Makeup is for girls.

I've got a I.D. that expires shortly and it has to have my picture on it, I've also got three places on my nose that are only going to be getting bigger shortly when the real surgeries begin (see the Health forum).......anyway I figured I'd better go get the two passport size pictures done now.

One of the places is right on the tip of my nose and I didn't want to look like a real 'goober' in my I.D. picture so yesterday afternoon I started digging around in mama's makeup stuff for something to hide the spot and found some kind of liquid cover up stuff. I put a big drop on my finger and put it on the spot and now I have this big beige colored blob on the tip of my nose.....jeez.

So being the clever fella that I am I says to myself, "get some more and smear it all over your nose to blend it in"......I did and now I've got a really big totally beige nose that doesn't even come close to the color of the rest of my face......jeez again.

I tried lightly wiping it with tissues to lighten it but this stuff doesn't want to come off easily. So being clever then I put some rubbing alcohol on the tissue to get some of it off (forgetting about the wound underneath) and immediately my nose started burning like hell but at least it did thin the beige a little and figured it would be passable for a picture....and it was.

Guys I'm here to tell ya, leave the makeup wearing to the girls !.

Oh, just because I wore some makeup yesterday that doesn't make me......well you know does it ?
 

I guess you're right Shali, being 6 ft. 5" tall and 245 lbs with a big beige nose what guy in his right mind would want to hit on me anyway. :D

Probably some guy who is 6'6" and 250 lbs ...

My first introduction to make-up was in college theater where I had to wear what they call "pancake" make-up (because under anything but theatrical lighting you look like a short stack of pancakes).

I had no idea how to put the stuff on and of course I waited until opening night to experiment. I was supposed to be playing Iago in Shakespeare's Othello but I ended up looking like Sparkles the Streetwalker. :(

Live and learn ... glad it worked out for you, Ike.
 
That's just fine Ralphy, we need to get together and swap makeup tips.......I really like what you've done to your hair also.
 
They really prefer the white ones and I don't know why. Perhaps to go with my white manties, I suppose...
 
I had a hairdresser for years who was also a performing female impersonator. He was constantly going on and on about how nobody had any idea he was a guy when he was in drag. So finally, I accepted his invitation to come to one of his performances. Okaaaay. All I can say is that I want whatever kind of mirror he was looking in. Maybe it would convince me that I looked like Taylor Swift.

Once he mentioned that he and some friends were going to drag up and go to a big country-and-western dance hall that we had here in town and "meet some cowboys". I tried to explain that the cowboys (and we did have some of them from the big ranches down in Osceola County) would take him out to the parking lot and stomp him into a large grease spot with their pointy-toe boots. The rednecks around there were NOT inclined to find being flirted with by drag queens amusing. Apparently, he took my advice because he was still alive when I saw him next.

Great guy, wonderful hairdresser, good friend, but definitely delusional about his ability to "pass"...
