Confessions of a Shopping Centre

Overheard in Kmart tonight:

Girlfriend: "I just bought a really nice L'oreal eyeliner, and it's like, wrecked already. Cost me like, $30."

Boyfriend: "Don't worry. You can borrow mine."

EEEEEEEEEEEEMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Seriously though, isn't L'oreal a bit mainstream? Isn't there some sort of make-up brand out there that caters for these mizundertood kids with names like 'Death eyeliner' and 'Cut me Lipstick'? Very disappointing. Although the Commerce Student within is thinking 'Hmmm. Market Opportunity?'

NO. Unless you count Manic Panic, or even MAC/Napoleon. All too pricey.

Desci dearest, let us go into business together and makes lots of money.

We can even sell nail polish with an 'easy-chip' formula!

Nah, it'd never work. The peeps who would/should buy said product would never go for being so stereotyped.
