Thin Privilege is not having to paint on cheek bones The other day I was running late to work and sort of smeared on a bit of eyeliner and some mascara. When I get to work, I asked two of my coworkers (well, really just one but the ham one was there too) if my makeup looked okay because I rushed through it. The ham coworker responded "It looks fine and your contour looks pretty good today." I wasn't wearing face makeup. Just eye makeup. I don't even know how to contour. In fact, I have a pretty round shaped face and my cheekbones aren't even high. I'm slim though and don't have an extra five lbs of fat on my face. The look on her face when I told her I wasn't even wearing skin makeup was hilarious. Also, on a side note, I am in no way bashing the shitladies who use contouring techniques. In fact, I'm impressed by you all because I have no clue how to do it. It's pretty cool when you can artfully highlight your natural features and stuff and in your case you aren't doing it to give the illusion that you are slim.
