Weird Dream?????? An Analysis

The Dream
I had a dream that I was ordering makeup brushes online and that the package arrived. I did not know where I was ordering them from (either Amazon or some borderline deep web Milanoo front). I distinctly remember that they were Artis brush dupes. There was no transition between the order and getting my package. I don't remember opening the package. I just remember trying out the brushes only to find out that they were horrible and scratchy. The brushes felt like I was dragging bundles of splinters across my face.

The Context
I had my heart set on a particular set of Artis brush dupes. It was the cheapest, so I'd thought I'd buy it. However, the vendor seemed a bit sketchy. I kept looking at this brush set and watching others try similar brushes. I lost my other brushes and decided I want to upgrade anyway. I was self-loathing and overwhelmed at the time. I ended up splurging on a slightly more expensive set ($23) rather than the $16 set. I get ten (10) brushes with each set.

The Meaning
I took this as a warning not to buy the brushes. Generally, when I dream especially vividly, I take it as a prompt or warning of some sort. Given that the context was fairly obvious, I decided to spend seven extra dollars for my peace of mind. It could be a sign that I will no longer be able to present a polished version of myself and, instead, be forced to show the flaws I've tried so hard to conceal. Alternatively, it represents my dissatisfaction with the world, like anything I try to do will be meaningless.
