G’day mates! So, picture this: I thought I’d give using food as makeup a fair dinkum go. Yeah, you heard me right! I decided to chuck out my fancy cosmetics and embrace the true blue Aussie spirit by slapping some good ol’ tucker on my face. Let’s just say it turned into an absolute shemozzle.
The Great Vegemite Debacle
I started off with a brilliant idea – why not use Vegemite as foundation? After all, it’s dark and sticky like a proper foundation should be. But crikey, was that a mistake! As soon as I smeared it on my face, I ended up looking like an overcooked snag from the barbie. Not exactly the glamorous look I was going for!
The Avocado Catastrophe
Next up on my list of beauty hacks was using avocado as blush. Fair dinkum, who needs expensive pink powder when you can just mush up some avo? Well, let me tell ya mate, that green goo did nothing but make me resemble Shrek’s long-lost cousin. My cheeks were more vibrant than Uluru at sunset – in all the wrong ways!
The Chocolate Lipstick Fiasco
Thinking outside the box (or should I say jar), I decided to create my own lipstick using melted chocolate. Seemed like a bonza idea at first – tasty AND fashionable! But once again, reality slapped me harder than a kangaroo kick. The moment that choccy hit my lips, it melted faster than ice cream on Bondi Beach in summer heat. Talk about messy! Plus, attracting flies became an unexpected side effect.
In Conclusion, Beauty is Best Left to the Professionals
After my little experiment with food-based makeup, I’ve come to a fair dinkum realization – leave it to the experts. While using food as makeup may seem like a ripper idea in theory, trust me when I say it’s nothing but a recipe for disaster. Stick to your true blue beauty products and let the pros work their magic. Otherwise, you might just end up looking like an absolute drongo!
