let's get dolled up.

let's talk makeup, shall we?

makeup is such an individualized thing.

my observation of makeup and women:

-some women don't dare step foot outside without completely being done-up,

while some women won't step foot in the makeup department. 

-some women load, cake and pile it on,

while other women wear barely any.

-some women swear by their favorite brand and never branch out,

while some women go from one trend/brand/product to the next eagerly.

-some women go for a bold, bright, daring and "out there" look,

while others stick to nude, subtle and "i'm not really wearing makeup" look. 

-some women spend hours practicing that perfect cat eyeliner

while some women don't even know what a liquid liner is.

where do you fall into place?

are you someone who can't imagine life without makeup?

or are you the type to give "el natural" it's definition? 

by the looks of the picture above you might have an assumption

of my obsession or love for makeup.

let's face it, it's true.

however, you may be surprised- because you have slightly been fooled.

yes, i do love makeup- the colors, the trends, the creativity, the product itself...

everything about makeup fascinates me.

however, and it's a big however,

i myself don't wear a ton of makeup on a daily basis.

my daily ritual and the three items i swear by:

a dab of mascara, blush {always!} and a bold lip.  

but, who's to say i can't live on the 'wild side' occasionally, and get all dolled up?

which, explains the shopping splurge pictured above.

{don't worry, it's not all for me. my mother and friend participated in the splurge as well.}

besides, in my opinion, a girl can never have too many lipstick colors.

since i haven't already asked you a million question in the post {ops, sorry!},

one last important one:

if you had to pick three, and only three, items of makeup to wear 

for the rest of your life, what would it be? 

i'm hoping to get a good makeup/product review out of your answers. fun, right?!

so, be specific and detailed- pretty please! 

meanwhile, it's time to be a girly girl and pull out that makeup.

go on, glamour up- it's the weekend!
