I hope you write a blog explain...Hi Marie-Thérèse,<br /><br />I hope you write a blog explaining the purpose of your back up makeup. It would make an interesting read. <br /><br />I have one of the clear pastic shoe boxes filled with unopened makeup. Extra powder, extra eyeshadow, extra blush, etc. Usually, they are products I like very much and bought on sale. Nowadays I don't let myself buy more than 2 of anything, one I use in the here and now and one on deck. But in the past I bought 4 - 5 of the products I loved if they were on sale. I make a real effort to buy less now.<br /><br />I like not having to disturb the makeup I keep in my bathroom for daily use. I keep extra lipstick and gloss in my purse and like packing a different cosmetic bag with makeup (I don't have to remore from the bathroom) for trips. And as a hostess, I usually can offer a guest makeup I haven't used, if they need something. <br /><br />So I'm eager to read about your backup makeup, M-T. Write away.

The sample bags I receive I use to organize my back-up make up (there's another story there), just like you. <br /><br />I, also, love Ziploc bags for travel. You can see what you have at a glance, and when they're dirty, you just throw them away. No muss, no fuss. <br /><br />Cheers, M-TMarie-Thérèsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06834644226980732441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8286641315310259749.post-81122058780469455492017-05-19T11:03:09.968-04:002017-05-19T11:03:09.968-04:00When I was a child, I travelled to Europe with my ...When I was a child, I travelled to Europe with my mother and remember the hassle of having to have coins to use the bathroom. I suppose it was used to keep the bathroom stocked in paper, soap and cleaned. I recall someone telling me that in the 1950s you also had to have coins to get into the stalls in some bathrooms in the US. Glad it's not something we must deal with in the here and now!Debra Turnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04553596042707601518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8286641315310259749.post-34424941822232117972017-05-18T20:02:01.293-04:002017-05-18T20:02:01.293-04:00Dearest Debra,

A hassle as one not always would have coins in that currency. Now with the EURO it is different but still I hate it.<br />Hugs,<br />MarietteMariette VandenMunckhof-Vedderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877699174880945452noreply@blogger.com
