Make-Up
- August 2nd, 2007 10:56 pm
So, I went to a Mary Kay party tonight which basically resulted in me coming home looking like a truck-stop hooker. I hardly wear any make up. I wear lip-gloss, mascara, eyeshadow, and eyeliner. Most of the time, I’m not even wearing all of those things at the same time. My eyeshadow is basically just sheer. I might as well not even wear it at all. Probably, I don’t look like a clown or a roadwhore right now; however, I feel like one.
I have on foundation, bronzer, blush, several moisturizers, three different eyeshadows, eye liner, mascara, lip liner, and some crazy lipstick with a really shady name like ‘Apricot Sunset’ or something insane like that. This is an insane amount of make-up. I can’t believe people really cake this much stuff on their faces. Mine feels so nasty right now.
Aside from the fact that I rarely wear make-up, I refuse to pay the insane prices for make-up. I’m Mary Kate and Ashley make-up all the way which is sad but true. I bought the lipgloss one day as a joke. Because I have a cousin that swears her kids look like them. And, they don’t….at all. My mom and I make fun of her for it all the time. We’ll point out the least Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen looking people ever…like Adam Sandler..and be like, “OH, THERE’S MARY KATE!” So, then I tried the joke lipgloss…and it was awesome. I seriously use their lipgloss and bronzer. I do have some Mary Kay mascara but it was clearance from a salesperson my mother-in-law knows who was selling all her products or something.
I hope I never in my life start wearing the ridiculous amount of make-up I have on right now. This is insane. It’s borderline Tammy Faye Baker. (Sorry Tammy, R.I.P

i’ve been toning down my amount of makeup lately.
it’s hard for me to do – i don’t like the “natural” look because i look young and ppl actually don’t respect me as much. it’s frustrating.
mary kay makeup breaks me out like no other.

I was gifted with some lovely smelling Mary Kay body scrub and lotion for Christmas. It makes my skin itch.
I have become one of *those* hippies I always swore I’d never be. I never wear any makeup, unless I’m feeling particularly like I want to be super!glam barbie and my best friend is taking me out on a “date.”
So why do I have so much damned makeup in my bathroom? Because I’m a sucker for PRETTY PACKAGES, that’s why. I can stroll through the makeup section at Target for hours. Sephora is bad mojo for me, because, what with the being poor, I almost want to CRY at the PRETTY THINGS I CANNOT BUY BECAUSE THEY ARE SO PRETTY AND EXPENSIVE.
I have like, nine shimmery pink eye shadows. There is no reason for this. I do not wear makeup! I do not wear shimmery pink eye shadow! The packaging! It is evil! It must be stopped!

Well, I used to be one of those freaks who was against wearing any sort of makeup.
That was until I started having to meet new people everyday with the volunteer work — so I put foundation to cover up my acne scars, so that I can at least look human.
