12 Signs You're A Beauty Addict

1/12/2017

​I think if you A. Know me personally B. Follow my Social Media C. Read my blog  you probably get the idea that I am a slight beauty addict – slight being used very loosely. If you fancy doing some self diagnostics you can read these signs and see if you add up to the same crazy eyeshadow, skincare, highlighting hoarding freak as me! How many can you relate to?
Picture
1. Nipping into Boots for tampons and coming out with 3 carrier bags and a trolley full of make-up. The 3 for 2's were to good to miss!
2. If your make-up storage is more organised than your life. 
3. When your "No Make-up, Make-Up" consists of 23 different products and a setting spray. 
4. If someone asking you "Why Do You Wear So Much Make-Up?" makes you want to pull them up a chair and give them an hour long speech as to why they should SHUT UP.
5. When you have enough highlighters to douse an entire country 10 times over, but you still manage to justify another one. "Yes I might already have a few gold shimmer shades, but this one has a slight pinky undertone, which I might need at some point" Yurp.
6. Purchasing something you REALLY don't need, because oh, hey look, the packaging is stunning and Instagram worthy. Okay Hun.
Picture
7. When doing your Make-up ready for a night out, is actually more exciting than the night-out itself. Sorry friends.
8. When 99% of your Christmas Wish List/Birthday List consists of make-up and the other 1% is Money to spend on make-up.
9. Crawling into bed drunk at 3am but you still manage to find the time to cleanse, tone and moisturise. Even if you do it in the wrong order. It's the thought that counts. 
10. The happiest day of your life so far was the day you entered your first Sephora, then brought the whole shop, naturally.
11. When you can justify £52.00 on an eye shadow palette but Sainsbury's can p*ss off if they think i'm paying £4.50 for a block of cheese.
12. Your going on a "Weekend Away" but take 4 different eyeshadow palettes,  5 different pairs of lashes, and 3 perfumes, because hey you don't know what mood you'll be in.
Please tell me you guys can relate to?!

I was laughing so hard reading this Georgie - number 11 had me in tears. I relate to every single one, definitely a fellow beauty addict over here. I remember the day I first entered Sephora so vividly, my mum was so annoyed because we found out it opened until 12.30PM - three and a half hours worth of beauty browsing 😂 xx

Omg I love this post! Everything is so true! I always go into boots for a meal deal and some how find myself spending £100 on make up! Number 11 made me laugh... I was in Asda the other day and couldn't believe that there was a pizza which cost £4 i was like I'm not paying that and my mum was like "yet it's okay to spend £50 on a face mask?" Well of course it is mum! haha! Fab post lovely! :) xxxx

This was a fun read! Number 11 made me laugh! I am not as obsessed with beauty products as you are (I know there must be something wrong with me). But I can see why people are obsessed with it! I do occasionally fall for the beautiful packaging all these makeup brands come up with.

OMG I can relate! Especially with the highlighters. Why do I keep buying more. What made me giggle was spending £4.50 on cheese! So funny!

This may be one of the most relatable posts I've ever read! I hate the "why do you wear so much makeup" question - people just don't understand!!!

Omg girl I loved how you wrote this post out it really made me laugh and read it with so much of your personality and humour! Certain aspects I can relate to but this made me realise I really am not. Beauty addict as I've restricted myself so much form buying loads of new make up as I want to save money for holidays and stuff :) Lovveedd this post so much though!
