Hi guys!
I seem to be on a roll with these list-type posts.
2. I just can't seem to master the art.
On a fairly good day, the brows come out great, eyeliner so sharp and straight, eye shadow well blended, you know. But on those other days, eek.
I just be here wondering why my eyeliner be looking like horns. Or why oh why do my eyes look like I've gotten a serious beating? On top eyeshadow (because of eyeshadow). Sigh. *cleans makeup* *embraces the bare-faced look*
Exhibit A:
3. Takes way too much time.
So here's a story: I was watching Berry Dakara's vlog about a month ago and she and her sister were doing a 5 minute makeup challenge. I was all "I can totally do this!" "It wouldn't even take me this long!" And then my friend said let's do it. I'm like yes!
I failed. Woefully! But it's alright because I at least did better than Berry and her sister.
Exhibit A:
... Did I miss anything? Let me know in the comments!
But really, who else misses the eyeliner and lipstick days?

5. And when the art isn't mastered to a degree

When it comes to makeup, it's better to never fail than actually try and end up failing.
Enough said.
Makeup is fun though! And it's interesting to see how makeup can really transform an outfit because in all honesty, I use makeup as an accessory.
What's your favourite makeup item?

To be honest, I had to idea what to blog about until about 11am this morning. I was at a fashion campaign shoot and it came to me- makeup is sooo annoying. Here's why:
1. Stains. Every. Where.
It really pisses me off.
You're about to leave your house after getting all dressed, looking all fly and stuff when you look down and oops.
Lipstick from your lips to your face to your hands somehow got to your skirt and you're now questioning the whole point of even stepping out of the house.
Still don't get it?

4. Quality is too expensive.
I love the Zaron matte powder. It's seriously bae. But 4,500naira?!? That's the price of a pair of shoes or clothing item. And there's so much to invest in:
- Brow pencil
-Brow filler
-Brow gel
-Concealer
-Face primer
-Foundation
-Powder
-Eyeshadow
-Eyeliner
-Mascara
-Lip pencils in different shades
-Lipstick
-Lipgloss
