Hateya poked her head in the store, wondering if they even let kids in here. When there wasn't an immediate shout to get out, she shuffle-hopped inside and wandered around. Almost immediately, her eyes were drawn to the makeup counter. More specifically, they were drawn to the bottles, jars, and other things that said sample on them. She was quick to dump her bag of assorted school stuff on the floor beside the stool and pull herself up, kneeling on it as she took in all the samples before her. This would be just like playing with her mum's stuff, only without the guilt or grounding. How fun. |
Luna had picked out a set of make up so went to the counter to pay |
Virgo went to her favorite part of the store, the makeup counter. Her list was endless so she took whatever she could find. A pink, silver and gold eyeshadow; Rose 1 and Natural 2 blush; Rose 2 lipstick 1 black eyeliner and mascara tube. Now she's all packed and ready for the counter. |
Walking over to the counter Emily looked over the blushers, lip glosses, eye shadows and mascaras. There were looooooads! "Wow Nika. Have you ever seen so much make-up in one place before?!" Not that she cared for it. She was just looking for a present for her sister... and mabye some lip gloss for herself. |
Sierra had never been too much of a makeup girl, but then again, she'd just turned twelve-years-old. She hadn't even had much time to think about wearing makeup yet, let alone actually experiment with it. It was times like this, though, when she realized that living with just her father may hinder her in a few ways. Who would teach her to wear makeup? Who would show her how to style her hair? Sure, she's visit her mother and older sister from time to time, but even then the visits would be few and far between. Maybe some of the girls in the common room would help her out. Hmm... She hated admitting failure, though, so it wasn't likely she'd even ask them. She sighed as she approached the counter and looked at the various tubes and bottles. |

"Hi." Good way to start a conversation, right? Hateya slid her legs out from under her, sitting on the stool properly instead of kneeling on it, "Browsing?" |

When she turned completely toward the girl, the first thing she saw was her bright orange lips. Sierra's eyes sort of widened as she made a mental not to never ask this one for beauty advice. Merlin! "Browsing? No, I'm eating," Sierra sarcastically thought to herself. This one didn't get the Ravenclaw gene, that was for sure. Nevertheless, she tried to put on her best 'polite face' for this stranger. "Browsing, yes," she replied. "...and I take it you're...experimenting?" |
Quote:
"I am." Hateya reached for a eyeliner pencil, but thought better of it, her hands switching instead to a container of blush, "I can't really do this at home, and no one's yelled at me yet, so why not? They're called samples for a reason." Besides, she didn't really care if people stared at her when she was finished. That was what washrooms and towels were for. |

"Oh! Oh Nika, this is soooo your colour!" she cried picking up some red eye shadow. 'Tester' perfect! "Come here..." Emily laughed pushing Nika onto a stool and opening the tester. It would match her hair! :lol: |
OOPSIE sorry I forgot that we moved it here! Quote:

Shrugging, Sierra turned to browse through some of the unused makeup. "So why can't you do this at home?" she asked, feeling the need for small talk for some reason. Possibly it was because she knew next to nothing about makeup and was just looking for a distraction while she browsed. |
Quote:
She watched the girl looking through the other makeup and suggested, "You should try the eye pencil. I was afraid I'd poke myself in the eye, but I'm sure if I saw someone else do it I'd learn how." |
Quote:
She opened it up then slowly started to dab in onto Nika's eyelids. Not to much so it was really red, but just light enough to give it a mysterious and smokey quality. "There..." she added putting the eye shadow down and grabbing some blusher. Another tester! Yey! She brushed it on her cheeks and smiled at her work. "Done! You can look in the mirror now!" and she better like it :shifty: |

Her eyes traveled to the eye pencil for a split second, and then upon deciding it was silly to experiment with makeup in this way, she rolled her eyes again. "No, thanks," she remarked. If watching this girl was any indication as to how she'd look if she even attempted experimenting right now, she didn't even want to touch that eye pencil. "How...old are you? ...are you a Hogwarts student?" she finally asked. |
Quote:
"Me?" she hadn't expected that. Damn it karma! "Um, alright." she said taking a stool and brushing the hair out of her eyes. "Make me look like a princess!" she added laughing and spinning on the stool. As long as she didn't poke her in the eye... |
Jen wasn't for sure what she was doing at the makeup counter in Primpernelle's, she hardly ever wore makeup and when she did it was quite basic. Picking up a thing of eye shadow she inspected it closely, maybe she should get a couple different things and try them, just to have something to do. Tapping her foot as she continued to go through the makeup counter taking her time looking at each product, Jen was about to give up completely on her impromptu trip that had absolutely no reasoning behind it. |

Then it was a good place to start. Once inside, Aspen dropped her father's hand as nonchalantly as she could manage and went straight for the makeup counter. Aspen would have maybe perused more if she were alone, but the thing about being 'almost 13' was that she didn't get to shop alone much. She found things went smoother for everyone if she just got what she wanted/needed and got out with minimal dawdling. Aspen pretty much knew what she wanted, but it was the how much that was the issue - both for costs and longevity. Christmas was a reeeeeally long time away before she could ask for more. "Do you think - ," Aspen looked around for the shopkeeper, then lowered her voice to a whisper, "Do you think this is the sort of thing that you can't duplicate with magic?" Hence the need to come back and buy more, instead of just continuously re-supplying yourself. Aspen had mascara, and eye ...stuff, and glosses as well as blush and powder. She held out her takings for his inspection. The sensible side of Aspen only allowed her one of each. She'd just have to save her money for more. |

"You could make it, I suppose. Like with potions and things." He answered. Honestly Leon hadn't thought much about it all. Making... make up. ... "Do you need all that?" Some of those colours were a bit.... strong. He examined it all and noting one that was a little bit too grown up in his opinion, he tapped it. That one. Could go back. "Did you want to try any of it first? Or... is your research enough." Awkward. Leon didn't usually DO awkward. He wandered away a bit to give her a moment. |

Aspen almost always took her father seriously when he made suggestions. She'd put stock into this making makeup, but later. She wasn't exactly a potions master. Yet, anyways. Ohh... "But...," Aspen cut herself off before the protest could form. She was SO glad she'd only gotten one of most things. Feeling properly scolded, Aspen put back the lip gloss and didn't bother replacing it. She'd cut her losses and just be grateful. That's what she'd do. .... with just a bit of sullenness. She DID kind of want to try the glosses and things. It was her birthday and she was out... but it WAS awkward. It was. Aspen still put on one of the new (and approved) lip glosses - something she obviously had done before. She finished with an audible pop of her lips then dumped all her birthday makeup on the counter. "I'm ready, Pops." |
