The Price of Beauty

The Price of Beauty

Or, should I say torture??

It's been a while since I've manicured my brows. They aren't all that thick and a good portion of them are hidden by my glasses, now.

Out of nostalgia today I decided it was time to tame those beasts.

I quickly discovered why it was all so easy for me to abandon my daily plucking ritual when I started wearing glasses.

It hurts like a bitch!

plucks in and my eyes were watering and my lip was twitching. This might just end up being an all day job requiring large amounts of alcoholic beverage.

For the moment I have ceased my self inflicted torture and have decided to focus on a pedicure.

I may just leave it to the experts and get those bad boys waxed.

 It's what's on the outside that sells and
now that we can just google to find out
what's on the inside. Which cuts down the cost
of beauty through the time and effort
that's saved!
Using more than all the road!

No polish?! How is that possible.... I can't remember a time when my toe nails weren't polished. I don't think I even remember what they look like without polish. Sounds like we need to get you hooked up with some pretty stuff.

    Thanks for sharing

    that was funny

    reminded me of the movie "40 year old virgin" where Steve Carrell gets an incomplete hair removal on his body

    well, that's what came to mind

    here's one that might make sense

    Dusty Springfield - "The Look of Love"

    The look of love
    Is in your eyes
    A look your smile can't
    disguise
    The look of love
    Is saying so much more than
    Just words could every say
    And what my heart has heard
    Well it takes my breath away
    I can hardly wait to hold you
    Feel my arms around you
    How long I have waited
    Waited just to love you
    Now that I have found you
    You've got the look of love
    It's on your face
    A look that time can't erase
    Baby be mine, tonight
I love that movie.... Steve Carrell plays that part perfectly! Thank you for stopping by.... I really enjoy your posts and comments.

    Have you seen that threading the brows thing women do? I don't know if it hurts less, but it sure clears out the hairs fast.
I have seen it and wish like heck someone around me did threading. I live in small town america, though.

    Oh the price we pay for beauty, I would mix alcohol with plucking or cutting of anything. Happy Sunday
Upon more thought, I also thought it would be a bad idea to mix alcohol and hair removal. I do have to work with the public.

    Oooo.... alcohol and tweezers... Bad combo. Potentially... 😮
    Another bad combo, is alcohol and a razor.
    Don't ask me how I know. 😶
    Alcohol and leftover chicken 🐔... now THAT works! 👍 Right? 🤔
    So... ya gonna post some toe pics? 🔥⭕❌
I've decided to leave it to the experts. I just can't bring myself to do anymore.... lol. Besides, it takes like 5 minutes to just pay someone to rip them out in one clean sweep.

As for the toes....

If I could remember how to post a photo, I would.
