My Interview Face

I had a job interview today, obviously part of the getting ready ritual involved deciding what make up would be appropriate. I was going for professional without being too dour.

I took these pictures once I had returned. It was at that point that I realised I was actually sporting a Berlin Wall mini fringe. I thought I had tamed it before I went out but it seems to have been very stubborn.

I'm very pleased to say that I got a call back this afternoon and I got the job! It's only casual work but I'm excited all the same. Thanks to Secret Desire and Rue de Passy for the parts they played!

  3. Hi Sarah! I know, it looks like butter wouldn't melt but we know different ;). Thank you so much for adding me lovely lady, I feel very honoured.

    Hi Nicoletta, thank you. I'm sure it's going to be strange going back to work but as it's quite casual, I think it should be an good way to ease myself back in.

    Thanks PeachBellini!

  5. Oh, that's great, congratulations!
    How do you like the Secret Camouflage? I thought I would like it more than I actually do, so I'm still searching for *the* concealer.

  14. @Ms. Wedgie: Thank you. No doubt the hairstyle made me look “Down with the kids”! ;)

    @Klara: Thank you! Oddly enough I like the colour match of SC best of all. It is a little dry in consistency and definitely not *the one* for me either. The search goes on!

    @Lipstick Luvvie: Thank you. My interview skills were very rusty too but I did some reading up before hand to help calm my nerves. I had a few answers to questions prepared in advance. I hope it goes well for you in Jan :)

    @Meeta: Thank you. It’s the Film Noir again, it really needs replacing now but I desperately eeking it out!

    @Replica: Thank you, it will be nice to have something of my own and be a grown up for a bit. I do like Rue de Passy, despite me moans it’s a palette I reach for often for a soft look. I’ve seen the spring collection and think the blusher looks lovely. The quad is pretty but I’m not sure I could use the colours. No doubt I’ll change my mind when the time comes ;)

    @Makeup Magpie: Thank you, glad you like the colours.

    @dempss01: What a lovely thing to say *blush*. Mostly I struggle with putting colours together but I feel I’m getting better with practice. I need to start practicing my “pens down” lines too!

    @Simone: Thank you :)

    @Nina: Aw, thank you. Thank you for the support too, I did as I was told and made sure I went to bed early :). How’s the writing going?

    @Tina: Thank you. The make up definitely made me feel more confident on the day. Despite my nerves, I managed to re-apply lippie before going in for my interview ;)

    Thanks for the lovely comments, you’re all so kind,
    Jane x
