The Natural Hilliary?

According to the latest news flash Hilliary Clinton is going without makeup and doesn't give a damn what others thinks.  Good for her, she has more guts than I do.

The real deal

A nice headband, not plastic

This morning I watched Hilliary  on the CBS Early Show. She was sporting glasses, no foundation or eye makeup.  She did keep  the cardinal rule (according of Evie)  in check: LIPSTICK. Which means she  isn't exactly au naturale.  Thank goodness we all have limits.  The close up photography on our HD 42" screen did a marvelous job of exposing the imperfections on her skin.  Hooray, she is  like the rest of us.

I have mixed feelings.




Hilliary goes back to those goofy headbands,  not the kind like we wore in grade school with sharp little teeth fixed inside a plastic crescent, which by the  end of the day a sure-fired itchy headache belonged to you, the wearer.  She was  running as a potential first lady with a headband???  Come on.  Once again, nobody stood at the doorway and said, "Okay missy, where do you think your going with that on your head ?"

She  is now comfortable with who she is and where she's at in her life.   "Let someone else worry about what I look like."  Makeup unnecessary?Eh Gads, I hope I never get that comfortable.  I look like a three day old cadaver without "my face," on (more Evieesse).  Eyebrows, blush, mascara and lipstick, they all put me in my comfort zone and the rest of the world,  who sadly would  suffer if I were not to paint  the canvas I call my face.

But now on the flip side of  facial commando, what about Michelle Bachmann?  She wore false eyelashes and often really really long ones.  What would she look  like without her Bare Escentuals?  I couldn't help wonder, as she graced the screen back when everybody and their brother wanted to be president,  how many lonely hearts  in TV land developed a crush on her with her  stunning beauty?  Sarah Pallin, she was no slouch either, that is until she opened her mouth.  This could lead to reckless, irresponsible voting.   Do we want high maintenance in the White House?    The question posed this morning, and this is not verbatim:  Do we want  political women to go red carpet on us?

I liked the comment about being "put together and looking appropriate." Fix the flaws you have, in the best way you know how and hope for the best.  Straight from the mouth of Evie, God rest her soul!
