A lesson in hubris:
1. Just because a lovely English woman on the internet gives a makeup tutorial does not mean that you will be able to recreate the same look on your own.
2. She has over 100+ tutorials up on youtube, she has more experience with things like liquid eyeliner.
3. Even if you spent (too much) money on fun makeup colors today. Yes, we've had the conversation about how paying more for quality eyeshadow is a good idea. Maybe you should have tried the colors on?
4. Even though it's a pretty color in the container does not mean it will look good on your face. Note how it resembles a healing bruise.
5. Really if it's more than 4 steps you should just abandon all hope.
6. Remember how you were a sucky MaryKay consultant all those years ago?
7. No, you will never find that favorite lip gloss.
8. Yes, I see you bought a similar color, oh it sucks and makes you look like a mannequin. Yeah.
9. Shouldn't we have covered this phase in junior high?
10. Here are some responses you can expect from your "in-house makeup consultant" (ie D.)
a. In response to the question "do I look like I got punched in the face?" A: "a little"
b. Various other reasons quickly cited for an affirmative response to question a:
1. "you're standing with the light behind you"
2. "it's funny that you're wearing makeup at all"
3. "it's funny that you're wearing makeup with curling clothes"
c. Based on the response to question a it was good you omitted the question about looking like a pirate whore
d. What if I asked about looking like a sexy pirate whore?
e. Um no, you will probably get something along the lines of abused pirate whore.
d. Just because the name of the makeup look includes the word "sexy" it does not mean that *your* application of the makeup will make you look sexy (remember that you're still wearing curling clothes)
e. If I took off the clothes would that help?
f. No, then you would smear the make up.
g. In response to the question "could I wear this outside?" A: "it's an evening look, right?"
h. Yes, probably only on a very, very dark evening.
i. It's your own fault for asking another question.
