I really disagree with the ‘quote’ in the image. I definitely think there is value in quitting something that is not right – whether it’s a job to go to grad school, a relationship that is not working or healthy, or a hobby that is not satisfying. It’s easy to say, “oh, well, it’s just meant to be an encouraging quote” but I also think giving someone permission to stop and quit can be encouraging, as well.

I think the assumption is that you’re making progress toward a goal you want to achieve and you may need to be patient about achieving it.
You take what you want to see from it, your experience leads you to see something different.

I tried the Rimmel primer for about two weeks, but found that it actually had the opposite effect on my oily skin– it was great for the first half hour I had it on, but it didn’t have any staying power and wound up leaving my skin shinier than had I just used a normal routine. Hopefully you’ve had a different experience with it– obviously everyone’s skin works differently.
It’s more expensive, but Make Up For Ever’s mattifying primer has been great for me, and if you can splurge and the Rimmel one isn’t working for you, it’s worth it to not have to worry about shininess. I lasted through an entire day in the sun for a wedding and only had to blot once 4-5 hour after makeup application. Highly recommend!
