Pretty Things

I don't know about you but I am an absolute sucker for packaging when it comes to makeup. I would much rather spend my money on high end products because they are just so pretty.There is definitely the argument that there are some good dupes on the market right now, but I still can't help being attracted to this exclusivity of the high end products.  The sleek and simple packaging is just something that I am willing to pay more for. To be honest even when I do go to high street shops I will normally walk out empty handed as I would much prefer to spend money on a more luxurious product. Call me shallow but it makes me happy. I love seeing products on my dressing table that I know I have saved for and spent time thinking about before I actually make the purchase (80 percent of the time... sometimes I'm just feeling spendy).  Also as someone who is hoping to forge a career in the world as a makeup artist I feel like I use that as an excuse to spend a bit more.
