I’m a girly girl in that I love makeup and have 6 different kinds of skincare products just for my face. I read Glamour, Lucky, and Allure (but never Cosmo or Vogue). These magazines are always keen to tell us the things we do that drive men wild in the bedroom and out, and in the good ways and the bad. I remember an article earlier last year that had photos of the contents of a woman’s purse and men’s thoughts on what the girl must be like and whether or not he’d like to date her. Just by the contents of her purse. The results were kinda startling.

Then in January, I read an article on how women go to great lengths to hide their beauty routines from their boyfriends. I remember reading a post last year by Capitol Hill Barbie about her boyfriend’s less than positive reaction to one of her beauty routines, but then he’s also dug around in her bag looking for her rosebud salve. I myself don’t go into great detail about what I do and don’t do in terms of my beauty routines to the men in my life (ha!), but those of you who read this blog probably know that I mention Sephora and beauty counters enough to realize I like that kind of crap.

I’ve always wondered if my mention and obvious love of much that involves beauty is a signal to men that I’m high maintenence or vain or something else unflattering that I don’t think I am. So I’m going to lay bare a few of my beauty secrets – the contents of the shelves in my bathroom. And see if I’m over the top when it comes to my beauty stuff.1. My travel toiletry bag, deodorant and facial moisturizer.
2. A candle, salt scrub, and two hairsprays for the rare occasion I put product in my hair. Nothing truly superfluous yet.
3. Skincare products – exfoliator, spot treatment, facial mask, an errant hair elastic.
4. Random things like bobby pins, a makeup quad, the tiny funnel that goes to my perfume atomizer, the box for an eyelash curler, nail files.
5. Crest white strips, nail polish, more skincare and another hair product that I hardly ever use. 6. This little chest of drawers has hair clips and elastics in the top one and the bottom two are mostly lipsticks/lip glosses, which is my biggest makeup weakness. Then an extra tube of toothpaste and a couple of makeup pots (concealer, blush)
7. The pink bag has mostly abandoned eye shadows and such that I hardly ever use. It also has refills of the kind of mineral make up I do use (the main ‘kit’ is in my bag). The white and blue bags are various bags I cycle through to carry my crap when I travel – there are probably 3 bags within the one, although I never use all of them at once.
8. Makeup brushes, a few loose eyeshadows that I have been using on some evenings out lately. The colorful thing behind the little pots is the 2006 holiday compact from Sephora (it holds their gift cards).
9. The brush and hair clip are self explanatory. The box had a kit of makeup stuff and I just like it too much to throw it out and I haven’t found a home for it yet. The rest is nail polish remover, body lotion and oil. A girl’s gotta keep her skin soft.

So there you have it. There are a couple of other places where I keep beauty loot, but this is the bulk of it. I don’t think it’s too much, especially since I realized that I don’t use even half of what I own, and that I don’t look like a she-lacqued would be beauty pageant contestant when I leave the house.

Is this information grounds for calling a person high maintanence? Or saying that you would date someone? Do men think we wake up looking perfect? Are we less desireable because some of us need a little help or that we have to use a few products to make our skin so soft that men comment on it? Sure, I’d like people to think I wake up looking fabulous, but I don’t live in the movies. And am I worse off for it, in the eyes of men, in light of that fact? Because guess what, guys. I don’t think that even Giselle Bunchen wakes up and thinks she looks fabulous.
