15 Ways You Know You are Wearing Stage Makeup

It's a pain to put on, a pain to take off, but we all secretly love it. And here's how you know you're wearing it:

1.       It took you 15 minutes to just make up your eyes.

2.       Your lips look like they belong on a clown.

3.       Your eyelashes can be referred to as “cave woman eyelashes”.

4.       You have at least 3 shades of eye shadow on.

5.       You have eye shadow all the way up to your eyebrow.

6.       A friend had to help you with some portion of your makeup.

7.       When you leave the theatre you get looks from just about everyone in sight.

8.       You had to re-glue your eyelashes half way through a performance.

9.       Your eyelashes obstruct your vision.

10.   It takes you twice the time it usually does to take off your makeup at night.

11.   Your lipstick is still bright red after eating/drinking/trying desperately to wipe it off.

12.   You don’t recognize yourself when you look in the mirror.

13.   Your cheeks are almost as red as your lips.

14.   You have to use an eyelash curler to keep the mascara out of your eyes.

15.   You look like a clown and a hooker had a baby.

Now dancers stop complaining and put your damn eyelashes on.
