A rainbow of shadow shades--for $29.95.

Confession is good for the soul….

My name is Hillary and I’m a makeup junkie. I remember buying my first eye shadow (purple, powder, Aziza, age 12) and coveting it like some forbidden fruit. (It should have been forbidden—purple’s not a good color on me.) Then there was Miss. Freedman’s 7-th grade English class, where I was busted for hauling my stash to class and trading cosmetics with a fellow addict while Miss. Freedman was discussing To Kill a Mockingbird. (Got an A+ in the class; but lost out on “behavior” points.)

The product that started the problem.

It’s 30+ years later, and I haven’t been able to kick the habit, as my husband will attest when he caught a glimpse of my latest storage container in the bathroom the other day. (I believe the exact line was, “Got enough makeup?”). But I digress….If you love color and choices, yet despise paying up to $50 for a single eye shadow compact, then bh cosmetics (www.bhcosmetics.com) will blow your makeup mind. This online source specializes in palettes of 120 different shades of shadow for the obscenely low price of $29.95. Choose from a number of color collections–bright, matte, shimmer, tropical, neutral (did you know there are at least a dozen different shades of cream?)—as well as equally well-stocked trays of lip color. For a gal like me, there just aren’t enough words.

My much-ridiculed makeup case; available at www.makeupcreations.com.

I'm not "neutral" about these shadows.

I realize I’m probably feeding the disease. But what’s a makeup junkie to do?
