It's Makeup Time!

I am a makeup whore! I love makeup, the smell and texture of it! I love the packaging and the crispness of a new compact! I will also admit, while i have bought and thrown away more makeup than any gal could need in a lifetime, I rarely wear makeup! I love the idea of it, a finished face, the perfect nude lipstick, eyes that pop! In reality, i never look that together! I have good intentions every season to be the lady who leaves her house perfectly made up everyday, even if wearing jeans and a wifebeater, but i'm not her!

I have had relationships with them all, I've gone out With Giorgio Armani, Yves Saint Laurent, Vincent Luongo. Hell, i've even had relationships with the women, Bobbi Brown, Sue DeVitt, Trish McEvoy. I've broken up with all of them!

Today was my day to pick a new mate, and recently I had been seduced by Laura Mercier, I have been trying to avoid meeting up with her, but I lost today, despite my best intentions.

What i've realized is that the minute you walk into a store, you get sucked in. Ever noticed that every makeup artist tells you the following: you have the most perfect shaped lips and eyes, your skin is beautiful, your eyebrows are perfect and your lashes are so long! LIES! They all lie to you! They tell you a foundation looks amazing, but when you point out that every single PORE is showing, they immeadiately wipe it away and say, no that wasn't right for you!

The perfect store would have a makeup artist that walks over to you and honestly tells you, don't use this skin cream, your foundation is a shade too dark, that you really can't pull off smoky eyes!

So for now, i'm believing that Laura Mercier and I will be a perfect couple at least for a few months!
