I like Andy Burnham's makeup

On the Andrew Marr show today morning. Did anyone else notice? Proper eyeshadow, plucked brows and glossy lips Grin

He talked sense as well. For now at least. Who knows? He may yet turn into a weasel politician

They say eyebrows should be sisters not twins but I think he's actually managed twin sisters. Very nicely shaped and symmetrical.

I like a weighty issue to consider on a Sunday morning!

Amrapaali · 03/10/2021 11:32

It certainly is a heavy topic @OutwiththeOutCrowd!

His eyes look naturally lined though.

I guess they all, men and women, have to wear some makeup on TV, at least to reduce shine from bald pates etc. Not a problem for Andy, of course.

Is he wearing excessive makeup?

Is he just one of those people who look like they're wearing mascara but are actually blessed with eyelashes like Bambi?

Questions, questions, questions!!

James Nesbitt needs to contact that stylist !

TheQueef · 03/10/2021 12:11

I've always thought there was guyliner involved with AB.
He looks defined and camera ready at all times.

Didn't see it but Andy Burnham's eyebrows always remind me of the episode of Friends where Chandler plucks Joey's eyebrows. I like him though.

Aspiringmatriarch · 03/10/2021 12:41

I really fancy Andy Burnham. YANBU (not that you asked!)

OutwiththeOutCrowd · 03/10/2021 12:45

It would be certainly be useful if evidence of meticulous eyebrow topiary could be taken as an indication that the owner of the eyebrows would be equally careful keeping the country in shape.

OutwiththeOutCrowd · 03/10/2021 12:46

Too many 'bs' there, whoops!

Amrapaali · 03/10/2021 13:28

Man what I would give to have naturally Bambi esque lashes. Some guys have all the luck

I’ve met him, he actually does look like that.
Nice man too

Hoppinggreen · 03/10/2021 13:33

He offered me a cuppa and went and got it for me

TheQueef · 03/10/2021 14:05

See I knew he was that kind of fella.
You can tell he knows how to fettle a brew.
Sir Kier just doesn't have that everyman aura.
Kier likely knows which fork to use at dinner but how far does that get you?

OutwiththeOutCrowd · 03/10/2021 14:18

I'm just a bit concerned that the manicured eyebrows and tea-making skills might be too metrosexual. Does he not need to get himself a couple of whippets and a flat cap?

OutwiththeOutCrowd · 03/10/2021 14:18

Andy, I mean.

sashh · 03/10/2021 14:21

If you have not seen it, this tells you a lot about this man.

The day after he was handed his arse he was raising the issue in Parliament

My husband has them. So does my son. Everyone comments on how gorgeous son's lashes are and then adds 'I can see he got those from his father'. Envy
OutwiththeOutCrowd · 03/10/2021 14:30

sashh, thank you for the link. I know this is a lighthearted thread but, wow, that story really gives you a measure of the man.

Escapedgoats · 03/10/2021 14:41

If that man knows what a cervix is and who has one I would vote labour if he was in charge.

Amrapaali · 03/10/2021 15:14

@RoseAndGeranium I've had that kind of comment as well about DD's good looks. And commenter hadn't even seen DD's dad! Incredibly ouch Angry

I too have met AB and confirm he does look like that. He’s smaller than I thought he’d be and a very nice chap

tiddlysquat · 03/10/2021 15:22

Yes I'm really massively hoping he knows that only women have cervixes.

I voted for him when he ran. Mind you I voted for Starmer too and now have left and won't be voting Labour

He did say he would definitely not challenge Starmer (sadly)

Amrapaali · 03/10/2021 15:25

Nice one @sashh seems to be a man of strong convictions and unshakeable morals.

But what do I know eh? I rooted for Corbyn and then Starmer. Both horrible letdowns. Starmer more so...

He can’t half play football too. I like him too.

Deathraystare · 03/10/2021 15:29

Oh I missed that as could not find the remote (damn it!). I do like him a lot though.
