No, I'm not going to play little miss perfect right now, really not. If you were to line up all my beauty blunders, I would never get back up. However, there are a few things that I absolutely hate and want to talk to you about.

Hairy brush

Quite a few girlfriends know that I really have a terrible aversion to this. Yuck. Because when I get such a dirty, unruly thing in my line of sight, I don't know how quickly I need to pluck all those hairs out. Even from strangers' brushes, yes (I can hear you thinking, but don't worry: I always carry disinfectant with me).

Chipped nail polish

Look, I really understand that we hard-working, social, and sporty women don't have time for a daily manicure. But please, take off your nail polish if there's less than a quarter left. It only takes a minute. Tip from Co: gel polish. It stays good for at least two to three weeks and definitely doesn't chip. Because as my grandma always said: “Your hands are your business card.”

Lipstick residue

Do it well or don't do it at all. Lipstick actually requires your continuous attention. First a base, lip liner, and then boom, the lipstick on. Doing this five times in one evening might be asking a bit much. Even worse: a red wine mouth mixing with lipstick residue resulting in a purplish wrinkled prune mouth. Not pretty, not flattering. A simple lip gloss is your remedy.

Foundation gone bad

Too brown foundation with such an incredibly white neck underneath. Ouch. I really can't choose the right color myself, you know. That's why there are those incredibly cheerful, overly made-up ladies who are eager to advise you. Just go for it, it's really better.

Unibrow

For men, stray hair growth might still be acceptable due to the beauty braces. No, actually not. But for women, wow, that's really the pinnacle of being unattractive for me. Now, I have caught myself in the beautiful daylight with a less than charming unibrow hair, but that applies to all of us: never leave home without your tweezers!

Pimples

Haha no, just kidding. Because you really can't do anything about that. I just get really annoyed by those two on my chin at the moment. Please leave me alone.
