Not even 24 hours later, the answer to yesterday’s blog came to me. Why do we love makeup? The same reason we acquire men (or women)… or anything else we get for that matter, only to realize it isn’t right for us until it’s too late.

Sure, the “substance” might be nice, but that’s not why we want it. My sophomore year graphic design teacher had it right when she said, “Packaging is EVERYTHING”. And more than Mel Gibson, telepathy or not, makeup manufacturers certainly know what women want… Case in point below. Keep in mind that one side is the the makeup and one side is another product women (or the little girl within them) love.

Chicks dig chocolate:

A guilty pleasure that DOESN’T make me fat? I’ll take twelve!

Others of us are addicted to our electronics:

Obviously, it’s no mistake that a makeup AND a computer both bear the name “MAC”

Finally (and the worst), they go all the way back to my childhood with this one and jump start the sixth grade glee center of my brain:

How…could they?.

That being said, I now intend to buy all three palettes. In fact, this entry is really cutting into my quality time with Lady Sephora.
