Well, we’re having some time apart. As much as I love my current foundation (and really, I do), I just feel like I haven’t had the chance to experience everything that’s out there. So we had a serious discussion about our future together on the weekend.
Me: We need to talk.
Foundation: That sounds… ominous.
Me: It’s not you, it’s me! Really, you’re wonderful.
Foundation: Are you breaking up with me?
Me: I think we just need some time apart… to figure things out.
Foundation: But I’ve given you everything you ever wanted: long wear, great coverage, a matte finish.
Me: I know, and I love you for it. I’m very happy and comfortable with you. But maybe I need to try some new things. How will I know you’re the one for me if I’ve never tried anything else?
Foundation: (sobbing) Well don’t come crying to me when your face is all shiny and you start breaking out!
There were tears, and some makeup remover was spilt. But I think I’ve made the right decision. Maybe I’ll realise that my current foundation is the love of my life. Or maybe I’ll find something even better. I need to play the field a bit. See what’s out there. And reassess what I want.
So I started at the top, with a little luxe foundation haul. Chanel Perfection Lumière and DiorSkin Forever. Let’s enjoy our freedom and ogle these gorgeous foundation bottles for a moment.
Right, I think I’ve successfully run that metaphor into the ground.
Wish me luck on my quest for the perfect foundation!
