Day Eleven

  Without makeup:                     With makeup:

Makeup? What's that? Okay, confession time: I use makeup very rarely off the stage. I wore some for my first date with Mr. Perfect. I wore it the day we got married (you know, pictures were involved). I will wear it when we're having professional pictures taken. Other than that? Not so much.

My makeup bag contains the basics: base, blush, eye shadow, eye liner, lip liner, various shades of lip stick, loose powder, mascara, brushes and sponges, Q-tips, hair elastics.

All this thinking about makeup is making my head ache. Mr. Perfect says that I don't look different with or without makeup. We went hiking on our second date, and I didn't wear any makeup (please, we were in the mountains sweating; yeah, I wanted him to see me with base running down my face -- NOT!). He said he was impressed that I would go without makeup and then said that I looked really good without it, so he wasn't surprised I didn't use it much. Who could resist such a man? Really?

(After thought: I found this post a little disturbing. I mean, women aren't the only ones who blog. So what are men using for the subject of day eleven?)
