10 things all boyfriends of beauty girls go through

If you’re a diehard beauty junkie, you’ll know that your habits may make finding the perfect significant other a little tricky.
He needs to be patient, attentive and above all, willing to give up his bathroom space. Once you find a man who respects your obsession and accepts you’ll always have another relationship with beauty on the side, you hold on tight.

Here are ten of your beauty habits he knows all too well...
#1 A change in your appearance is worthy of a compliment
He’s learnt to always comment on how beautiful you look, even if he can’t quite put his finger on what’s different.
#2 He knows to give you ample time to get ready for your dinner date
Because there’ll be at least half an hour of trying on different outfits, and don’t even get us started on make-up options.
#3 The bathroom is a sacred, private place
Girls don’t poop, mo’s are waxed in private, and we have special underwear that must remain unseen. Plus we like to indulge in a bit of secret girl behaviour, like singing in the bath, every now and then.
#4 We have a skin care regimen that's not for the faint-hearted
Squeezing gunk is just too much fun!
#5 Eyeliner is SERIOUS business
Any attempt to distract you while you attempt near cat-eye perfection will not bode well.
#6 Unexpected weather plays a huge impact on our decision making
Can the curls, tonight’s an updo. Now just have to make a few amendments to make-up and outfit choice…
#7 Tanning night is his most feared night of the week
Old sheets are brought out, a strict “no bodily contact” rule is in play, and the pressure to apply tan to your back without leaving streaks is enough to break him into a sweat. #boyfriendduties
#8 He knows to be on heat tool patrol
You need his help not to burn the house down.
#9 He enjoys the benefits of your beauty hoarding
Before you, he never knew the importance of body scrub and eye cream, but is now completely on board.
#10 He loves you no matter what you look like
Which makes you the luckiest girl in the world.
What other beauty truths does your boyfriend experience?

I've no worries here as I don't have a boyfriend like other's do but they are all great & us women do like to look our best where as with a bloke it's 1,2,3 & their done just like that. So ladies should always come first & man second, I definitely like no.10

ever so slowly you'll start rubbing off on your partner...first its the amazing smelling body wash from Lush, then its the expensive cleanser in the shower seems to be going down faster than you thought and then heaven forbid he uses the $40 shampoo!

Accurate as always lol. My fiance knows to stay away when I'm applying eyeliner. Although he likes to watch me sometimes as apparently I look like I'm really concentrating and that's amusing to him LOL.
