Reasons I Wear Makeup

If you ask any of my friends, makeup and I have never been the dearest of companions. I remember the days I would wear liquid eyeliner (à la Avril Lavigne) without mascara. What was I thinking? Small pea eyes come to mind. And then there was the time that I did my eye makeup like the White Witch from Narnia. That, guys, is a whole other story.


So why do I wear makeup now? Well, obviously I like it but sometimes - most of the time - its needed, too.

Gives me life.
As in less Wednesday Adamms/The Grudge, more 8 hours sleep kinda girl.

Kate Winslet.
Rose's red lipstick in Titanic was the bomb. It never smudged, not even when she went to that wild Irish party in third class.

Chill time.
Because who doesn't sing to Taylor Swift whilst getting ready in the mirror?

It's a riot.
Especially when it goes terribly wrong. Like that one time you tried lip liner and you resembled Jackie Stallone.

The challenge.
There's nothing quite like getting symmetrical eyebrows, or avoiding the third mascara wand eye stab of the morning.

Lipstick.
Everybody should own one red lipstick. The End.
