10 Things Girls Who Love To Wear Makeup Hate To Hear

A new meaning to don't ask don't tell.

10 Things Girls Who Love To Wear Makeup Hate To Hear

1. Why do you wear makeup every day?

Well not that it actually affects anyone other than the person wearing, but it looks good. And even if it didn't, we like to put it on and feel pretty. Also why do people even care?! We don't ask you why you don't.

2. That must take forever to apply.

Let's see, I've been applying makeup since about 4th grade. So that about 3,500, not exact but still. After all these days of makeup application it takes about 15 minutes. But it's not like we're taking up your time, now are we?

3- Can you do my makeup? Ya know, for free. Some girls might be generous with this. Especially for friends and family. But no, I don't want to waste my $26 foundation on you, and it's disgusting to share eye makeup. So unless you're paying for new mascara, figure it out yourself. YouTube tutorials exist for a reason.

4- Woah you're not wearing makeup! Are you sick or tired? We are probably not sick nor tired. Sometimes the alarm clock doesn't go off and we don't have time to cover our bags and brighten our eyes. And thank you for making us feel like crap about our natural appearance. We're aware we look different without makeup.

5- You don't need make up. I know. We all know. Make up is like an art form to some of us. Personally I just love how it looks, trying new products, and playing with different colors. Not every girl who wears make up on a daily basis is insecure.

6- Your foundation doesn't match your skin tone. Mistakes happen, and so does different lighting. Sometimes everything looks matched and blended in the bathroom mirror or a selfie, and then the sun comes out and you look like pumpkin. But that's just how it goes sometimes and most girls aren't going to go and spend more money based on someone else's opinion.

7- Your eyebrows look fake. If someone has clearly colored in their eyebrows with a pencil or a kit, just save yourself from looking dumb. I hate to admit it, but drawn on eyebrows, even over real hair, look pretty fake. Not always, some people are pros with it, but usually they do, and most of us makeup users have excepted this. Few people are born with naturally flawless brows.

8- Can I watch you do it? This is only a problem when people ask to watch then are breathing down your neck. OR when people comment and ask questions every two seconds. What brand is that? Read the label. How do you apply mascara without marking your eyelids? Um you just watched how I did that. Just watch from afar and in silence, I'm begging you.

9- I thought you had acne? Well you brilliant scholar, those strange lumps on my face covered in foundation is acne. Our makeup is not a bulletproof solution to pimples. Some brands can even make it look worse. Some don't cover enough, others look caked on, and others cause more acne! So instead of calling out the pimple you saw a week ago, admire my flawless looking skin.

10- You're wearing too much makeup. Whenever people say this I just want to scream "YOU'RE NOT WEARING ENOUGH." But that's just as rude. Notice the keyword rude, just ignore it if it's not your face.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
