There's a customer who comes in regularly. She's not very polite, but that's not the worst thing about her. She seems to be a fan of contouring makeup, but doesn't seem to have grasped the fact that you're meant to blend. Basically, she comes in looking like this: https://dy6g3i6a1660s.cloudfront.net...L4Afg/orig.jpg

Oh yes the makeup abusers. 2 inch eyelashes, an entire drugstores worth of makeup on one face, nails 3 inches long or longer, and lots of attitude. Of course anybody who objects to their rudeness is just " jealous they don't look as good as me." Though IMHO I think being rude is worse than bad makeup. You can come in looking like you got run over by a truck, tire tracks and all, and I don't care as long as you're polite to me.Last edited by WishfulSpirit; 10-04-2016, 07:32 PM."I try to be curious about everything, even things that don't interest me." -Alex Trebek

I have an acquaintance who seems to put on foundation that's slightly the wrong color... I don't know her well enough to say anything about it. I have come to the conclusion the the lighting in her house must be tinted, or off somehow, since she's otherwise fashionable and trendy. So it's a bit jarring to see the thick coat of foundation that's two shades too light.
This area seems to be fairly laid back, respecting make-up. I'm now 30 (god help me), and I really don't know how to put it on. Maybe some mascara? Honestly, people here wear so little, (or what they wear is very "natural" looking) that when I see someone with tv-show style makeup it looks pretty ridiculous. This is hippie land, though, not L.A.Replace anger management with stupidity management.

A friend of mine moved to San Diego. She was visiting back in my area a couple of years later, and her make-up looked like clown paint. It was very sad to see, but none of us said anything about it to her.“There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged.
One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world.
The other, of course, involves orcs." -- John Rogers

I used to wear eye makeup (and will again one day; I'm getting some minor surgery done on my eyelids early next year ... it's not entirely cosmetic; they are starting to cut off some of my peripheral vision!) I also used to wear some blush/rouge/whateveryoucallit. I've always owned lipsticks but hated wearing it; it always felt as if I'd stuck my lips into a vat of Crisco.
I'll be going into a fairly expensive makeup store next week to check out nail polish for my niece for Christmas. Waiting with anticipation to see the reaction of my coworkers at the store, if I bump into any of them there, or bring the little bag into "my" store later on ...Customer service: More efficient than a Dementor's kiss

You do have to match your foundation to your skin tone. I have to wear the lightest one they make because I'm Casper the Ghost pale. I've never worn a darker one because I don't want to be bothered with all the blending, but a decent one that matches my skin tone evens it out.When you start at zero, everything's progress.

Only time I have worn full on warpaint is when it was arranged for the whole wedding party, for my senior prom and 2 modeling session I did for a friend. At most I wear lipstick, mascara, occasionally when I am feeling frisky I will add eyeliner. I also will wear Imperial Roman makeup when I am portraying the Roman Alexandrian woman for historical reenactments.EVE Online: 99% of the time you sit around waiting for something to happen, but that 1% of action is what hooks people like crack, you don't get interviewed by the BBC for a WoW raid.

My answer to a few people I know who are like this is Nope, nobody is jealous of you, you are just jealous of me because I look good without makeup.
Not that I'm actually that good looking, but I'm an old hippy, and I don't like makeup, so I have never felt the need for it. But my sister and my cousin used to get on my last nerve with their attitude.
