no makeup makeup??

Sometimes going to class doesn't require makeup. Like my running class. I don't think anyone cares at all if there is any makeup on my face. There are two boys in my class (I'm not saying I have to try to impress any boys or that me wearing makeup actually impresses any boys, oh stop. You know what I'm trying to say). One has a very pretty girlfriend in the class and the other I don't think would like me like that even if I looked like the most beautiful girl in the world, get what I'm saying? 

Unfortunately, I have two (three on Thursdays) other classes on the days I run so I like to not look like a complete slob. To do this I must take on the no makeup makeup look. The no makeup makeup look, you ask? How do you do this? Well, I'll tell ya! It is putting on makeup to make it look like you're not wearing makeup!! What's the point then, you ask? Well, I do not have perfect skin. Actually, I have bad skin. I won't deny it. I'm not confident enough to go out into the world with my uneven skin tone, blackheads, and other blemishes showing. I am insecure. I admit it! I like to cover up the blemishes with a light foundation and then go over it with concealer. Even if I'm trying for a makeup makeup look I'll try to blend out everything I put on so it doesn't look cake-y but I especially do it if it is for a no makeup makeup look. After concealer I will powder where I apply concealer then where I normally get oily. This pertains to my T-zone area (the forehead and down the nose, making a T shape, ooooh). I even take this no makeup makeup look a step further and apply mascara. I think it makes me look more awake than I probably am. To add a wee bit more awakeness to my face if I really need it I will add a nude colored eyeliner to my bottom waterline. My favorite is from Rimmel. I wrote about it before. 

That is what I do if I want to achieve my no makeup makeup look. I will have to be replacing my foundation soon because I might be running out of mine soon. I'll have to be on the search for a new one. I'm thinking about making the change to a BB cream when that happens. If I end up loving it I will definitely write about it here. 

I feel like my life is being run by the Olympics and I am not hating it. I do hate that people like to post big things before they happen on television with the huge time difference. I don't want to know these things beforehand!! 

I hope no one has spoiled anything for you today. 

Until tomorrow,

Caroline
