The Lipstick League - week of 6.13.11



Question of the Week:

  • How long does it take you to get ready in the morning?

Oh man, this is an embarrassing question. If I'm just running errands and don't really need to "get ready" well I can be out of the house in 20mins- ponytail, blush, mascara, chucks, and a cardigan. It takes me an abnormal amount of time to get out of the house, if I'm going somewhere that counts. My hair alone can take 45 minutes, add that to a 30 min shower and already we are at an hour and fifteen minutes. On to makeup, depending on the look I'm going for applying my makeup can take between 20-30 minutes. Now we are at what? An hour and 45 minutes? Picking out clothes and accessories take at least another 30 minutes. Overall I would say I need to start getting ready 3 hours before I have to leave the house. That also brings me to Reason #23 of why my husband thinks I'm crazy.

I'm definitely not your typical girl.. I wake up in the morning and I could be out the door within 15 minutes. I'm pretty lazy haha.

I'm JUST like you and it makes me feel so much better that I'm not alone. It takes me about 30 minutes in the shower, 45-60 minutes to do hair (especially if I'm straightening), 30-45 minutes to do makeup, and 15-20 minutes to pick out an outfit. Yeah, I'm in the 2-3 hour time zone too. Less if I'm just putting my hair in a ponytail (which I do alot, because 1 hour for hair? Come on!). And honestly? I never think I look all that great. Just put together...ugh.
