I'm meeting someone for a drink later and didn't have time to get my eyebrows threaded yesterday. So I've just spent a challenging half hour trying to pluck them myself in the bath. I can't see if I lose the specs, and I can't get to the eyebrows if I don't!
I like my specs though and still not tempted to contacts yet.
Any other four eyed issues you have? Or are you a frame fan? |

I have a magnifying mirror with a light around the outside which I use when I dont have chance to get them done... which is frequently. Have you thought of mictoblading? |

Blind as a bat without my glasses
I do wear contacts, but quite rare
Putting make up on is a real challenge.
I keep it to a very bare minimum.
The amount of times I've gone for the 'smokey eye' look, only to put my glasses back on & realise I look more like Coco the clown!
And don't get my started on how often I poke myself straight in the eye with the mascara brush |

I had a magnifying mirror balancing too! That was adding to the difficulty . My best friend does microblading but I'm good with just getting threaded generally, just a nuisance when I don't find the time! |

It's sexy huh ?!
I've given up on a smokey eye but I can do an eyeliner flick blind now after years of practice! |

Waxed and tinted every month for me. Don’t touch them myself. |

I know I'm probably going to regret this for months! But I wasn't cancelling tonight |

I feel your pain, OP. I’m so blind I couldn’t even attempt to pluck my own brows.
I love wearing glasses though, which is handy, they don’t make contacts strong enough for my left eye.
Four eyes are better than two |

I got contacts, under duress, for a wedding recently. But I just don't look like me without the glasses! I just ordered new cats eye ones yesterday too which I'm pretty excited about getting |

Use the mirror in your car; it has a magnifier on it plus the natural light shows you everything. I can do this with my glasses on as both hands are free.

I've given up on eye makeup altogether. Not so much a coco the clown look I get when I try it, I end up with mascara and eye shadow smeared all over my face and look like I just came out of a coal mine. |

Genius! "
It is! I don't drive though so if anyone wants to loan me their car for grooming purposes that'd be great |

"I've had corrective surgery on my eyes but still wear glasses and after wearing them for 53 years, they are my comfort blanket."
That is exactly what they are. Love big prescription sunglasses especially, for feeling cosy and invisible! |

"I put my face right up to the mirror so I can see myself properly, and usually end up with mascara all over the mirror as well as my hair and hands. "
I'm tempted to just leave them off on days like that so everyone else has to suffer looking at me but I'm blissfully unaware ! |

"Heres a secret for you. No guy will ever judge you on your eyebrows. Thats just something women do to each other
I think most women know, and don't care. "
It does seem that way |

It is funny that men think we do all this stuff for them though. Bless! |

Why else would straight women do these kind of things? |

For themselves usually. Not for other people. Mind-blowing isn't it |

I've never encountered anyone that has looked more or less attractive with or without glasses. It's just a different look.
I quite like how a well chosen pair can frame a person's face and accentuate the eyes though.
