That’s right, ladies. How much is your face, right at this moment, worth?
I’d like you to quickly add up the raw value of the products you used this morning. It doesn’t have to be perfect, feel free to guess (ie $20 instead of $18.50)! Go ahead and check sites like Sephora, Ulta, MAC, or drugstore.com if you have no idea!! Everything on your face – that includes primer, moisturizer, and toner, but not things like cleanser, which have been rinsed off. And we’ll pass on tools, because you could *theoretically* go without. (ew)
I’m itching to know just how much we really spend on our faces. And also cringing at how much it’ll probably end up to be.

When I take them all and add ’em up, I get…
I believe this is when I go… awww, hell naw!
(And I will assume that I have correctly utilized this phrase. It’s awkward for me and I do not plan on ever using it in real life but I have been led to think that this would be an appropriate time for it and there is no better phrase to suit the moment?)
