These are all based on things I've actually done. #9 hasn't happened,
but my future husband will have to deal, the third choice for my kids'
names is Paris. :-)
Anyway...
1. You go out of the house, see a complete stranger with mismatched
foundation or terrible shadow, you think, "They would look so much
better in Fairly Light 1.2!" or "They're eyes would SO POP with a
little wet lining of Downtown and some foiling of Queen Tiffany and
Hottie!" (Extra points if you go up to them and tell them about BE!)
2. You can't do ANYTHING (vacuum, cook, do the laundry) especially
anything outside, (rake the yard, get the mail, answer the door when
the UPS guy knocks) without putting on makeup first...forget the
clothes, it's sweats and a stained T, but you NEED your makeup.
3. You flip out and nearly have a meltdown when the sample size of
your favorite liner/shadow/glimmer/glimpse/shadow runs out and you
can't find your full size jar! Extra points if you immediately go
online and order a new jar, even though you KNOW it's around
somewhere.
4. The world's colors are no longer, green, blue, pink ect...they're
Celery, Sailor and Kiss.
5. As far as you're concerned Cupcake is not a food, should not be
eaten. It should be applied, wet or dry, to your eye lids, and you
can't understand why the baker at the store keeps looking at you funny
when you're trying to figure out which frosting color would match your
new angora best.
6. There are no other makeup brands besides Bare Escentuals. Cover
Girl, Revlon, Maybelline and Almay simply exist for those who know
nothing of 'proper' makeup. Poor things.
7. You buy clothes based on which eye color would match your new purchases best.
8. Your TVs remote no longer has an Up and Down channel. Your TV is
set to QVC and that's it!
9. Sephora and Ulta are the names of your two children.
10. Your dog (or cat's) name is Leslie. But you call him/her BeeBee,
because it reminds you of BE.
11. You do your taxes, figure out your return and immediately think,
"Great, now I can buy X number of new eye colors from BE!" or "I've
been DYING to buy the new 2005 Grand collection off of QVC." [any
substitution of BE products for this number deserves points. Bonus
points if you can calculate the number of BE eye colors you can buy
WITH tax and shipping after you get your refund and/or you know WHICH
colors you're going to get without checking a list or website.]
