I went for a stye on my eye. He walked in the room and said "you are not going to like anything I have to say" then proceeded with "you are obviously a HEAVY makeup user" "you need to stop having lashes put on" "you should be using these wipes" proceeded to pull one out and wiped his eyes with one then said "you are obviously not using these". Then I told him I absolutely do not use makeup on my face, only lipstick, lite blush and eyeliner but absolutely nothing but face creams on my face. But I have ordered a milder face wash in hopes to reduce the redness. Think that was from the expensive face regiment but certainly NOT heavy makeup. Was just a rude comment!!!
