The lipstick experiment: Suddenly made up every day!

"It's just a bit of a red color," I think, as the fifth person that morning looks at my new one? do we call it? "Look" appeals. However, the reaction of my daughter's six-year-old girlfriend is also totally worthless. "You have something red on your mouth," she just says, turns around and is gone. The other comments, however, are amazingly emotional: "My goodness, you're a completely different type," says the neighbor in the hallway surprised, "May I still kiss you now?" My own man asks in confusion. "You are so beautiful, Mama," roars my three-year old enthusiastically.

"Am I so inconspicuous otherwise?" I ask myself, Basically I need ten minutes in the morning in the bath: combing hair, brushing teeth, concealer, mascara, a little rouge? finished. I'm almost never unadorned, I just look like this. My natural look is pale. Blonde eyelashes, light eyebrows, skin like Edward from "Twilight", just without the glitter in the sunlight. I am relatively colorless, except for black eye edges. When I recently wore red lipstick at a party, I got about three compliments for it, since then I want more of it. That's why I try a make-up week.



A little bit of help here and there has to be with me anyway. ? Correct? In contrast, I almost never wear make-up with lipstick and all the trimmings. First, because I have lipstick everywhere after about five minutes, just not on my mouth anymore. Second, because I somehow feel uncomfortable when I look too conspicuous. Red mouths are an eye-catcher, but you should be brave

I am much more looked at. Especially by myself

I have to do that now. On the first day with bright red lips I'm unsure: In the handy shop around the corner, the seller is very, very friendly and attentive with me. As he talks to me, he stares at my mouth. Is that all smeared again? Or maybe he likes me? Or does the overgrown woman with the destroyed cell phone just feel sorry for him? Anyway, he fixed that with the phone. Maybe he could have done without my make-up experiment. After the appointment, I look in the mirror and notice: Everything there, where it should be.



Whether bright red, orange or pink lips: On all seven days I make positive experiences. "You look like a lipstick model," says my friend Nina, which is quite overkill, but I'm still happy. "This color makes your whole face shine," says a friend from the day care center. "You remind me of your mother in young," my most honest friend says dryly, In fact, there is something in it. My mother is always made up and neat. Not like me. I take it as a compliment.

In fact, I'm much more looked at, by strangers on the street, by people I know. Especially by myself. In the first few days I develop a strong control compulsion. He gets better after three days. First, because I notice that the lipstick disappears at most too fast, but does not land anywhere on the face or on my teeth. Second, because it takes too much time to fiddle with my mirror every ten minutes.



Labello goes much faster than lipstick? and on the way

The biggest disadvantage of the whole thing is the time: Lubricate Labello on the mouth is at least simply faster with me? and especially on the way. I am not very practiced and need a bit of time in the morning to optimize the whole make-up thing. Just knocking on red paint is not possible, that's too stupid even to me, I want to do it properly. With a little powder to fix, unclustered mascara and even rouge. This takes a while.

That's why I'm glad when I declare my experiment finished after seven days. I know now that I do not hurt a bit of color on my face. However, everyone is so excited about my new self, because otherwise I just do not look that way, For every day ? And especially in the morning at 8 this is just too exaggerated.

At least my husband is relieved, he can now kiss me again without any problems to say goodbye. And I have more time again. But next Saturday I'm going to a party? and I'll get the red lipstick out again
