There are thousands of women (just in Chicago, apparently) that don't know when to "say when" when it comes to make-up.
PUT DOWN YOUR BRUSHES AND COMPACTS! Or, at least, use them more rationally.
If I can't see your skin when I am two feet away, because it is covered in a 1930s Hollywood film worthy shellac, then chances are you are wearing WAY too much make-up.
I was sitting next to a 20-something girl on the Diversey bus the other day, who was way too attractive to even warrant this much coverage. Her make-up was tragically piled on so thick I could actually smell it. That is revolting.
What I find so ironic is that these women are wearing this much make-up to improve their appearance, when in fact it usually makes their skin look plastic and ages their appearance.
If I were a straight man dating such a woman (insert laughter here), I certainly wouldn't want to kiss such a face.
So what gives?
I always thought the "less is more" mantra was very applicable to a gal's make-up regimen, aside from special evenings out on the town, red-carpet events or drag queens. We're all used to seeing our grandmothers smothered in cake foundation, unnatural shading, and penciled-in eyebrows, but lately a new crop of 20 and 30-somethings are falling victim to over-application.
I want you girls to stop it right here, and right now!
Make-up is supposed to enhance your beauty, not make you look like Liberace.
You're beautiful enough as you are...let's not over-do it, mmmkay?
