I Got a Twenty-Dollar Bill that Says No One's Ever Seen You Without Makeup

My dad once said something to me that stuck with me forever. (Probably one of the few things that he didn't have to repeat over and over again. Gosh, I remember him always saying, "No pajamas after 8 a.m.!" and "Stop complaining. I'm out here too." Oh, how I don't miss those days.)

So...
The one thing that my dad told me that has always stuck to me?

"If you have to rush to do your makeup, it's better if you just don't do it."

I think it's true. I hate to see people who look like they rolled out of bed with yesterday's makeup on (which was actually just smeared from application during a bumpy car ride). Most of the time, it just looks like you tried to apply it without a mirror.

So to all the women out there -- take my dad's advice.
Take the time or take it natural.

yeah i agree. although there have been times when second day eye makeup looks really good. Sometimes fresh makeup just looks like too much, ya know? But these days it's just mascara and that's it. i miss you. that's all. :)
