Camming down the rabbit hole Ch5

I reluctantly snapped my mind out of the daydream as today I wanted to be in perfect condition to make the most of my new arrivals. Showered and washed, hair removal cream applied and removed, fully moisturised and smooth I set about blow drying my hair. I had really improved my beauty regime, and it was starting to become much less of a task, which gave me time and energy to try out some of the more challenging items.

I started with the lip plumping gloss, reading the packaging it mentioned they might tingle and sting, and that the effect should last a couple of hours, unless reapplied. Which was perfect as I could decide if it was worth it before the show and then make a decision to carry on using it or not. The colour was a vibrant pink, I really hadn’t thought about that when I bought it, but applying it to my lips following another YouTube tutorial it almost immediately started to feel like it was working. It wasn’t painful but it was a little uncomfortable for maybe five minutes before it settled down, and although I couldn’t be totally sure, my lips did look slightly puffy compared to normal and a little fuller, but it was only a slight change and nothing drastic.

I applied the rest of my face make-up, keeping it simple as I wanted to draw more attention to the new outfit, before adding the fake lashed which went on much easier too. Next up were the stick on nails. They weren’t over the top. Barely much longer than my natural nails which had already grown out a bit, but they were more elegant with what I learnt was a French tip finish. As the glue dried I held them out and admired at my handy work. My reflection looked great, quite natural and not too over the top but I wanted to see if the lip gloss would do much more with another application so I smoothed on another layer, a little heavier than the last time and much the same as before I felt that tingle as I walked over to the kitchen to get myself a drink.

As I poured the glass of water I realised I couldn’t drink before the lip gloss had a chance to try.
