I saw this beauty tag somewhere, I don't remember where but I think the total was $100. I decided to remix it to $1000!! I was thinking $1000 is a lot of cash and a lot of makeup. This seems tricky but I'm sure I can find something to buy with every cent of the money. I basically thought of all the things I'd like to have as staple items for my collection and makeup kit!
You'd expect some huge list, but in actuality this list really made me realize how costly us makeup girls can be when we want good quality products. There might be a few tweaks with this list because I hate having two or more of nearly the same product...IE. Yellow liquid liner by X brand and another almost identical yellow liquid liner by Y brand..to have both would be wasting space.
Can you imagine that I did zero product searching except for price & name check and the nyx lipliner names? All of these are literally items that I keep in my head as wants. I know..I'm insane. Plus you have to admit wishlists are awesome to keep just so you or someone else can refer back to them when shopping! **I've decided to use this as a guide for when I buy makeup, so I'll be crossing out items as I buy them**
