Motivating Make-Up

I do not consider myself to be a real girly girl. I enjoy dressing up, but I am frequently found in jeans or my sweet VS sweatpants (so much to when my car was broken into and they were stolen, I immediately went to Vicki's and bought a new pair).

I could, however, live in a spa. My bed would obvi be a massage table and my daily routine would include a morning facial, lunchtime mani/pedi combo, late afternoon exfoliation & seaweed wrap, an early evening waxing, and a bedtime massage. (*if anyone feels like this may be a real life possibility, please let me know asap.)

Despite my love for the spa, I do not have a love for make-up. I do not like the feeling of having a thick & heavy goo on my face. And I have a hidden fear of wearing make-up too often which eventually would lead to me looking like a completely different person should I choose not to wear it. Do not make fun of me for this. I have seen this happen to people before; without make-up, they get a sort of knee-jerk reaction from others. Kind of like, "Oh good Lord who are you?" Not something I want to be tortured with EVER. All of this being said, I have managed to find a make-up brand that I actually enjoy lathering my precious face in.

Motives.

I have been using this make-up for almost 3 years now. I adore it. The concealer and liquid powder glide on smoothly without a cakey feel. The mascara makes my eyes pop, and the eyeliner doesn't give me a 'hooker who shacked last night' complex. The eyeshadow and blush provide a nice touch of color that stays with me throughout the day and night. And the lipstick is subtle but sheek.

I highly recommend checking it out. Whether you're a girly girl or not, you just might be motivated to become one.
