1. “I’m just winging it, my life, my eyeliner, everything”
I’ve tried the spoon, tape, I’ve tried all the tricks but nothing works better than free hand. Pencil is the easiest type of liner to master because most minor fixes are just a smudge away. But for the classic look, pencil probably isn’t the route you should go. Liquid liner creates a precise line for expert glam appeal, but calls for a steady hand. |
2. When your hair looks so good right before you wash it!
3. “Some days your hair is mostly dry shampoo, hairspray, and hope”
4. Why are you so dressed up?
I asked my friend Ruby (or if you follow her on instagram you know her as @rubysmusings) her thoughts on the subject. Here is what she had to say! "I get about three different responses most often when I am out and about, one delights, and one annoys. The first is often from elderly ladies, 'You remind me of how my Mother once dressed' , that makes me smile, means I have achieved my style goals. |
5. Is that a costume?
6. I wish I had the time to get ready everyday.
7. Sleeping in Rollers
8. Wherever my bobby pins go, I hope they’re happy.
9. Where did all your money go?
10. When women wear makeup they’re lying to us.
I have always been attracted to a full face of makeup. I remember in junior high how badly I wanted to wear eyeliner and my mom wouldn’t let me. (probably for the better) When I was pulled out of that school to be temporarily homeschooled I got so bored I started watching makeup and hair tutorials. I mastered a set of Victory Rolls, I never mastered pin curls, and I learned how to do a fierce cat eye. | Then looking for a new look to start out my high school career I came across Bettie Page and obviously my hair has been the same since. |
I couldn’t have said the words better myself, and to me that is the biggest pinup problem. I love my full face of makeup, I worked hair to learn how to blend and gently apply blush. I could put on my lip stain in my sleep. I once dated someone who was embarrassed I wrapped up my curls to sleep on them. No one was going to see me but him and he had never wished I was an “average” girl more than then. |
