That brings us to today... When I pulled in my spot and reached over for makeup bag it wasn't there!!!! I panicked a bit but figured it had fallen into the back since we drove all over the place this weekend. At this point it was pouring but I checked both sides and the trunk, no luck. I considered my options and decided to suck it up and head into work. But first I pulled out my emergency stash of mascara and lipstick. When I got in I was happy to find a tiny leftover bit of powder in my desk drawer... Must have been saving it for a rainy day!
So not only was my face practically naked but the rain ruined my previously straightened hair. I don't think the beauty gods were on my side today!
As you can see I was a sad mess but I survived! No one even asked me why I looked so tired or anything... Makes me wonder why I even spend so much time every day!
Despite this enlightened experience I won't be dumping my makeup anytime soon!
What about you? Have you ever shown up to work missing something, with two different shoes, or maybe your shirt on inside out?
My daughter and I laugh about the time she went to work with no makeup and the owner kept asking if she felt bad, and did she need to go home. She didn't have an emergency mascara or lipstick!
ReplyDeleteI was SO surprised I didn't get any comments like that! Everyone should have emergency lipstick and mascara!!!
DeleteI always do my hair/make-up before leaving the house (& get dressed) because ya just never know who you might run into, but at least you made it through the day ;-)
ReplyDeleteYou don't get dressed in the parking lot of work, why ever not?!?! :)
DeleteSo did you find if?!
ReplyDeleteNo!!! I am like 99.9% positive someone took it from my car which is kind of gross because used makeup isn't very sanitary. I had to go buy all new stuff!
