femme future dreams:
in like 15 years i would really like a little box that can replace my makeup collection
instead i give it a hex number and what medium i want it mixed into - foundation, cream eyeshadow, lipstick, cheek stick etc. - and if i want it to be matte/gloss/glittery (with duocrome options or whatever)
and then it makes me up just enough for a few applications
every so often i just buy the base and pigment refills
almost like a 3d printer i guess? but i can then change around the base formula. like maybe i need one that's more moisturising for winter. ok pop that in, done. or maybe i need something with soothing ingredients instead. just pop that box in for it to draw the base from.
want to get the look of that makeup tutorial? yeah just scan the QR code and the machine will pull up the recipes for all of the stuff used and ask if you want to make it.
i KNOW makeup formulation isn't that easy but like
but i waaaaaaaaaaaaaant it?????
WHINES LOUDLY AT TECHNOLOGY.
i don't have the ability to keep up with 5 million palettes of whatever and only using like a smidge before i should throw out makeup for expiring, not to mention all the stuff where i try it and then go "oh fuck yeah that's not gonna work for me" :|
