Last Saturday night, I had a difficult time sleeping, for some obscure reason.
I usually get up early on Sunday morning to go to Bible study, but, because of my bad night, I figured I'd be too tired this Sunday.
However, I woke up only five minutes later than usual, and decided to go for it.
As I always do on such occasions, I declared, "I'll just put on minimal makeup ..."
But, when it was time for makeup, I did the following:
Put on my sunscreen - I still need to protect my skin, no matter what.
Put on foundation - If you're going to go around with uneven skin, why bother with *any* makeup?
Swiped on blush - I looked pale, with just foundation.
Stained my lips - I needed color on my lips, to balance my cheeks
Applied eyelid primer - I 'm just going to swipe on a single shade of eyeshadow, but why have that just melt into my creases?
Applied lid shade - Looks okay, but I've got 71 eyeshadows and some killer brushes, so why not add a little depth to the creases?
Applied contour shade - Looks kind of dark, without highlight.
Applied highlight eyeshadow shade - Looks good, but I think I look "unfinished" without eyeliner.
Applied eyeliner to upper lid. But I'm for sure skipping lower lid liner today. It's completely unnecessary.
Used corner curler on upper lashes - The last thing I need this morning is droopy looking lashes.
Used conventional curler to curl entire lash line - It'll look weird if I don't.
Applied lash primer - It'll just take a second, and will make a lot of difference.
Applied mascara - Gotta cover up the white primer!
Used scary metal lash comb - Clumped lashes are demoralizing, and I don't need that this morning.
Applied "top coat" of waterproof mascara - The weather is so humid.
Used scary metal lash comb - See above.
Applied lower lid liner - It's so quick and easy, and I'm doing fine on time, so why not?
Brushed brows and applied clear brow gel - The weather's so humid ...
Applied lip balm - These dry lips were driving me crazy!
Applied lip liner - If I've gone to the trouble of staining my lips, why not lightly line them?
Applied lipstick - Since I've applied all that other stuff, I'd look odd with no lipstick.
Blotted lipstick - Too dark is too dark, even on a bad morning.
Blotted lipstick again - See above.
Applied lipstick - Went overboard on blotting, and what's the point, if you're left colorless?
Blotted lipstick - Too dark again, but now it's perfect, because it HAS to be!
Decided between plum sparkly gloss and silver sparkly gloss(Date Night and She -Zam, respectively) Chose and applied plum.
Figured "Why not both?" and applied a few dabs of silver gloss on top of plum gloss, and rubbed lips together to distribute.
I'm finished, but not exactly "minimal!"
