Yes, I spent that much on that little
September25
My husband is the best husband ever because I did something completely irrational and somewhat shameful but rather than raging he will encourage me to do it more often.
I went to the duty free one last time - just in case I missed something the first six times through (see previous post). Anyway, this time I ventured into the makeup section. Just to kill time. Then I thought that if I got eye makeup remover then I could start wearing marcara everyday - at the moment I don’t wear mascara on the weekends in order to give the dark smudges under my eyes time to fade - anyway rather than wandering over to the local Boots for discount pharmacy eye makeup remover I went straight to the clinique counter and spent 20 dollars on a 75ml tube.
I know, crazy.
But it doesn’t stop there.
On my way over to the cash register I passed the Chanel desk and my eye was caught by some strange square tube of brown stuff. “What,” I asked, “is this?”.
“It’s eyeshadow…easy eyeshadow.”
‘Easy eyeshadow’ I thought, ‘this guy is speaking my language’.
“The beige or brown shades would look good on you.”
‘Yes indeed’ I thought reaching out a hand to examine this miracle easy eyeshadow more closely.
I bought it. 25 dollars on eye shadow and I bought it. And the reason…because I knew that Bert wouldn’t mind. Now if I’d bought the long-lasting lip shimmer from Bobbi Brown, then we may have had issues but I resisted and, guess what, the eyeshadow is easy and Ieven if I can’t really tell the difference between it and the 5 dollar three-colour all merging together eyeshadow I usually wear, I’m sure there is a difference and I’m sure it’s worth every cent.
