Yes, I do illuminator on my cheekbones, but worse case scenario it looks like a nice glow, not like clown makeup. I think some contouring is best in photos with very specific lighting, otherwise it makes folks look nuts.

Thank goodness I didn't drop the milk. I would have cried. Instead I laughed at myself, thinking "OF COURSE you just dropped your most critical piece of clothing into the nastiest abyss known to man." I was pretty shocked I didn't cry (I was only 5 weeks or so postpartum and man the hormones...no joking around with…

Nope. I am (usually) okay with movie adaptations. I get that things need to change in order to make a movie work, but this is too much. The movie should be black and white. Jonas should be 12. I am firmly in the NOT OKAY group on this one.

Off-topic: I'm continually shocked when I read about women in the US having to go back to work 2 months or sometimes even less after having a baby. It seems way too soon! Like, how do you even think about coordinating child care and all the follow-up doctor appointments with a 2-month old AND having to go back to…

it probably had to do with the naked boobies...its not easy to cover up completely while pumping. they probably had to sign something that says they won't sue the company if someone accidentally sees a boob. and other stuff about contaminated milk, refrigeration blahblah and then it would have to be signed in…

It's largely the issue of germs on your pumping equipment which could get into the milk. With my machine, I needed to fit bottles to the little hose things attached to the machine, then attach the bottles to my nipples. All this is pretty gross to imagine doing in a stall, where you would need to set things on the…

I'm hoping there is some legit reason I - as a non-mother - don't see, but why in the actual fuck does it take paperwork and 3 days to gain special access to pump your cans?

It doesn't hurt that she's really pretty, with or without makeup.

This is awesome. The fucking brush hairs all over your face. Unreal. Everything about this is great.

"Yea, there's really no way to do this that anybody told me..." - story of my entire makeup applying life. Just WINGIN IT erryday.

This is actually the most helpful makeup tutorial I've ever seen. No joke.

"But I spent $40 on it, so I use it to validate the purchase."

YUP.

And you definitely shouldn't wear makeup if you don't feel like it! Or go all-out with peacock false lashes and the whole shimmery kablooey! Whatever makes you feel comfortable and happy is the right thing to do. And I hear you on the not having patience thing. Some days, I'm lucky to get out of the house with enough…

Contouring for regular people and also everyone who's not doing a photoshoot- get some kind of very subtle illumizer or something like ysl touche eclat. Use that under your eyebrow, top of your cheekbones and down the bridge of your nose, use bronzer or blush as usual. Blend, blend, blend. That is it. Do not try…

This is basically what I wanted to post exactly. I was looking at these pictures, thinking that A. They used the wrong colors (All of them used too light a color), and B. They blended they SO BADLY (SOOOOO BADLY).

Other comments have good example of nice contouring, so I won't bother trying to find any. But the…

This article could've been a good jumping off point for discussing the racism of the small nose beauty ideal. But mocking chicks who fuck up their makeup is easier.

Yeah, god forbid a person wear make-up in a way you don't find pleasing. Also, "second-rate drag queen?" Can we not with this.

Jesus, thank you. This shit is all over Pinterest, and all the 'After' photos make these women look like porno-clowns. Put. the. Fucking. Bronzer. Down.

This whole trend baffles me, but especially the turning your nose into The Wall, sky high and fortified by magic.

There is a difference between contouring and bad contouring.
