Question:
If I were Minister for Beauty....
One for Friday afternoon
"If I were Minister for Beauty, the laws I would pass would be....."
1. All cosmetic companies must sell trial sizes of all foundations at a reasonable cost (it would save me a fortune:rolleyes: )
2. Mascara adverts must show a model wearing the mascara, not computer enhanced lashes that go up to her eyebrows.
3. Lipliners must be made in more colours, so there's a chance of finding one to match something besides dark plum lipstick!
Your turn......

I'd agree with No. 2 but extend it to:
2. Cosmetic companies must, in their advertising, show models wearing their makeup with NO COMPUTER ENHANCEMENTS WHATSOEVER. (This would soon sort out who's who in the cosmetic business :lol: )
I'd also extend No. 1 to:
1. Cosmetic companies must sell trial sizes of foundation, concealer, blusher/bronzer and lipstick at reasonable prices.
My new rules would be:
4. No testing on animals. For anybody, not just the Body Shop.
5. Perfumes should be sold as two-packs, with a large(ish) bottle as per usual PLUS a here-sized atomiser's worth!
6. Similarly to rule number one, skincare companies must sell small trial pots of moisturiser/eye cream etc.
That's all I can think of at the moment... :o
YES YES YES to number 5
7. I would insist that make up companies find a better solution to orange palm syndrome, of fake tanning fame!!!
8. Make up should never go above 20 pounds an item!
All brands should be available EVERYWHERE! (No Becca, Shu Uemura in our city)
- No company should be allowed to claim something works when it blantantly doesn't.
- No company should be allowed to charge high-end prices for rubbish cosmetics.
- No animal testing or calling your product 'natural' when it contains about 0.01% natural extract.
- Snooty SA's should be discliplined or made to sit in the naughty corner.
Agree about the testers too! Great idea!
