Someone Please Talk Me Out Of This

Could someone please be the voice of reason and tell me I don't NEED the Bobbi Brown Smokey Nudes shadow palette? I really don't need anymore makeup but it's so pretty and I'm so weak! I didn't buy anything this weekend from Skinn so I feel like I need to reward myself! I know I need some professional help!

If I were you, I would order the palette. I'm using reverse psychology on you.

Did it work? LOL

Sleep on it. Think of what else you could use the money for. Maybe a new scarf?

Do it. You'll feel better. Life is too short.

For me now, I'd rather feel sad that I didn't buy something over buyers remorse. I hate buyers remorse. I get over the sad much easier.

Is this an LE palette?

If it's limited edition, then yes, buy it! I missed a few NARS cheek palettes that were LE and I'm still kicking myself over it!

If not, don't sweat it and save your money - you can always go back and buy it later!

Personally, I think BB is one of the most overpriced lines out there for what it is. I bought one of her eye shadow palettes and it was the biggest waste of $$, IMO--there was zero "wow" factor. Just a nice, neutral palette, but not very special. There is nothing about this palette that you couldn't duplicate with less expensive and just-as-nice brands. I say walk on by...

Think of having money in your pocket as your reward. You will not miss this purchase, and there will always be another chance to purchase a deal, usually right around the corner.

Another idea is that you can go into your make-up cabinet and re-organize and take inventory of what you already have. After everything is all organized and beautiful you will probably realize that you do not need another purchase.

If you want a special reward, go out and have a nice cup of coffee and a little relaxing time just for yourself!

Good luck!
