably get Naked 2 as well as for other types of hype and frenzy I will try and put up up the good fight.
Fourth, the lipgloss/stick buying must be curtailed. While I would be devasted to see "pan" on any of my "powder" products, mainly because it would look really ugly I do need to use up my lip products before they go bad....So unless the color is just totally unique I am quite sure that I have something that will be virtually identical.
Rule four? Whatever...I like lipstick and lipgloss and if I don't buy variations on the same color I am cool with it.
Fifth and Final, I will continue to find and use only what works...Not "force" products to do what they cannot do on their own.
Rule five was a breeze as well. I will never understand the need to make something work...
cut your losses-toss it off-and move on.
