My Heart’s a’Flutter

I was taking a ride with my coworker when something shiny in the back of her car caught my eye…
Train Case
“What. Is. This?” I asked. “OOOHh!!! I wanna see this!” “Mind if I take a peek?” I’m so impressed with my politeness and calm controlled reaction. Usually by the time I took to say those three lines I would’ve already emptied out the entire contents of it and gone through half the stuff. But this is a coworker. I need to display some modicum of professionalism. “I HAVE to look at this OMG!!” *pop* I’m opening the box.

MAC Girl
Look at this makeup!!

Get a good close look. There is so much eyeshadow in here, I can’t imagine she doesn’t have at least one of every color!

“Oh that’s just my travel makeup I leave in my car.” “I have at lot more at home,” she says.

I fall over from the thought that there is more at home. I have Cover Girl blush. I have Maybelline mascara, which by the way, I do not recommend unless you like looking like a raccoon or you have eyelash curlers. I have about 16 different eyeshadow colors all “free gift with purchase” gotten. I have 9 eyeliners. I keep my stuff in a makeup bag no bigger than the two of my hands put together. This? This is crazy to me. I love it!! I’d be content with just the travel selection. Just. It’s not that much. Just oh a gajillion eyeliners, lip things, pigments (I don’t even know what those are or how to use them), and eye shadows.

I tell her about my drugstore makeup.
She says “I used Cover Girl when I was 12. With make up, I think you’re at about Jr. High level.”

“Yeah, no kidding. Try kindergarten.”

Train case brought to you by Target. Makeup by MAC.

  1. lol gawd when i first saw the pics i thought you had gone completely insane.yet i felt jealous of your insanity. :-P

  2. It is insane. I think if I were to create this box from scratch I’d have to spend well over $500. You can’t see them in the photos, but there were some Mac brush sets in the bottom and a few other eye shadow compact sets.

  3. yea but what i want to know is what difference does it make? it your coworker quite (and artificially) beautiful? put some shots of her here, with and without said makeup. :D

  4. She looks great with and without but her bf & I prefer the without look on her. But she’s an addict, what can I say? I have another coworker who’s as much of a makeup junkie as this girl and between the two of them, all I see all day long are purple, red, green, blue, brown, yellow, gold, shimmer eyelids. It is outta control! You’d think I work at the MAC display.
