Of course showing you everything in it would take a lifetime - so let's zero in on the second drawer on the bottom left hand side which is where I keep all of limited edition palettes and pretties. These are ones never to be touched by human hand, only to be looked at and admired.
My husband is at a total loss as to the point of having a drawer full of items whose purpose it to not be used - but he's a man so what does he know! I know you all understand so come on in and stay awhile!

You suspect there is more don't you? Sigh - you're right but I'm embarrassed to admit just how much more there is! For starters, I used to be very into the MAC holiday palettes but they're a whole other post... there is also some random brands that I don't necessarily collect but sometimes have palettes so pretty that I can't resist but I figure you've seen enough of my sick obsession for one day...

ReplyDeleteHoly smokes - everything you showed here is so gorgeous! I would love to steal your collection ;)
ReplyDeleteI think that Pink Sith is going to be flying to Canada to steal these!! I actually had several of those but I don't anymore. You make me feel less guilty though for my hoarding since you share it.
ReplyDeleteI have purposely kept my address a secret from Elvira for that very reason! ;-) I'm concerned now, where did yours go?
DeleteBest, Lisamarie
Such pretty palettes - I can see why you'd keep them just to look at. The Lancome ones are gorgeous - and now I'm getting the urge to collect some more Chanel - good enabling LOL :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm here to help! ;-)
DeleteBest, Lisamarie
wow! those limited edition products are gorgeous!
ReplyDeletehttp://stellar-makeup.blogspot.ca
wow I love everything! Please do tell where you got that beautiful white makeup table?
ReplyDeleteThe rest of the room is a custom closet so when they built that, I had them build me the dressing table because I couldn't find one with enough drawers in a store! ;-)
DeleteBest, Lisamarie
What a gorgeous setup! Real Hollywood-style glamor. As for your hands-off, drawer of wonderful pretties, little does your husband know that one day you will be able to pay for a very comfortable retirement when you auction off those goodies on eBay. :^)
ReplyDeleteAuction off? What are you talking about?! I'm being buried with them! ;-)
DeleteBest, Lisamarie
Wow, what gorgeous palettes!!! More importantly...you vanity...I LOVE it!!!
ReplyDeleteI have to admit that I don't see the benefit in purchasing and not personally using your make-up. However, since I am having the pleasure of getting to see these - some for the first time - then I guess it makes sense. Still, I'm with your husband on this one. Thanks for sharing:)
ReplyDeleteI love those Chanel pearls - I never saw them and have been using Chanel for many years - like since the late 80's - I would use them everyday - I want those beautys - so jealous
ReplyDeleteForget the makeup, I am in love with your dressing table! Was it custom?
ReplyDeleteYup! I couldn't find anything in store with as much storage space and drawers as I wanted!
DeleteBest, Lisamarie
Wow, what a stunningly gorgeous treasure of a collection! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your insanity - LOL :D
ReplyDeleteVery impressive set up you've got there, and the palettes are so gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThe only pretty palette I have (which I'm currently using) is the Hello Kitty Graffiti one. You've inspired me to want to get the upcoming NARS x Andy Warhol collection palettes.
Thanks for sharing your collection and makeup area!
LOve the gloss charms...mmmm.
ReplyDeleteThat is just..wow..so many pretties all together :)
ReplyDeleteMy goodness I am in love with your dressing table and setup!
ReplyDeleteWow! Where did you get your dresser?!! I absolutley love it!
ReplyDeleteWow--this is seriously AMAZING! I am in awe :)
ReplyDeleteLOVE LOVE LOVE!!!
ReplyDeleteThe makeup is impressive but what I really love is your dressing table. I'm trying to figure out how I could incorporate that, or a close approximation, into the area my pathetic makeup table sits.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty. I am amazed to see two items I have - Jeans de Chanel and the pastel Perles. I, too, love your set up; alas, I have no space for such luxury!
ReplyDeleteI am in love with your dressing table! Can I ask where you got it?
ReplyDeleteOooooh - thanks for sharing. It is great to know that other people have ridiculous amount of make up too :-) Where did you get the Chanel Lumiere d'Artifices Iridescent Powders for Eyes and Cheeks from?
ReplyDeletethose are super duper lovely babies <3
ReplyDeleteHi, would you possibly sell those Chanel powders? Please let me know.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
