That Time One Time I Was Tired and Applied Lipgloss As Eyeshadow
I’ve testing out the new E.L.F. Beautifully Bare Smooth Matte Eyeshadow I purchased recently and so far, they are a love! I’ll have a review sometime next week on them for you!
Last night, I was out pretty late and I woke up like a zombie this morning. I shouldn’t use being out late as an excuse because generally, I’m like the walking dead in the morning anyway. I’m so not a morning person and I give major, major props to anyone that is. I am and always will be a night owl.
To get me up in the morning the first thing I need is a hot shower, after that a good strong cup of tea, and even after all that I’m still partially asleep until 5 PM.
You have to be pretty careful what you do in the morning when you’re walking around like a zombie. There have been times I forgot my purse in the house, left my front door open, and a variety of other mishaps because I’m walking around in a fog.
This morning, I applied lipgloss as an eyeshadow.
I’m pretty smart or at least I like to think I am because I lay all my makeup out the night before to save time. Last night before heading to bed I laid out E.L.F. Beautifully Bare Smooth Matte Eyeshadow in Soft Beige, E.L.F. Lip Lacquer in Natural, and one of the new baked blushes from the Kiko Lovegrove Collection. I’m traveling today and I wanted something soft, natural, and comfortable to travel in.
I had already tried Blushing Rose in the Beautifully Bare Smooth Matte Eyeshadow and loved it so, I was expecting the same of Soft Beige.
So, it happened, I applied lipgloss on my eyes instead of eyeshadow. The Soft Beige Eyeshadow looks so similar to the Natural Lipgloss I grabbed the Natural Lipgloss and proceeded to smear it all over my eyes. I didn’t even realize this and kept trying to build. And all through the process I was thinking, “Wow! The texture on this is so much different from the Blushing Rose I tried originally! Why is it so sticky? Why is it so gross?” I realized about 5 minutes into the process I was applying lipgloss on my eyelids and not eyeshadow.
Head desk.
Repeat.
Ridiculous to say the least but it sure does make for a very, very funny story right? And in my defense they really do look alike right!?
What are some makeup mishaps or mistakes you’ve made?
