Question of the day.

Hi guys. 🙂

Here’s my question for you for today, a girly one:

Who taught you to apply makeup?

My answer:

I can’t really apply makeup, and I can’t say I care. I hardly ever wear makeup anyway, and I don’t think it would change a lot if I knew how to do it. Zofijka tried to teach me, she’s only 12 but has been an expert in such things since many years, but that didn’t really work out. When I was younger, maybe 15 or so, figuring out such things, I asked my Mum to teach me how to do it, not as much because I wanted, but more because I considered it sort of necessary, it felt to me like all women do this so I probably should too, that it would be kind of awkward if I wouldn’t. But since my Mum knew I’m not normally into that sort of things she asked me “Do you seriously want it?” and I said no, but I guess I should know, she was like: “No, why?”, and, yeah, I actually realised I don’t need it at all. If I do want/need some makeup, I can ask Zofijka, her style is quite different but she likes to be treated as an expert, or I can ask Mum, or go to a makeup artist. I’m allergic to loads of makeup products anyway and so I look quite spectacularly awful after applying them, and my skin feels even worse than it looks. 😀

How was it with you? 🙂

  1. I applied it with a steam roller, sealed it with polyeurathane, and chiseled it off. Then I went to a make up store and they taught me how to do it ‘properly’, which to me meant the ‘so natural you can’t tell you’re wearing make up’ so I just took from them what worked for me and do my own thing.
    If it’s 95 degrees out, ugly and plain it is, lol, since I am out of polyeuruthane sealant. 😉

  2. I too thought I should master makeup because I was “supposed to.” But no one ever managed to teach me in a way that stuck. I finally accepted that I’m helpless with all makeup items. Many tried to teach me; many failed.
