My wonky lip:
For instance, I’ve noticed my lip has gone a bit wonky – it’s not massively noticeable (so I’m told) but it’s definitely something I’m bothered about, so much so that I’m seriously considering having some kind of temporary makeup done on it! I saw a possible one on Groupon today but I think I need to do a bit more research into it first.
Also, my hands are not hairy at all to look at – yet when I do my close up swatch photo’s I am constantly noticing hairs in them – I know there are always going to be small, unnoticeable hairs but it’s rather disconcerting to see them so close up in photo’s!
My 3 'best' fingers:
I also get bothered by my poorly fingers in nail swatches as I have psoriasis and it can show up quite a lot in these shots - hence my first photo’s on here being on fake nail wheels; and hence why you’ll also usually only see maybe 3 of my fingers on my left hand (see above), as they’re the ‘best’ looking ones lol!
I can’t think of one area of my body that I actually like – it’s a sad fact, but a true one. Do you have any body hang-ups? Do you avoid photographs? Am I being completely irrational?
For your fingers, why not consider doing swatches with your other hand? I have eczema on my right hand so I always take picture of my left hand (=
ReplyDeleteYour lips are NOT wonky. Fact. Mine are wonky, one sides fuller than the other.
ReplyDeleteAnd I think we all have hang ups of some kind or other, it's how we cope with them that makes the difference.

I agree with Ms Red, your lips look great! I have really weird wonky lips and that's why you'll never see a close up of them on my blog :P
ReplyDeleteGABY - I would but my left hand IS my better hand. :--( My right hand is awful, so much more red and inflamed (it's still patches, not all over but still very much in view)! xx
ReplyDeleteMs Red - Ahh thanks, but that was from the Max Factor post where I was able to disguise it a little more than if they were left natural. Your lips look lovely on your photo's - they look very smooth too, I envy that as mine always look dry (think this is down to the psoriasis/dry skin thing) so have to disguise things haha! xx
Kat - Thanks lovely, they are disguised a little with the Max Factor pen though. It's weird though, I'd rather do a close up on my wonky lips than show my whole face as I haven't the confidence to do that! It took me so long to put my face on Twitter for a small photo and even then, that's an old picture where I don't feel I look too bad haha! xx
I feel like a right misery writing about my hangups, but I figure it might help me get past them... somehow. xx
I only realised that I have wonky lips when I used the ´mirror image´ button while using my webcam. I really hope that´s not how I look to other people. But then again, maybe wonky lips are normal!
ReplyDeleteHaha, what a way to find out - I'm sure they don't look like that to others anyway! I think wonky lips ARE probably normal... doesn't help in how we feel about them though, does it? xx
