My daughter just brought it to my attention earlier but she says that I tend to shop for makeup when I'm under extreme stress or just plain sad. After much thought I have to agree with her.
Is there anyone who shops when feeling sad/stressed?

And does it soothe you at all or makes you just feel even worse?

Yes, if I get in a fight with my boyfriend or I am feeling unattractive I shop for new makeup or clothes.

Oh man, I shop when I'm stressed or upset. It makes me feel so much better that I have something new to play with and experiment with, it almost serves as a distraction from everything that's stressing me out.

I'm definitely more likely to buy makeup when I'm feeling stressed or sad. There's something about a new makeup item that inspires me play an have fun, I find it helps break me out of my mood.

I buy makeup and clothing when I need a new look. When I get tired of looking like me.

This is a question I would not like to admit to, but I I will. I find myself wanting and buying so much more makeup when feeling stressed/ worried/ sad. It's like a temporary relief feeling that I get.

I find myself makeup shopping if I'm feeling unattractive or fighting with my bf.
Some occasions I'll buy something on impulse because someone on this website recommended it or it looked amazing on someone else. I have an addiction. -__-

My love of color fuels my makeup purchases..
but I think most ppl do shop when they are depressed or upset. or even bored.
I will say I window shop when stressed to take my mind off things.. but I don't have to purchase to feel better..
lol @ Traci... I definitely get annoyed more about not getting things I Want. but its actually pretty motivating to work hard so I can do what I want in the future..

Sometimes if work is stressful I want to get out of the store for my lunch ch so I'll walk down to kmart or bath and body. I love when I get great coupons and then I can't wait to use them.

Payday is what fuels my need to buy makeup! Haha! Boredom is really where it comes from. Actually, today I made a trip to the MAC counter because I wanted new foundation. I wasn't thrilled with my current foundation and how yellow it seemed to make my face. I also had never purchased MAC foundation and wanted to be color matched. I "accidentally" walked out with foundation ( which was the point of the trip!), CC cream (it made my rosacea redness totally go away!), and a brow pencil (because my brows looked FAB after the girl was done playing!). You can say I have makeup ADD!

BL fuels my need to buy makeup

Hahaha! What Sam just said! Although there's a strong component of what Shelley said. Unfortunately, I'm rarely in the $ situation to buoy my mood by shopping these days. It's taken me awhile to learn not to make it worse and instead enjoy others joy in their hauls. Living vicariously I guess. lol.

When I have upcoming functions, I tend to go on the move for new makeup. They don't have to be important functions, just general; "Hmm, this thing is coming up and I don't have this thing for the thing."
Also whenever I see a Sephora, because my country doesn't have a Sephora so when I see one I just pounce like a tiger! Hahaha.
I try not to buy makeup when I'm depressed or stressed because afterwards I tend to have buyer's remorse and that just makes me feel worse.
