Updated Makeup Collection & Storage [11.25.09]

[nicolehale523]

aww i miss jane! Jane and covergirl were the first makeup i used, i wish i could find it somewhere.

[Chreesay]

@nicolehale523 - Jane is pretty much out of business as far as I know. The last I bought of Jane was clearance when Walgreens stopped selling them. I've found it in flea markets too though.

[nicolehale523]

finally a collection i can relate to! i have lots of drugstore makeup, and the only highend stuff i have is 2 lipticks, one was a gift and one i got on clearence. more people need to post videos like this and not about how much mac they have!

[Chreesay]

@nicolehale523 - Yes! I never buy high-end stuff. I can't convince myself that an eyeshadow is worth over $10. lol. Hell, I can hardly convince myself it's worth under $10.

[makeupbyme73]

where do you find your jane products?

[Chreesay]

@makeupbyme73 - I got mine in a few places. Jane pretty much went out of business, at least in my area, so I got a few on clearance at Walgreens and others at a flea market.

[2MolinaLuvers4]

I want ur collection

[jamiemonroe30]

Sorry i got so caught up into my comment i forgot to say nice collection it is nice to see someone with out all MAC!!!!

[Chreesay]

@jamiemonroe30 - No need to apologize at all! Thank you very much for the comment! =D

[jamiemonroe30]

WOW NO MAC THAT IS AWESOME!!! It is really really HARD to find Makeup collections with all the Makeup NOT being MAC!!! I do not care what anyone says Drugstore makeup is just as good and it can be Expensive!! Just b/c it is drugstore does not mean it is cheap!! I have so much Drugstore and i love it!! People who just buy MAC are not paying for the makeup they are just paying for the brand and to me that is a makeup SNOB!! If you really love makeup then you like drugstore too not just MAC

[Chreesay]

@jamiemonroe30 - XD I love the passion in this comment. lol. And yes, I do have MAC, I just have very few MAC items and the ones I do have were gifts from friends. To be honest, I'm really not impressed. lolol. Most of my collection to date is actually ELF, Wet N Wild, Maybelline, etc. I much prefer drugstore or cheap makeup!

[lovepeaceandbeauty01]

@jamiemonroe30

you are sooo right sister :) !

[1Manilee]

you don't have MAC... YOU ARE AWESOME!

[Chreesay]

@1Manilee - Well, I have a couple of MAC items, but they were gifts from my friend for my birthday and Christmas. I would never spend the money on MAC because I've never been impressed enough to want to spend $10+ on something I can get for a fraction of the price. And thank you. ^.^

[DanyMakeupday]

mi piace complimenti vorrei una cassettiera come la tua dove si acquista?ciao

[Chreesay]

@DanyMakeupday - Wal-Mart. =]

[spaaddict13]

i like your nail polish in this video what brand is it by?

[Chreesay]

@spaaddict13 - Thank you! =] I think it was Sally Hansen Hard-As-Nails 'Emerald City' with a neon-green glitter on top.

[ashleykat3]

where u get those black and white containers?

[Chreesay]

@ashleykat3 - The black ones you can get at the dollar store, Walmart, Target, anywhere pretty much. The white ones holding my nail polish, I made them myself.

[hannahkay11]

i really like your collection. its mostly drugstore which is mostly what i collect. :)

[Chreesay]

@hannahkay11 - Thanks! I much prefer drug store brands... I never saw the purpose in spending extra cash when you can find a lot of stuff that is just as good for a lot less!

[GottaLoveMe962]

@Chreesay same!!

[Diiful]

This is simply too much liners and shadows

[Chreesay]

@Diiful - Well it's a good thing it's not your collection then, huh?

[Diiful]

@Chreesay well Yeah!!! and plz note I wasnt saying that you SHOULDNT have this much, ur free to do watever I was just saying its too much

[successfull88]

all i can think about through the video is your eyelashes ...thats so horrible..

[Chreesay]

@successfull88 - lol. That's why I hold on to them.

[GottaLoveMe962]

@successfull88 ikr i was like WHAT?!

[JUJUpopzz]

I just curled my lashes after i put on my mascara a few days ago. I will never do it again. O:

[Chreesay]

@JUJUpopzz - Yes, please learn from my mistake! lol.

[3069shannon]

Where did you get the Kat Von D palette?

[Chreesay]

@3069shannon - It was a gift from my friend and she bought it at Sephora.

[madiheartsmakeup16]

whyyyyyy do you need BLACK lipstick?!?!?!?!?!

[Chreesay]

@madiheartsmakeup16 - I need black lipstick because I like it. I used to wear it a lot simply because it got a reaction out of people just like yours. I never understood why other people cared so much.

[flossybutt25]

@Chreesay Plus it's good for halloween :)).

[Chreesay]

@flossybutt25 - Yes!! Who's to say that I didn't dress up and use it for Halloween! =P Actually, I have!

[laurelin77]

@madiheartsmakeup16 Aside from looking totally rad by itself, you can mix black lipstick with others for a different look or to create dimension. Color theory :)

[Chreesay]

@laurelin77 - I've used it for that too! I'm so glad there are people out there who aren't so quick to judge. =]

[GooGoowa]

loved ur collection and loved how sweet and fun u seemed :D subbed :)

[Chreesay]

@GooGoowa - Thank you!!!

[eastlandcougar14]

i want as much makeup as u cuz then i would soooo many options to do my make up

[Chreesay]

@eastlandcougar14 - It takes time to build up a collection, but it's easy if you keep an eye out for good deals. =]

[Vempps]

i love your collection. It's nice that you don't have lots of mac products (=

[Chreesay]

@Vempps - Thank you!! To this day, I still only own those two Holiday palettes. lol.

[kadylynn09]

I just stumbled upon this video, but it was filmed and uploaded on my birthday!

[MACforever121]

@kadylynn09 OMG when I saw that comment I went to the date to see and thats my birthday too!! LOL I don't know why Im so excited but... yeah :P

[iheartmac2010]

love your collection. i'm glad it's a mix of stuff. what color is your nail polish color it's so pretty.

[Chreesay]

@iheartmac2010 0 Thanks!! I believe it's Sally Hansen Hard-As-Nails 'Emerald City' with a neon-green glitter from Hot Topic on top.

[NicoleMarieBeerstow]

Its so nice to see someone on youtube who isn't some crazy mac junkee and can actually wear the makeup of an average person without going all psycho :)

[Chreesay]

@NicoleMarieBeerstow - lol, thank you very much! I never saw the point in buying ridiculously expensive things when you can get things that are just as good for cheaper.

[Blueskies49441]

Omg that clown is scaryyy hahaha how can you sit and do a your makeup with that starring at you lol? I would run away ad take my makeup with me hahahah

[Chreesay]

@Blueskies49441 - lol! It's the Joker from Batman! And I think it's because I like creepy things. XD

[Blueskies49441]

@Chreesay Oh, hahah, i am very afraid of clowns!

[Chreesay]

@Blueskies49441 - I hate clowns too. XD I just really loved him in that movie and so my bf gave me that poster. lol. I put it in the only open space I had, which happened to be above my makeup. lol.

[NeceNontoxic]

what are you wearing on yyour nails?!

i need it!

lol. :]

[Chreesay]

@NeceNontoxic - Oh gosh, I'm re-watching the video and I'm trying to figure it out but I'm not really sure. lol. This was so long ago. I believe it's Sally Hansen Hard-As-Nails in Emerald City with a neon-green glitter from Hot Topic on top.

[rimmellondon27]

hey girlie i liked it and you should focus on how much your mind has changed not how much stuff u have just saying to all u girls out there watch some alex jones

[makeupprincess568]

uhm...people..be nice!she talks loud enough and plus,my speakers don't work and i am just fine!so if i can handle it..you can!lol :) i gocha back girl,lollol :D

[Chreesay]

lol, thank you! =]

[rimmellondon27]

i was being nice just more motherly than i needed to be im just worried for the sake of our future it will consist of nothing but stuff and not values or humanity@makeupprincess568

[Chreesay]

@rimmellondon27 - That 'be nice' comment was not towards you, it was towards someone who rudely cussed at me because I was not speaking loud enough for their liking.

I don't focus on how much stuff I have, I made this video because I love makeup. I use these kinds of videos for myself, not to show off or feel better than anyone. If you didn't judge me based on a video, you would know that I have very high personal values and morals. Money and possessions mean nothing.

[Dancerbabe303107]

I don't have expensive brands either so it's no biggie but I love La colors check out my channel make up collection to be posted today!

[Chreesay]

Awesome! I definitely will!

[floofymax1211]

talk fucking louder

[Chreesay]

Wow, you're polite. This was my first live video, so excuse me for not knowing my camera wasn't picking up my voice very well. If it was that much of a problem, why bother watching?

[MakeupwithGabby]

do you know any bargain makeup brush cleansers? besides making your own

[Chreesay]

I wish I could help you with that but I really don't know.

[makeupcouture09]

@MakeupwithGabby elf makes a pertty good one i hear :D

& sephora has one for only $6

[pinkpeony06]

@MakeupwithGabby

I know your question is 1 month old but I thought I would recomend MIchellePhan's video called "Squeaky Clean Brushes!" I believe she uses antibacterial dishsoap or something like that.

[irishchangling]

Yay for clearance prices! I get most of my makeup from Dollar Tree too! I love it. And my weak spot is clearance stuff at Walgreens and stuff...

[Chreesay]

Clearance prices make me weak in the knees. lol.

[HelloKittyz100]

where can u get L.A colors at plz tell me thanx  =)

[Chreesay]

Dollar Tree, Dollar General, 5 Below... Or you can order it online on CherryCulture. =]

[mutexmirror]

Where did you get your Ooh La La palette?

[Chreesay]

I bought one for myself a long time ago at Rite Aid for $6.99 but I ended up giving it to my mother. I started to miss it and then bought another for myself when I found it at 5 Below for $5. It's not super pigmented, but it's not absolutely terrible if you use the right bases.

[KristenAnneZ09]

i like your makeup collection...but im kinda creeped out that you kept your old eye lashes.

[Chreesay]

lol, thanks. It's okay to be creeped out, lol, I'm a weirdo.

[MyLiveAsATEeNaGeR]

i hate you ! XD

great collexion

[Chreesay]

lol, why would you hate me?  And thank you!

[WendyOMGWar]

Where'd you get the China Glaze?

[Chreesay]

I bought it at DrugFair, but that was when they were closing their stores and everything was discounted.

[lvl08]

great collection! I was just wondering, where did you buy the empty palette for your depoted LA girl eyeshadows?

[Chreesay]

Walmart. They have them in the craft/beads section. I think it was about $6-$7.

[lvl08]

ooh! Thank you so much =)

[Chreesay]

You're welcome. =]

[cintherchic2007]

u were def a big help i know who to ask thx

[cintherchic2007]

thanx much i picked some up ur great help plz sub to me th much love

[Chreesay]

Glad to help. =]

[cintherchic2007]

where did you get all you dividers and such cuz im trying to organize my stuff its a mess!

[Chreesay]

The black and white baskets I got from different dollar stores. You can usually find those at any dollar store or even target or walmart for 3 for $1. My nail polish dividers I made myself by cutting up some old boxes from chocolates and taping them together with different size sections..

[AllieCat579]

in your 1st drawer you said " ones from the dollar tree " wat do you mean...like are they worth buying...can you do a reveiw

[Chreesay]

I didn't get them from Dollar Tree, it was a small dollar store that I used to go to, but the store cut down a lot of what they sell. It's a brand called Color Plus and some the colors are decently pigmented for a dollar, but I'm not sure I'd buy more if I found them again.

[AllieCat579]

Y did you save your ripped out eyelashes????? l0l thats kinda wierd!!! but watever ! you do wat u wont!!!!! love the storage!!!

[Chreesay]

lol. I have them there because I think it was hilarious that it happened, plus it reminds me to never again curl my lashes AFTER putting on mascara. lol.

[simplydri09]

I love this vid.....

I have a few nail polishes from Hot Topic...

I find that they are reallllllyyyyyy watery..lol...

[Chreesay]

Thanks!

I've only got three and I bought them recently, so I haven't even really gotten to try them out. Plus I got them in the clearance section for 97 cents each, so it's not much of a loss to me if they suck. lol.

[Onthewing101]

cool!!!

[prschdavis]

i luv ur collection, how did you depot the la colors loose shimmer eyshadows?

[Chreesay]

Thanks! There are a bunch of videos on here that will show it better than I could explain it. All you have to do it pop out the little plastic bottom piece though, it's pretty easy.

[tiaraacrawford]

you have a very nice collection i enjoyed this video

[Chreesay]

Thank you!

[Samspark72]

Gr8 collection - how come u don't use foundation or bronzer etc...

[Chreesay]

Thanks!! I was just never interested in it, honestly. I just like playing with bright colors on my eyes.

[deeExplainsItAll]

I really liked this! Everything's so organized... I should really start organizing my products. I have the drawers but I kinda just throw things in :/

I have a couple of products that just didn't work for me... I could send them out to you if you'd like! Just let me know. Also, join Makeupalley if you haven't and start swapping... it's fun :)

[Chreesay]

Thanks! My OCD makes me keep it organized. XD

If there's anything you just really don't want I'd be willing to give it some love. I don't know what I could send in return though. haha. And I should really consider joining MakeupAlley!
