Frenemies, Friends...Makeup Haters? - Page 2

I have people in my life like this all of the time. Sadly it really does seem TO ME that AA women are more judgemental, It seems like some of us talk just to hear ourselves speak.

i found it a little unnerving that i went to the mall this past weekend with a coworker who shares the same love of makeup as i do, and we had an awesome time going to MAC and Sephora, finding colors for each other and what not, and then when we met up with my best friend who is mutually known to my coworker, said bestie proceeded to turn her nose up when she 1)saw the black MAC bags and 2) saw our friend's receipt from MAC and saw how much she spent. and i made a comment that she wouldn't be looking in my bag to check my receipt either and she just grunted. that's exactly why i didn't hit you up to see if you wanted to go to the mall with me because i knew you'd be like this and i'm not trying to hear that...

i don't get the big deal. i don't get mad at her spending money on the things she likes to buy...what just because i'm buying something she'll never use its a problem? IT'S MY MONEY!!

I try to ignore those women. I could be nasty and say "Just as how I respect your right to be a plain Jane, I would hope that you can respect my right to put whatever I want on my face"

But I don't. Not yet, anyway.

Sorry, i realize this is a very late response. 

Hormonal acne tends to happen in certain areas, like, what i call the beard area. It also tends to be much deeper in the tissue, and a lot larger. So, cystic Acne.... Most people will not have what looks like cystic acne continously if there is nothing off hormonally. 

If you have regular sized looking breakouts, and one or two cystic or deep breakouts, i wouldnt be worried, but if you have more cystic than not, might be hormonal.

Does your bestie wear or like makeup at all?  Maybe she's jealous (?)  I don't mean that in a mean way, but maybe she wants in on the fun but doesn't know where to begin.

i've seen her buy some shadows and some pigmented lipglosses, so i know she's trying, but she is very much a no-makeup kinda girl (i dunno, i don't think she needs it, but then again she'd say the same thing about me). i think it has a lot to do with just how much i am spending on it, so i can very minimally understand where she gets mad, i just wish she wasn't as vocal about it as she is. she'd better get with it because we're probably gonna be housemates soon, and her mom sells mary kay so makeup is all around her!
