If you have been following me for a couple years, you know that I used to be a total MAC girl. Yep, I said it. I was very VERY disappointed (dare I say heart broken) when I found they would forfeit their cruelty-free status to expand their market reach in 2012. I hate you MAC. But I also love you, which is why I now hate you for making me give you up because you’re corporate heads don’t understand ethics before money.
*sigh*. Rant over, now.
I’ve been hiding away my MAC (and a few other meanie brands) while I’ve explored and broadened my horizons with a ton of CF brands. I have a giant list of brands I’ve yet to test out and explore, in fact, I have to force myself to look away from all those colorful and hypnotic instagram posts of new and upcoming indie cosmetics!
I decided that it was time I really put some effort in to using up these meanie brands once and for all. I haven’t done as much work this year professionally as a MUA so it’s going to take a whole lot of makeup tutorials to get through these. In fact I’m not sure if it’s even possible. But I’m going to try.
I decided to do this visually, for those who follow my YT tutorials to see what might shades I might use (I am going to make a list of CF dupes as I go along).

Are you working to get rid of any meanie products? Or hey… do you have too much and need a break from buying??
Let me know your thoughts!
Cheers, Beauties
