Pure Stubborness...
Published on Friday 2nd May 2008
In a mad hurry to beat the Friday night traffic out of London last weekend, I threw some clothes into a bag for the other half and me and picked up the car from the garage (service - grh!). ALL he had to do was throw in our wash bags AND my make up bag – a task that apparently sounds easier said than done.
 After a hideous drive down the M4(never good for the mood) and feeling in desperate need of a quick freshen up before that much needed glass of wine, I whipped upstairs to freshen up....
Now all us girls have our makeup staples and mine really haven’t changed that much in the last few years. Yes I change the odd bronzing product and maybe try a new mascara from time to time, but when it comes to eyeliner I’m afraid I’ve been stuck in my ways for a while now.
So you can imagine my horror when I open our bag and find my good friend Mr Mac Stubborn Brown  eyeliner is not there!
Now touch eclat, bronzer, mascara (and any other wall paint I might need) could be borrowed from the other girls but Stubborn Brown was nowhere to be seen in any of their make up bags. Dramatic maybe but the one thing my mother and I have always agreed on is that we need some definition under our eyes; without it I look like I’ve come back from the dead!
With no Mac for miles, it was a £2.99 job from the local chemist to see me through the weekend. Like my preferred eyeliner I too can be stubborn and it took a lot of persuasion by my other half to lift my mood...
