Dumbest question ever... Options

[x3chrissyx3]

So, after I applied my make-up, I happened to lean over the counter top in my bathroom to examine my make-up a little more closely in my mirror. When I did that, my make-up looked a little cakey, but whenever I stand you know at normal distance, it doesn't at all. EVer since that happened I've been paranoid that it looks cakey to other people if it looks that way when I stand close to the mirror. Okay, I know I'm weird because I stood *that* close to the mirror, and no one does that, but is it normal for it to look like that when you stand close to the mirror?

I know I'm the most ridiculous person ever.

Makeup is cakey. If it bugs you that much, then do your makeup while you're that close the the mirror, and do it as best you can. But you should really only worry about how it looks at the distance people usually stand from you.

If you wanna be really technical, you could factor in your vision to try and figure out what you would look like to other people. For instance, I have 20/10 vision which is twice as good as average vision (20/20). Which means that if I stand twice as far away from the mirror as I usually stand away from people, that's how they see me. I don't know if that makes sense, but that's what I do.
