Did They Think I Wouldn’t Notice?
This Friday kicks off a week of birthday celebrations in the Beauty Marked!® household. We have three birthdays within the next seven days. So in efforts to pick up a few last minute clothing bits and bobs for the wee ones welcoming in a new year of life, I ran into my local Target store, as you do. Low and behold, I was hit by several large photographic murals of smiling kids either cuddling up to the Target logo like it was the most cherished of teddy bears or the coolest toy ever, along a couple of the main outer walls. At first glance, the images were cute, quasi-benign, and perhaps a little cheeky, but on second look…*my eyes bug out*…Outrageous! The little girls, we’re talking maybe 6 or 7 years old, were wearing more makeup than I do, even on my full face days! Uber glossy, nearly dripping cherry red lips, cheeks sporting the flush of a fallen angel, and eyelashes complete with lashings of the inkiest mascara. And yes, I saw you too, smudgy eyeliner, along the lower lashline! My goodness, what is this world coming too? You’ve got to go and check it out and tell me if you noticed it too. For once in my life, I’ll be glad to learn that I’ve just imagined it. I suspect though, that it wasn’t me, this time, that has lost her mind. So wrong.
