Um... I would say EYECOlOUR. I have lighter eyes for a Chinese girl, they are light brown with a bit of red? Not dark brown like most asians so I always get asked if I'm wearing contacts.

I go through the same thing. I'm an NC40 & people always say they want my want to be my color. Whether they are NC20 or NW45. I am always like "Thanks, but we need to find you a foundation that is *your* color so it looks natural." Some people really do think that they can just become whatever color they want by picking a certain foundation LOL!

People really think there is just 1 miracle product that will give them my look. Or there are the 40+ ladies who come in smelling like walking ashtrays & looking like they spent their entire lives in the sun wanting to know what foundation I use. Then I put it on them & they have the nerve to say "Well, mine doesn't look as good as yours!" Honey, if there was a foundation that would make your super damaged skin look perfect then cosmetic surgeons would all be out of business!


You said it sister! It is amazing how people think that it happens with one product!

I'm not a MUA, but I always get asked if I'm one because of my eye makeup, and compliments on it (which makes me VERY happy, and confident that I could one day do it!). And people say I have flawless skin (not quite!) so that's very nice.

Of course when I tell them you have to religiously apply sunscreen on the daily, they don't want to do that...

well, beacuse advertisement tells them so. call now to buy this superduperallinoneproduct and all your problems will magically disappear, a large amount of money will show up along with ageless beauty and a prince riding on a horse. for only 99.99$!

last week a customer asked me for a soap, that would cleanse, moisturize, scrub and leave a lovely scent on the skin. im sorry, ma´am, but we do not offer miracles here.

i got asked for my hair pretty often, but after my new haircut i still have to figure out how to look good like before. i mean, my face looks better now, but my hair is out of the focus...

My eyebrows. Always! But no one likes it when I tell them it took years of plucking to get the shape right. An instant result is what people are after!

Lashes too and eye liner. I tell them Its actually just Diorshow giving the illusion of a perfect line of eyeliner. No one believes that either.

Lastly is skin. People inquire as to how I keep my skin smooth and blemish free and the answer is....... soap actually! I have an appalling skin care routine and I'm actually glad people think I'm lying when I say Palmolive hand wash is my choice of facial cleanser

I've never worked at a makeup counter, before, but I get asked quite regularly about my eyeshadow. I like to wear jewel-tone purples from NYX and Milani, they make the green in my hazel eyes really pop! It's very amusing and quite flattering to me.

I have very long strawberry-blond hair (used to be a light blond, but as I'm getting older my hair is getting darker

). My hair reaches to the back of my knees, no joke. I get stopped ALOT and asked about what shampoos/conditioners I use, when the last time was that I cut my hair, IF I'll ever cut my hair, how I use the toilet without dirtying my hair, or if I sit on my hair alot, as well as 'how' I wash my hair, etc.
-every time I get stopped my fiancee rolls his eyes. He's gotten used to it and is very patient if not continually amused. It's always the same battery of questions, never anything new.

Otherwise, that's it for me.

I just get asked how I stay so pale/why I'm so pale/why don't I tan.
And I also get asked why I don't dye my hair (I've discovered that in Ireland having red hair is a bad thing.)
I get told to eat more also.
Sometimes I get asked about my eye makeup.

So nothing positive really ;/
