Annoyingly-Spelled “Escentuals” Makeup Update:
(Because I offer only the best in heart-pounding journal content. No need to pay for the full seat here, folks, when you’ll only need the edge!)
Well tickle me Elmo and count me among the converted, I love this makeup. I. LOVE. THIS. MAKEUP! In fact, picture me demonstrating my enthusiasm by galloping around all fat and sweaty like Ballmer and yelling “Bare MINERALS! Bare MINERALS! Bare MINERALS!”
Or…don’t. My point is, this makeup is awesome. I have yet to watch the instructional DVD but I managed to figure it out all by myself this morning, using the big brush that came with the kit and the “Fairly Light” foundation powder. I had some doubts about using a powder, but it went on smoothly and just sort of melded with my skin, creating, no shit, a nice even complexion without adding visible color.
I normally use a liquid foundation, and no matter how carefully I apply it I always can see it on my skin–especially on my nose. This stuff is invisible, and feels totally light and non-masky. My face hasn’t dissolved into a shiny Exxon slick mid-afternoon like it normally does, either.
So! Diagnosis thus far: thumbs up. I probably could have skipped buying the kit and just purchased the foundation and a brush, as I’m not sure yet about the actual benefits of the included “mineral veil” or “skin rev-ver upper” (huh?).
Oh, and to end on a crass note: on my way to work this morning I passed a bunch of young hunky firemen in uniform collecting money at a stoplight, and I thought, how awesome would it be if I had the balls to hang my head out the window and scream, “You can stuff MY boot anytime, baby!” as I drove by?
But of course I didn’t.
