As often as I wear makeup, some days… things just don’t go my way. Today was one of those days. 
I used an old favourite tinted moisturiser for my base and found that it just didn’t work for me anymore. So pink and blotchy. On the eyes, I went too frosty and light. The mascara is also an old fave that just didn’t do it for me today. I looked sick and puffy-eyed. The only thing that came out semi-alright were my brows, and even they could not save the look. I’m not into the lipstick I used either, but I felt that going for a more solid pink-brown might distract from the rest of the face. Not so. I eventually just let that wear off and I wore my eyeglasses in an effort to hide my face. Ick.
Crappy as I felt, I took this photo because I wanted to post it and ask you guys this: What you do when you have a shitty makeup day (and don’t have enough time to take everything off to do it over again)?
I was this close to taking everything off and leaving the house with a bare face (which I do sometimes anyway), but my base had the SPF in it already and I knew I would need that. I’m not sure I made the right decision at all. Haha. I think I looked even more tired with makeup on than I did without it, and that is never a good thing! So please do share your thoughts! I can’t be alone in this.
Wow, you still look lovely! I also hide behind my glasses on bad make-up days :-)
I think you still look really lovely!x
When I’m too late to make sure my cat eye is perfect, I also hide in the safety of my glasses. When there’s no time to change what is already in my face, I just roll with it and hope nobody notices. Hahaha
Glasses are such a life-saver! haha
Yup, glasses. Any problems with lipstick and blush is easy enough to rectify, but glasses save the day for icky eyes.
I erase everything and slap on sunblock when I’m pressed for time :P
I would give up all my good make up days for one of your bad days!!! You still look B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L!!!
Unfortunately, when I have a bad makeup day, I seem to only make it worse. Wonky eyeliner? Make it bigger. Smudged on one eye? Smudge both. Mascara not working? Layer it to death with another. I don’t know why I automatically add shit on my face when things go wrong because it’s never worked for me EVER.
Love your brows! I usually try to add winged eyeliner or a bright lip or some accessories to take attention away. A bad makeup day is when my skin is misbehaving and I can’t get my base right!
