Bake off - Kim joy

Just catching up, I'm watching bread week. Kim joy seems a lovely woman with her own style. She has a perfectly pleasant face....why don't her friends tell her her make up is so overkill! Bright blue eye shadow and that blusher! She looks so silly and she could look so much nicer without it all. IMHO obviously...

Given that she clearly isn’t blind she knows full well what her make up looks like and therefore must be happy with it.

Why should she conform to your interpretation of how someone should look?

PoliticalBiscuit · 03/10/2018 17:50

Just guessing here but I would think that she likes it that way, and not the way her friends would prefer.... Hmm

Theweasleytwins · 03/10/2018 17:50

Ah couldnt put my finger on what exactly made her face unsettle me
Definitly way too much make up

WannabeMumm · 03/10/2018 17:51

It's her style. She likes a bit of colour. Get over it.

SnipSnipMrBurgess · 03/10/2018 17:52

I think she wears it like that on purpose. It's a look.

Justmuddlingalong · 03/10/2018 17:52

Because her friends are her friends for a reason. And obviously love her exactly how she is.

WhirlwindHugs · 03/10/2018 17:54

She has tweeted that she likes her make up how it is. Which is fair enough.

MagentaRocks · 03/10/2018 17:56

It’s not a look I would go for but each to their own. Wouldn’t it be boring if we were all the same and credit to her for doing what she wants in the face of people slagging her off for her choices.

indianwoman · 03/10/2018 17:57

She obviously does like it. But she does look ridiculous. I know each to their own and all that but if I looked ridiculous I'd want me friends to tell me!

I like her style it suits her plus suits her name

Justmuddlingalong · 03/10/2018 17:58

You think it looks ridiculous. She likes it. End of.

bunintheoven88 · 03/10/2018 17:58

I think your being a bit judgey OP, I really like her make-up. Noel wears eye-liner and looks amazing too.

TheSpottedZebra · 03/10/2018 17:59

What lucky people your friends must be, OP, with you ready to give them your opinion on their face.

And yay! Kim-Joy's fame means she lucks out too.

ChinaCrisis · 03/10/2018 17:59

I find the freakish HD eyebrows and green tinged faces that so many women prefer nowadays to be far more disturbing to be honest.

At least she looks like an individual but seriously? Who gives a shit about what other people wear and do?

bunintheoven88 · 03/10/2018 17:59

'In your opinion' she looks ridiculous OP. You missed that bit out.

MagentaRocks · 03/10/2018 18:00

I don’t think she looks ridiculous. She looks different to the norm that you see nowadays.

TheNavigator · 03/10/2018 18:01

OP, you are beginning to sound a but of a miserable joy sucker. Kim Joy plainly doesn't wear make up to try to be conventionally attractive, she is all about the style and the colour. Personally I think fake tan, contouring and lip fillers look far more ridiculous that Kim Joy's colourful, cheerful face.

CiderBrains · 03/10/2018 18:01

She does look ridiculous and every week I want her to go!

Doyouthinktheysaurus · 03/10/2018 18:02

I think she looks lovely, quirky and individual.

She’s very pretty.

lurkingfromhome · 03/10/2018 18:02

Lovely. Another thread where a woman is being horrible about another woman for no good reason whatsoever.

Really, you honestly think the way a perfectly nice-seeming woman chooses to present herself is worth making a negative public statement about? Like women don't get enough judgemental shit already?

Luglio · 03/10/2018 18:03

My friends know better than to venture an opinion on my appearance.

That's not what friends are for. I've got a fucking mirror.

YeTalkShiteHen · 03/10/2018 18:04

I don’t actually think she looks ridiculous, I think her whole look is put together deliberately to show who she is and it suits her.

What I do find ridiculous is feeling the need to start a thread slating and mocking a perfect stranger online. Has it occurred to you how she’d feel if she read it? Do you care?

MarshaBradyo · 03/10/2018 18:05

I bet her friends like / love her for who she is and would hate it if she changed to suit your opinion

QueenOfMyWorld · 03/10/2018 18:05

I wish I had the bollocks to do exactly as I please make up wise,good for her I say.

NotUmbongoUnchained · 03/10/2018 18:06

I love her makeup.
