The Most Expensive Eye Makeup In The World
Yesterday, I saw something that I never before thought possible – makeup that costs over $1000! Don’t take me wrong, I like to spend money on makeup, but anything that would require me to go take out a $1000 cash loan just to pay for just isn’t worth it. You want to know the saddest part of the whole experience? There were three, yes three, people in line who were PURCHASING THE MAKEUP! For someone who spends at the most $100 on any makeup, I just really couldn’t believe it.
Ok, so some background so you can understand why someone would go into debt for some makeup:
I was traveling in Beverly Hills and decided that I had to go to Rodeo Drive and do the ‘Pretty Women’ thing and do a little window shopping down Rodeo Drive. I went in about four stores before I realized that I didn’t really belong. All the workers were looking at me like “Yeah, she’s not buying anything”…and they were right, especially at the Gucci store (which is where I found the makeup that is outrageously priced).
Of course, most everyone who was there to actually purchase something is in a different financial position than I am, but really – does anyone need to spend that much money on anything that you will wash off at night? I don’t think so. So, being as outgoing as I am, I decided I would ask someone why they were purchasing that makeup. Bad decision. The first person I asked just turned their nose up (literally, I never realized that people actually do that) and the second pretended I didn’t exist. The third person who finally answered game me a typical “dumb blond” (no offense, I’m blond) answer of ‘why not’?
Bottom line and what I learned: I don’t belong in Beverly Hills, and will sit band and enjoy where I’m at just fine.
