That And Only That

 

Bought this shampoo.
OK - I admit, it´s a so-called "dry shampoo".
You use it in 4 steps:
1: shake a few seconds to wake the magic
2: apply, 3: massage, 4: comb - as good as from a real shower.
 
Working from home: I admit... like other colleagues, too, I in these cold temps keep on my cozy PJs Mon night - Sat morno.
No one sees me, work-wise (Ingo does not mind, he understands), no total shower - good for the skin and purse!!! 
Grocery...I put over a jeans, other in these temps I stay home.
 
No idea why there are red lipsticks on the can.
 
But it reminded me of an hilarious story I´ll keep short:
 
Bro´s name was taken by mistake for a girl´s one, he got girly pressies, amongst a set of make-up he gave to me.
I ONCE tried it - with decent colors for a night out when I was... 18?
 
My car...
 
 
(pic from internet)
... an old, used one  ... refused to  start. That was a SIGN!!!
 
My Dad, as my ... for a reason EX-boyfriend back then´d lost his driver´s license due to drink-driving  .. Dad gave me our family car (EX had a car but lived 8 km away):
.
 
Yep, 18 years old, such a car (Dad taught me to drive "him" at age 14).

I felt like a clown anyways with that make-up and the only lipstick I wear is for care, colorless.
I took off the make-up before I hopped into the BMW.
BUT!!!! To all who love make-up... no prejudices from my  side, HAVE FUN!!!
 
As you can guess I... we, Ingo and I, love the colors red and green and with this I join Go Green again. 
 
Did your life change with being home so much, too?
Less laundry and all comes in handy, too...

Henry, this just shows your body-temps, don´t you worry!
 
To (red and) GREEN!

I don't wear makeup or nail polish. I would not use that shampoo. My friend Sally says you should only wash the parts of your body that has folds, like underarms, elbows, knees, etc. in winter. Somehow I just don't feel clean when I do only that every day. Colorful shampoo and colorful Henry.

Our bathroom has no door and it´s ccccccold, so I take a full shower in these stay-at-home-times not too often. Plus I read it´s better for the skin.
And I love the smell of cherries, like summer-days ๐Ÿ’

Shampoo is pretty much an irrelevant thing for me!

My name is Erika. said...

I rarely wear make up, unless I need to get dressed up. Even then, I don''t wear much. Maybe because I'm so gorgeous just as I am-ha-ha-ha. I like your drawing, and that's interesting about the shampoo. I dress pretty grungy when I'm home all day. Why not? It's comfy. I hope you're having a comfy and not busy day. hugs-Erika

I have never worn makeup-my parents didn't allow it growing up-and then I just never got into it-my skin is sensitive so it probably would have given me issues. cool cars you were driving You work long hours at home-so comfy is needed-hugs from the lake Kathy

Iris Flavia said...

Kathy, wow, never make-up? You are the only one I know :-)
Well that Opel was like a tractor! But the BMW was really cool.
Yes, I think some "ladies" at Siemens sat at home in a costume!
Good thing we are normal, hugs to the lake

I don't wear makeup either, I never liked the feeling of it on my skin. I did wear some for my wedding, but none since and I have natural colour in my face anyway, so don't really need makeup. I don't shower every day either, only when I need to wash my hair. Other days I use warm water with a tiny bit of soap in and wash my face, underarms, feet and the parts I sit down on. And the crease under the boobs where I get sweaty.

Iris Flavia said...

I would also be afraid I sit down, rest my face in my hand and the makeup sits up near my ear or such from that!!! Or you wish with your hands over the face... waaaay too dangerous!
I use sometimes Kajal and Mascara but that is absolutely it!

I love red lipstick and never go outside without it and even inside most days I put it on. It cheers me up.

Bill said...

Henry is experiencing a colourful moment. :)

Iris Flavia said...

RedPat, then you should use cherry shampoo :-)

Bill, he sure does! Heart warming :-)

I love your cherry pic. I remember the work-at-home days -- looking decent waist up and whatever below. Now I can be whatever wherever whenever!
