Lynn's Comments: When I was young, I had a friend whose mom, an Avon rep., would give us her old samples. We'd stay in the bathroom for hours, painting each other up with makeup. When my mom caught us, she said that makeup was fine as long as she couldn't tell I was wearing it. This led to some very artistic application and fun knowing I was getting away with it.

Lynn's Comments: I couldn't have drawn panel 2 if I hadn't felt the pain. Drawing images like this was (and is) an effective form of psychotherapy for me.
Lynn's Comments: In a situation like this, I'd find a way to have half an hour to myself so I could stand in a hot shower and pray for relief. This is the one time when a "let down" is a very positive thing!
