makeup!

now lets NOT get into the whole hijab-makeup debate. if you wear makeup outside the home, inside the home, in your fridge, at the golf course... i dont really care. make your own mind up as to what you see as modest.

i just dont want the same person writing a forty paragraph comment about how 'haram' it is to wear a coat of mascara or clear lipgloss outside of the home, or how 'its a mockery of hijab'.

*rolls eyes*

lets just enjoy it for what it is and make your own decision about whats right for YOU, meaning make your own decision as to whether you create looks for your hubby and girls only, or whether you take a toned down version onto the streets.

makeup time!
