Lately I've been really lazy with the make-up, and I found myself not even wearing mascara for like .. a few days last week. It's new to me, cause the last few years I've pretty much forbidden myself to go out without wearing at least mascara. But now I don't really care anymore. To school I still wear just mascara, and if I go out shopping or something, cause I always think of Coco Chanel's quote: “I don't understand how a woman can leave the house without fixing herself up a little - if only out of politeness. And then, you never know, maybe that's the day she has a date with destiny. And it's best to be as pretty as possible for destiny.”
In spite of that, no make-up doesn't mean that you haven't bothered to fix yourself up. If you wear some nice clothes, do something with your hair .. anything at all pretty much. Still, I could never dream of being a person who never wears make-up. It makes you stand out a little bit more .. and makes a statement. It allows you to accentuate the pretty features of your face, like the eyes, the lips, the bone structure. At the same time it's important to make it look natural - which some girls forget, or haven't learned yet. But we're all different, I guess.
Having said all of this, I know I'm no expert myself - which is why I don't spend a lot of my time on it. I'm actually a bit afraid of wearing foundation, cause it blocks all the pores and doesn't let the skin breathe at all. Which results in bad skin .. which makes you wear even more make-up to hide it .. And then you're in an evil circle. But actually, I found a new Clinique foundation which claims to look very natural, and lets the skin breathe .. Maybe I should try it ..
I was just sitting thinking .. I think it's SO cool that I've finally moved down into my own "flat" .. I never have to go upstairs anymore, apart from when I have to eat. My friends are a bit jealous too .. They've already started to plan parties here :p
Right now I'm just sitting making a list for my dad .. He is in China right about now I think .. So when he calls at some stage, I've got a list of things he has to get. The first thing I've written is Burberry The Beat perfume. I guess those things are pretty cheap in China. I'm also thinking of which dvd's he should get, since they only cost around 7-8 kroner .. Burned dvd's of course, but who cares.
Better get back to the list ..
TTYN!! (Yes, I've watched too much Paris Hilton's My New BFF) ..
