Is there such a thing as beauty when you're sick? I have had a cold/flu for the past couple of days and during that time I have been avoiding mirrors like the plague. I look tired, disheveled, my nose is red, I even think my face looks bloated. It's not bad enough that my sinuses are so congested that I can't breathe properly, I also can't stand to look at myself.
The weird thing is that when you're sick you really can't be bothered to worry too much about how your hair looks or if your face is washed. And makeup? Ha. Not even in the realm of possibility. I don't like the fact that I look bad, but I don't care enough to do anything about it. It would take too much energy. It's a good thing I don't have to leave the house.
I wonder if anyone looks good when they are ill. It's hard to imagine. I think plenty of people look good without makeup. But sick and no makeup? Impossible to look normal.
If anyone ou there actually looks good when they are sick I DARE YOU to post a picture of it up on this site.
till then,
