    MoonCat -- I can attest to the likelihood that she thought she looked goooooooood ~_~ I've had relatives who did their eyes that way in the past. They have, fortunately, toned it down since then.

      Just make sure you don't look like Mimi from the Drew Carey Show

        There used to be a woman who worked at a now-defunct supermarket chain here...she used to cover her entire eyelid and the space between the eye and her eyebrow with bright cobalt blue or peacock-green eyeshadow. I mean the heavy-duty kind that looks like you used a paint roller to apply it. That was in addition to eyeliner, mascara and blush. She looked like a clown.
        So she was Mimi from The Drew Carey Show?

        Also, five different types of makeup as follows:

        1. Foundation/concealer.
        2. Eyeshadow.
        3. Lip balm.
        4. Lip gloss/lipstick.
        5. Nail polish.

        Alternately, substitute #3 for eyeliner or lipliner.

        I tend to wear pretty much 2, 3 and 4 at the moment.

          Oh, as a BTW? Consider snoods, if you take the job and need to keep fine hair back.
          Those are gorgeous but unfortunately my hair's not nearly long enough to make them feasible. I'd have to wear them like a hairnet.

          *AAAACK* She looks like she'd need a hammer and chisel to get that eye makeup off!

            It also glowed in the dark. =P

            There was one episode where the building lost power, and the camera flipped to her and all you could see was lips and eyeshadow.

            It's so I can get ideas out of my head, I decided to put it in a blog in case people are bored or are curious as to the (many) things in progress.

              DAMNIT! MadMike beat me to the "pieces of flair" reference! If anyone wants me, I'll be in my cubicle, doing some very important work with my red Swingline stapler.

                That's EXACTLY what she looked like. Except this is years before that show ever aired.
                When you start at zero, everything's progress.

                  I've worn snoods with short hair - though I did have to make them myself. Yes, it was like an ornamental hairnet.
                  Seshat's self-help guide:
                  1. Would you rather be right, or get the result you want?
                  2. If you're consistently getting results you don't want, change what you do.
                  3. Deal with the situation you have now, however it occurred.
                  4. Accept the consequences of your decisions.

                    I'm not sure how they verify this.
                    Maybe they require you to buy a set of makeup, keep it at work and apply it there?
                    (seriously, some of the stuff my former coworkers kept in their lockers...)
