You look totally cute & down-to-earth! Happy you enjoyed your make-up lesson! <BR/><BR/>BTW, hint, I save the lipliner and lipstick application for the car (on the days I wear it) - otherwise, I forget I have it on and leave a big smooch on DH's cheek!Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00373349177873839594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7706056316876225881.post-71076916063651676172009-02-16T08:36:00.000-08:002009-02-16T08:36:00.000-08:00I've been shocked that my hubby has neglected to t...I've been shocked that my hubby has neglected to tell me things like, "You forgot mascara on one of your eyes." Or that I forgot makeup altogether. Men! It is better than them picking up on every mistake or oops.<BR/><BR/>I am just like you. I went for my first make up lesson at 35 in December. The lady taught me how to put on eye shadow in a a step by step way. It has been great. I also got a lip liner and gloss. I forgot the gloss once so i filled the whole thing with liner and then used chap stick for some moistness. What do I know!? LOL.<BR/><BR/>Your post is so funny!Josée Martenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12774124942554313863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7706056316876225881.post-74517067092719232332009-02-14T15:06:00.000-08:002009-02-14T15:06:00.000-08:00What's with the BS?! I've SEEN your pictures. You ...What's with the BS?! I've SEEN your pictures. You are ridiculously pretty - no frumpy anything!!! (never mind that you're also about 20 years too young for it)<BR/><BR/>As for not being a trophy wife, that's ONLY a good thing. I've met trophy wives - empty shells who visit the gym 2 hours a day, consume no more than 500 calories/day and stand looking pretty - wherever they are. Ask them a question about the economy, the housing crisis, genocide in Darfur, Kim Jong-il and they cock their heads sideways like a puzzled dog. That's no compliment.<BR/><BR/>You're a smart, cool, funky, current and super pretty chick.<BR/><BR/>So there!Skyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18288560043939554132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7706056316876225881.post-66713447728450139732009-02-14T15:05:00.000-08:002009-02-14T15:05:00.000-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Skyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18288560043939554132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7706056316876225881.post-33004785284366635672009-02-14T07:43:00.000-08:002009-02-14T07:43:00.000-08:00That's hilarious, thanks for sharing a good laugh....That's hilarious, thanks for sharing a good laugh.

I was heading to the airport & finishing my make-up in the car in the back seat. I didn't have a mirror. Put on what I thought was lip-liner with lipstick. (I remembered the lipstick :) ) Turned out it wasn't lip liner. It was my black eyeliner!! My sisters didn't say anything to me until I was already walking around the airport!! -Rachael V.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7706056316876225881.post-73664560783912130852009-02-13T19:04:00.000-08:002009-02-13T19:04:00.000-08:00First of all, YOU'RE NOT FRUMPY!

The 2 times I've gone to a makeup counter in my life I have had to stifle a look of total horror when they handed me the mirror. What is it about those ladies that make them do everyone's makeup like a who-ar? Sounds like you got a good one though. And yeah, from your pic, you definitely don't seem to be in the frumpy department.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7706056316876225881.post-71126581149473239802009-02-13T09:32:00.000-08:002009-02-13T09:32:00.000-08:00Oh, this is just too cute.....and totally sounds l...Oh, this is just too cute.....and totally sounds like something I would do (and maybe have done). LOL.<BR/><BR/>Hmmmm, from your posted pic "frumpy" is not a word I would use to describe you. Could it be they meant something more along the lines of not overly done up with "fake" everything? I over-analyze everything too, but really you do look great in your pic!<BR/><BR/>I went on a girls night out a couple years ago and we somehow ended up at the MAC store. In all my non-girlyness I had never heard of it before. Yes, I live under a rock. Finally, a couple months after IVF#2 failed I made my way back to MAC alone to get lots of help. They make it look so easy, but then I try it at home and end up looking like a clown or a hooker. I really like "natural".

I've done that makeup counter thing b/c I often feel frumpy too (right now I blame it on years of fertility treatments and minor depression, but I'm really not sure). And, I've tried lipliner but I always obsess that I will look like one of those women who puts on really dark liner and some super-light lipstick color and try to look like I'm from the 'hood. So, I always bite it off before I get anywhere. So, I gave up the lipliner. However, I have been trying to make more of an effort lately too. <BR/><BR/>By the way, from the pic of you online -not frumpy! I agree with coolcapmom - they probably just meant you didn't look fake and have big hair - HUGE compliment!Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05323373273366929886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7706056316876225881.post-10864632675327549052009-02-13T05:14:00.000-08:002009-02-13T05:14:00.000-08:00Er...meant too...and was just explaining the conce...Er...meant too...and was just explaining the concept of two/too/to to Sam.
