The Pros & Cons of Makeup

Makeup is something that I'm sure everyone has an opinion on. Whether you pile it on, or wear it thin, appreciate or hate, everyone loves to talk about makeup. 
So here, in this post I have put together a list of Pros and cons I have discovered about makeup. 

Pros

If you are have had a late night, early start or are in general looking rough... NO ONE NEEDS TO KNOW. Yes, you can cover any imperfections, contour until your life's content and feel fabulous. 

Makeup is an amazing way to express yourself. Whether you love a gothic eye or a classic red lip. Makeup lets you be who you want to be (even just for that day) 

It's Fun.

Enhancing your natural beauty. You look a little pale, well go and give yourself a rosy glow girl. You can look as though you are not wearing any makeup at all, a completely nearly natural beauty, but actually you've spent hours perfecting this effortless face. (although no one needs to know that, our little secret)

It has become not just a crazy huge section of the marketplace but an industry in itself. Now not only can you buy a million different kinds of primer but you can watch tutorials on how to use them, read reviews of experiences with them, or better yet, make your own.

Cons

The main con... if its applied badly, you can look vile. Literally like you were attacked by an Urban Decay sales assistant and then after, Rimmel had a wee go too. 

Lipgloss. Hair. AND ANY FORM OF BREEZE OR AIR DISTURBANCE.

Lipstick on your teeth. Literally the worst, especially if no one tells you and you discover it yourself and have no idea how long its been there or how many people saw it.

If you use the wrong sort of products for your skin type or actually just take one of those random allergic reactions to a product.. Has this happened anyone else? When you use a product and your face decides.. "Mmm no. Not today, today that gives us a rash. But next week, it will be fine."

This could just be me... But when your eyes almost leak and you end up with a little ring of mascara/eyeliner under your eye, especially in the outer corner. I'm not talking about crying (thats a completely different problem) just unexplained eye leakage. Please someone tell me this is not just me?!?!

Reallyyy.... 

I could go one forever with these but basically, for as many cons you can find about makeup there is probably just as many pros. 

I still love it, though. I mean who doesn't love being ably to put on some lippy and feel like they can take on the world?!

Anyhow, to round this off, here are some of my fav makeup looks from the Emmy awards earlier this week.
