You get to say comedy movie things when you're bi...

So...wore eye make-up to work today (don't fall over dead in shock, folks), since I'm trying to figure out something good for the yearly company shindig--which I've been told I'm going to, no excuses, now that I do not have a controlling, antisocial SO.

Well, I've been asking folks how it looks, because I would really like to not look like a total idiot when I go (and make-up is...well...pretty much a necessity to Big Events, and something I know nothing about. :/)

Anyhow, she looked, and commented 'You better watch out; you're gonna end up attracting a guy...or a girl...or...something." (She knows I'm bi)

My response?

"I think I'm gonna stick with guys right now. I understand them when all they want me for is dick relief. Girls, on the other hand? I keep finding the crazy ones. That's a pretty good sign I should probably leave the women alone, you know?"

...it made her laugh, at any rate.

Hunh. Yeah, I think I'd go with a lot of foundation for an even natural look, and then some kind of maximizer for huge long lashes. :P

I really want to avoid anything heavy.

Fortunately, it doesnt take much foundation to even my eye skin out (Conceeler just sinks into my skin and does nothing). But it also 'washes' me out there, which is why I'm checking out eyeshadow to wear at the shindig. Plain eyes at work is fine--I'm tossing boxes after all. Big fancy dinner though...won't fly. Especially if I'm dressed up. I'll look really off in a nice dress and 'no' makeup.

Yep. Something dark there to create a line without putting powder on. But not heavy. :D Just maximizer for more length.
