its true!!

was at the post office the othger day and noticed this womans make up. the foundation was soo thick you could've made patterns in it with a stick! but the worst thing was, was the tide mark that it left. her face was a lovely peachy tone, but her neck was lily white. she looked rank!

fgs, you'd think people would learn that darker foundation doesnt make you looked tanned, it makes you look like a twat! and if you do want to use a darker one then FGS blend it in!!!

agree - but I ALWAYS suffer from tidemark paranoia and have to run to the loos at work 20 zillion times a day to check that I don't have two tone skin. Not vain, but I am the woman who will have forgotten to put eyeshadow on both eyes, or will have smudged mascara all over the shop.

i stupidly bought non-waterproof mascara, with my weepy eyes, not good. but my foundation when i wear it is perfect

she's obviously not heard of Chanel Vitalumiere

Theres a mum at school like this, in this hot weather she's wearing much less foundation and looks sooo much better. I'd love to tell her, but don't suppose it's something I could say without offending her, such a shame.

misdee · 27/07/2006 20:27

actually i am surprised the whole lot didnt slide down her face, it was hot.

glassofwine, tell her she's looking well and ask if she's been on holiday

tis universal code for 'you look less crap' - v good for saying to people who have lost weight / are wearing make up and usually looks rank with non / are wearing none if usually look rank with lots etc etc
