Recently, I was at the mall.
I thought I'd pop into one of those junky jewellery/accessories stores.
There was lots of jewellery, and there was also a rack with nail polish, and irresistible glittery eyeshadow. Since I needed some red nail polish--you know--for Christmas, I took advantage of the two-for-one deal, and I got me some GLITTER. You know--for New Year's eve.
But who can wait till New Year's to try out their sexay new look?
I slapped some glitzy silver on, and patted myself on the back for my awesome deal-finding skills.
and it looked goooooood
but then it felt baaaaaaad
After several washes, and a whole day later, I STILL had GLITTER stuck to my face!
Glitter is evil.
Whoo! That was boring.
glitter is a beast! looks so dainty, but with amazing stamina. sometimes cheap makeup is just too good to be true. same goes for cheap earrings with rusty posts made of tin foil.
ReplyDeleteyes, I remember you saying about washing one of your girlie's shirts, and there was glitter on everything else for ages.
ReplyDeleteCheap earrings make your ears itchy within about five minutes!
I don't really wear eyeshadow, it always creases after about 5 minutes so I don't bother. And your cautionary tale makes me no more enthusiastic to try it again! Glitterr on your nails is safer, though glitter polishes are a bloody nightmare to get off too! At least they don't sting though.
ReplyDeleteHey, it's fun over here, Karen! xxxx
Thank you Curtise! No wonder I love you so. Yes, glitter nailpolish is a total BITCH to get off. I agree with you about the eyeshadow. The only eyeshadow I've found that seems to last a long time without obvious creasing is Smashbox. But hell, you don't need eyeshadow.
