Guess what finally arrived? (or, you know, I finally drove over to Hot Topic to pick up my order because it was free ship-to-store)?
Yup, the Star Wars themed makeup from Her Universe! I love the lipstick already, even if the "Dark Side" is crazy dark and I'm not sure I could wear it in public without feeling self conscious. But how could I resist these little lightsabers? Behold my nerdiness as I reach into my R2-D2 shaped purse and pull out Luke Skywalker's lightsaber!
Don't worry, the blade colors are NOT the gloss color. "Dagobah Dusk" is calm matte beige, Tatooine is a pink with sparkles and the Dark Side is a dark purple...okay that one IS the same color!
Speaking of wearing things in public...how the hell does one wear makeup like this? I've never worn makeup apart from lipstick. I went through an eye shadow phase back in the day and it was the "high intensity pigment" styles that really POPPED and, again, not sure I could get away with that out in public now. I guess I just need to look at the colors and figure out what work together? Should I make my eye shadow match my outfit? Is that too extra?
I texted Tim's daughter and told her I would need her to train me. She messaged back:
so I will take that as a yes.
