Sali Hughes #66 The Girl with the Pigeon Tattoo

[HotesTilaire]

Oh! November has officially been renamed the “cyber period” - thanks Sali!

we call it Black Friday month, but robot menstruation month sound ok.

The trackie and teef are front and centre stage again and the glare from the ring light makes it look like her eyes are rolling into the back of her head. Looks like she's about to start speaking in tongues.

She's holding those products the way my dog holds her dentastix. Except less cute. And more raggedy haired.

Was just about to post same! So many comments saying “OMG your eyes are amazing” “what do you use on your eyes” ….. errrr that would be a ring light

 

[OldTT]

Is it the ring light that has erased her pupils?

 

[ThisIsMyDragName]

It does look like a pair of those novelty contact lenses you foolishly buy as a teenager for Halloween. Purely from the ring light. Her actual eye colour is very nice!

Sali's just channelling her inner whitewalker

Run, don't walk, to read Grazia.
Sali has written an article all about.....red lipstick.
Honestly doesn't she ever get bored writing about it?

What a lot of waffle. She used "scene-stealing" in two consecutive paragraphs. We get it, we get it. Calm down

 

[SqualorVictoria]

It’s so boring I can barely find the energy to snark on it. Everything in it we’ve heard from Sali before such as the nonsense about red lipstick making every outfit more evening appropriate and patronising guff about how even women with no ‘skill’ in makeup can pull it off

 

[melfish]

The hyperbole! Men hate it, and women fear it

Me, I don't give it a moment's thought. Seriously spend less than 0.001% of my life thinking about makeup

 

[SqualorVictoria]

I love this line: Parliament once even banned red lipstick because of its perceived powers of wanton seduction

But I thought men hated it and the Suffragettes wore it to antagonise them?

 

[melfish]

She might have fact-checked that myth #journalist

No, British Parliament didn’t institute a lipstick ban in 17

A curious "fun fact" about the 1770s, Britian and lipstick went viral on social media. The Facebook post making the roun

I wanna know who came up with that load of guff about it looking good on an otherwise bare face. If you're an 18 year old supermodel it might. On everyone else that just looks weird, unflattering and startling.

Honestly no makeup at all is better than red lipstick with no other makeup. Someone l can’t remember who wore red lipstick on a bare face to the Oscars or some other kind of red carpet and it looked so odd

Bare face + a 1,000,000 watt ring light maybe

This is almost as bad as the claim that women liberated from concentration camps wanted lipstick before anything else. She here is so bleeping shallow in her earnestness to prove silly points.

I think it was Uma Thurman, and if she can’t pull it off, what hope do normal people have?

So true. I think it's an urban myth that there was someone once who carried it off.

I do feel sorry for Uma's make up artist there, her blush, brows and hairline contour are doing a helluva lot of heavy lifting to try and balance the lips, and even that red(ish) colour looks like it's been blended from a hundred lipsticks.

I once followed that stupid red lips and bare face advice as a teenager and I can still hear the peals of laughter after I'd passed another group of teenagers from my school. And that was over 30 years ago

What a crap article in Grazia.
Wearing red lipstick isn't a personality trait. There are millions of women out there who are just a courageous, ballsy, unafraid, confident, etc. without wearing red lipstick. Wear it if you like it, that's all.
