Cathy is lucky she has such
Cathy is lucky she has such a good complexion that she can look nice with a minimum of make-up. It is interesting that as I have spent more time as myself, I find that I care less for warpaint as well, liking a more natural look. But then I'm not on the prowl like some either, and being me completely I feel less like needing the camo.
Good chapter, and does give a bit more insight into Cathy from a different perspective. Poor Morag may think her efforts weren't appreciated though, if she sees Cathy now.

My God!
She's just had a makeover to end all makeovers and then she washes it off without once having gone anywhere decent to show it off.
The girl's mad I tell you maa-aad.
That would break my heart! (Must be the tranny side in me but the transexual parts would savour it as well. I know they would... They just would!)
Am I missing something here?
Lovin' it Angie. Just lovin' it.
Hugs.

Like how Cathy made sure that she was not fawned over.

Salon treatment sounded good
but understand Cathy deciding to remove makeup. Don't like morbid thoughts like what if little Catherine loses another mother. Glad Simon didn't make a fus about the makeup. Also wish they'd taken a picture.
Interesting comment...
Interesting comment on many things - makeup/nails/etc. I found it fascinating. My older daughter does the "war paint" big time (not that you can really notice, as she does a good job) when going "out"... I tend to just use concealer, maybe some mascara & maybe some eye liner... 25 years ago, I was doing a lot more. eye shadow/lippy/blush. Hmmm. Something to think about. (Why the concealer, you may ask... Okay, you may not ask, but I'll tell you anyway. LOL. I have some large vitalaigo patches on my face... *sighs* I wear the concealer even in guy mode - as it significantly reduces the number of times I have to "explain" the round "albino" patches...)
But, back to the story... I think Simon was right, they should have gotten a photo of the "painted lady"... Before it was removed. If for no reason than "historical"... 20 years from now, the kids would like to see mummy all made up. :-)
Hmmm. I don't want to think of the number of words written on this saga, if we went another 20 years! (Not that many would mind reading though... LOL It's been a lot of "fun".)
Thanks,

Make over at Southern Comfort.
In a moment of weakness a couple years ago, I had a make over done at Southern Comfort. I will say that I looked quite nice. It felt really odd and naughty to show up at the Hotel in full Hijab, go to my room and doff all that, do the next few days and then go back to the desk again properly covered the day I left. LOL Makeup is totally forbidden for me, but it felt nice to um let my hair down for a few days.
Much peace

not a big fan of warpaint either
I am by no means a beauty without warpaint either but I do not need it either. I figure that it is okay for special occasions to use it but everyday life, not so much On top of that there is the cost of the stuff and if you figure you are paying the equivalent of about 40 dollars per ounce of mascara in the US, makeup is pricey and has to be replaced regularly for hygienic reasons.

It's a pity...
...that Cathy dozed during her treatment at the beauty salon.
If she'd listened to the stylist, Cathy could have used Morag's accent as a template for her own portrayal of Lady Macbeth.
Thanks A+B: nice to see the way you're building up the tension as we wait for the meeting/meal with the stars.

Must be nice
to stay in an hotel your father-in-law owns and go and enjoy the beauty treatment Cathy had, And it also helps that you do not have to pay the bill, Otherwise it would have been an expensive way to find out what the rest of us always suspected, Makeup in some cases is not always neccesary, And if Cathy feels good without it ...So much the better

make-up
Kathy needs to learn one fashion mantra that everyone else seems to learn @ birth - There's a time & place for everything.
Warpaint is demanded by those of us to conceal what we dont want others to see and hi-lite what we want them looking at. PERIOD.
and I agree with the others comments that Kathy must have one hell of a good complexion to get by on minimalist @ time of her age. Then again I keep forgetting she's like under 30 or barely over it.. Wait till she hits 'ole fogey' stage where I am. I can get by with less than some, but, I know when to "ramp up the volume" and when not to. Just as in clothes wearing ... that outfit as I can envision it being - screams the girl wearing it should also pull out stops when wearing... if not for herself then for Simon. He for everything good or bad...does deserve a treat once in awhille ... kathy is so self-depreciating of her self that at times I just wanna take a frying pan & rattle a few brain cells to see if it would knocks some sense into her. I'm guessing her reasoning is she decideds she not going to bother ""competing"" with the model ...and I agree that's honorable. But, on the other hand , she's so self absorbed, that she ALSO fails to realize that this one of those occations, her & Simon get "ADULT" time, and for that simple reason alone...the WAR PAINT should of stayed on, and gone out and ENJOYED the evening with her Husband.
Shame on her.
ok - I get off my soapbox
Depends on what she was after,
she got to see the final results. She can get it done again if she wants.
I've never really learned to use makeup. I did in the early days of my transition, then dropped it.
Hope Morag doesn't see Cathy
Hope Morag doesn't see Cathy with her face washed, she'll think Lady C hated it.
