I have a fun book. It’s called The Book of the Bizarre: Freaky Facts and Strange Stories by Varla Ventura. I found some fun, freaky facts about makeup that I thought I’d share with you, since I know you are all fun and freaky too. Here’s what I learned:

“The ancients wore eye shadow to prevent blindness, strengthen eyesight, and offer protection. Meanwhile, eyeliner was said to keep out evil, and lipstick, to guard against evil spirits and poisonous foods, and to keep the soul from leaving the body through the breath.”

So weird. Because those are the exact reasons I wear makeup too.
