Every day. Except without hair ties or sunglasses.

Most days I don't have to go out and see customers. My boss wants me to get a webcam so he can see me when we are talking - I am resisting strongly

SuSylvester · 17/05/2010 13:21

I can't go out without tinted moisturiser and Touche Eclat on. That HAS to be the bare minimum else I look like an extra from Thriller

Am growing my hair long again so I can tie back hair on days I can't be arsed to do it. God, I miss being able to tie it back so much

squeaver · 17/05/2010 13:21

No paper bag then??

I do it if I'm going to be at home for most of the day. Then shove on some tinted moisturiser and mascara for school run.

HurleySatOnMe · 17/05/2010 13:22

NEVER
AM v high maintenance considering I am a sahm. I need to look good for my self esteem. I have ishoooooos. I secretly envy the mums in the morning who obviously don't give a rats arse about putting their face on for the school run.

HurleySatOnMe · 17/05/2010 13:22

SuSylvester · 17/05/2010 13:22

PrimroseCrabapple · 17/05/2010 13:22

yup did it this morning, tan evening out skin helps loads.

SuSylvester · 17/05/2010 13:23

yes need some storage bags for loft
am putting winter clothes tights bags etc away

OP posts:
HurleySatOnMe · 17/05/2010 13:23

Ooo me too. Do they do them there?
Have a depressingly sparse wardrobe now it's full of in season stuff that actually fits

onepieceoflollipop · 17/05/2010 13:24

Couldn't do it.

On my worst day I would squirt a bit of dry shampoo through hair (only if it had been properly dried the previous day)

Skin is v greasy so would have to put a bit of base on. Ditto bit of mascara and something on lips.

It doesn't feel liberating to me , it would feel that I had to keep my head down all day!

SuSylvester · 17/05/2010 13:26

the ikea ones are better but they are all in use

OP posts:
onepieceoflollipop · 17/05/2010 13:26

Oh yes I must get loft bags too. The vacuum one (that squished 2 double duvets and 4 pillows into a gap the size of a loaf of bread) has been punctured by a sharp edge somewhere. dh didn't notice

SuSylvester · 17/05/2010 13:38

i have never vacuuumed

Have done the no make up thing accidentally and could have crawled under a stone (where I would have looked right at home) when I realised I had stood, haggard and unkempt, next to the uber groomed school yummy mummy brigade.

Moral of story - do not change school morning routine for ANY reason.

MrsBadger · 17/05/2010 13:45

always

means when I do one or both people fall over at my groomedness - v satisfying

MarthaFarquhar · 17/05/2010 13:50

no
always wear touche eclait, blusher and mascara, otherwise look like a corpse

I am proud to have feral hair though (actually look a bit like Kate Moss's nan)

nikki1978 · 17/05/2010 13:53

God I do this every day. I only wear makeup a couple of times a week and my hair is a PITA so is up a lot of the times. I am lucky that I have good skin and tbh everyone is used to me with no makeup so noone screams in terror at the sight of me

I think I look ok au naturel!
