    No, I came in and shot straight up to my room; I'm hungry and can't face running the gauntlet of cooking, feeling I am about to be questioned.... then told what I SHOULD be doing/buying/cooking/eating ... and where from and how etc.

    ... counting down to D Day :)

    How many days to go?

    If wearing makeup becomes a bind remember there are ways to minimise it. Iirc you have nice skin and eyelashes, the two main things IMO. I dye my lashes (or used to, haven't since the old eye business started, though might do it tomorrow:)). But I still wear mascara with dyed eyelashes. I am not sure if it's age or what, but mine are thinner and shorter than they used to be....:mad:

    I love multiple use things (my Nara orgasm multiple stick gets used a lot, and my bars cactus flower cream blusher gets used on my lips as well, though it's not a multiple. Other than that I can 'make do' with an eyebrow pencil, touche !clat and mascara. I love eyeshadows, I love playing with colour, but honestly, I think I am justa too old and round now. :(. It looks weird. I miss rainbow eyelids or eyeliner. Today I had peacock green eyeliner agon my lower lashes, and IMO that still looks ok. Just.

    I quite like the idea of semi permanant makeup, just for very subtle eyeliner really, but dh would not be keen I know.:D.

    Its only as much of a bind as not wearing joggers/ jeans and a hoodie. :)

    I have pretty crappy skin actually, its just that when I do put make up on, its industrial strength concealer (that's what it's actually described as) that goes on first.

    I think that if you feel like rainbow eyes, you should just go for it :)

    Agreed. They should be done under the Trade Descriptions Act. I almost had my credit card out quicker than silvercar could say "50 shades of grey" then.

    A lot of the no-shows tonight might be due to the fact that its the start of the "midweek parents evening" season at schools. Just spotted that some of the missing ones are mums and dads. expect more evenings like this if that is so.
    Happy birthday CK; missed that earlier on.

    I suppose if it were that sort of thing we would all have natural blush to our cheeks, beautifully radiant eyes and dewey skin.

    But n'ah. It's just makeup.

    I'm here. Watching reruns of Grand Designs and Casualty on the sofa in a pile with various family members and animals.

    Does the orgasm stick work?
