I’ll let you in on a little secret: you can always tell a lot about a person by what they use to touch up their makeup. It’s a little clue into the personality behind the purse. Your touch-up tool of choice is what you grab on your way out to face the world, so of course it speaks to the person you are. Also, it’s definitely a telltale sign of the gap between who you are and who you think you are. Here’s what I mean.
If You Use These Products, Here’s What Your Makeup Says About You
If you regularly touch up with the DIOR Gloss, you like to romanticise the Dilli metro but you come to college in your papa ki big, blue merc and like to tie bows on your Stanley.
If your go-to touch-up tool is the e.l.f. Liquid Glitter Eyeshadow, you thought you introduced your friends to Euphoria but they actually recommended it months ago and you didn’t watch it until it fell out of the mainstream. Obviously, you love it more than they do.
If you use the Rhode Peptide Lip Treatment, you’ve asked your dad for Botox thrice, and he said no and this was your please ‘don’t be angry with papa, princess’ gift. You don’t have the best relationship with your mom.
If your go-to perfume is the Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Crush Body & Hair Mist, your boyfriend told you he loves the smell of sweet things one time and now he’s acting distant so you’re spraying this day and night in the hopes of him passing you in the hallway and doing the iconic ‘palat‘ move.
If you use the Clinique Black Honey Gloss you went to Lady Shri Ram College For Women and majored in the ‘I don’t really put makeup, I like to stay natural’ discourse. Your best friend is a boy.
If your go-to touch-up is Ruby Woo by MAC, your parents flew you first class to watch Taylor Swift in the 6th grade and your life now will never live up to the kind of adrenaline you felt then.
If you like to carry the Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara, you’re a Gemini. Who touches up on waterproof mascara?
If your go-to is the Laneige Glowy Balm, you’ve read one page of the Subtle Art Of Not Giving A Fuck but you bring it up every time someone asks you what your favourite book is.
Your lipstick of choice is the Anastasia Beverly Hills Satin Lipstick? You have relatives abroad who regularly send you the trendiest things. You were the first in your class to get Adidas Originals and now you have a Kate Spade bag but your bank account is at three digits.
If you use the MyGlamm Pout Lipsticks, you’ve seen every episode of Koffee With Karan, unironically.
That’s all.
