Kabuki Knockoff

Sometimes ... I just want to do something weird. Usually it is because that thing that is weird on me looked FABULOUS on someone else I met ... as is the case with this. In this case a girl working for my local Nordie's MAC counter was wearing kabuki style blush like this one day when I went in to hoard MAC lipsticks (a fave pastime of mine ... though not for my wallet) and I just HAD to do what she did!

I think it is completely strange ... but at least I tried it. Kabuki style makeup, along with anything geisha-ish, has fascinated me for a while. Don't think I will be wearing this to work ... but it was fun to try!

Enjoy laughing ... I know I did!
