We Are NOT COOL Anymore, Michelle Tanner.

Going to Wal-Mart is Dangerous (notice the capital D). I go there for shampoo - I leave with $50 worth of crap. It's inevitable. Wal-Mart has a lot of make-up brands that aren't sold anywhere else, so I always take a trip down that aisle to see what they got. Being the bargain hunter that I am - I always look for the cheap crap that looks cool... but obviouisly, I never expect too much. If I end up with something I really like - awesome. If not - $2 isn't a huge loss.

So Mary Kate & Ashley. I was singing your praises for the blush wipe things but this time... we have a problem.

Now don't ask me why I'm buying eyeliner from two people who constantly look like they let a 4 year old trace their eyes with the stuff.. but I did:


They give me a zombie/raccoon vibe.
Where are you Michelle Tanner? Come back.

So I'm doing my makeup this morning, minding my own, and it comes time for the eyeliner. Typically - I have been religious with the eye marker's from E.L.F. but today, I don't know - I felt like spicing shit up. So I picked up the goddamn MK&A pencil and started going to town. Typically (unlike zombieland up there), I take it easy with the liner and just do a little on the edges & some along my lash line just for definition. Today, I got a little bit wild and crazy and replaced the white (which I normally use) on my waterline with the black manufactured by Danny Tanner's daughter(s). I finished up the job and went to get my lip primer and what happens?

EYES FEEL LIKE I HAVE DUMPED SULFURIC ACID INTO THEM.

And you know how there's NEVER anything decent around to blot your profusely watering eyeballs with? Yeah, me freaking too. I have my scarves hanging next to my makeup stand but I was picturing lint balls in my eyelashes, giant black marks all over them, etc... Bad news. So i grabbed a freakin makeup sponge and started blotting my life away. And at that point ... there was black shit all over my face :o) Nothing like doing your makeup and then having an eyeball waterfall ruin your hard work.

So thanks, bitches. From this point on, I'm staying away from your painful ass makeup if it has anything to do with my eyes. I'll give you the blush sheets - but that's all you're getting. And I'm serious. We may have been close friends back in the 90's, Michelle, but it's the new millenium. And you do NOT got it, dude.

OUCH!!

Try the Hard Candy at WM next - much better (in my opinion).

And one of my other bloggies just recommended the Hard Candy liqiud liner - she says hers is better than MAC!

Kell said...

You make me laugh so hard!

Ps...I'm totally the girl who is using her scarf to wipe her eyeballs. Lazy like that.

OceanDreams said...

OH man that sucks, at least you were able to get it off with much effort, eye makeup is doomed sometimes, I swear.

Lil' Woman said...

Thats probably why they have raccoon eyes...because their eyes water and bleed from there products

Live, Laugh, Love said...

lmao "somebody dumped sulfuric acid into them". I've only ever tried their lip balm, which was kinda sticky. ...Ntways,Just dropping by.

~Lisa said...

Ugh! Horrible! Hope you're alright!!

April said...

This just made my eyes water. Thanks for the heads up! Memo to self: do not buy Michlle Tanner stuff..

KAC said...

That exact same thing happened to me except I was using Nars instead of MK +A haha. Omg it was SO painful though hope your eyes are better!

short southern momma said...

Mascara does that to my eyes....maybe I am using the cheap stuff {its been so long since I have even worn it that I cant even remember the name} but I will for sure stay way from the "Tanners"! Hope you have a great weekend! xoxo

Karen said...

Oh gosh Kell, you're sooo funny but I feel bad for you too! Thanks for the heads up the MK & Ashley eye liner - oh I'm definitely staying away LOL. Totally hate it when like your makeup is all ruined after all that work and then if your eyes are watering it's hard to put makeup back on after.
Yah I remember a previous coworker of mine told me she thought MK & A had a "monkey" look to them LOL. I'm not sure about that but...yah I'm not crazy about their look for some reason - maybe it's the heavy eyeliner, maybe they need a sandwich or something..idunno!
