Smart move! Actually, and this is a tightly held secret that I would not want to get out the general populace, even though I have dark brown hair, my eyelashes are blond. Being a bit self conscious (okay, more than a bit ) and concerned about my appearance, I use mascara to darken my lashes, thus giving me that youthful look.

I've never had my top and bottom lashes get stuck together with mascara (other stuff, yes...). I have been known to put a few lines on my cheek when applying it, and if there's any hint of moisture anywhere near my eyes, it all dissolves and makes me look like a panda. Except for one, which has stayed on even in the shower. It's also the only non-waterproof one I use

Thank you! That is good to know.

That can't be right!! You should be chuffed when someone sits on your psock, or uses it for toilet paper or something. It just sounds like that kind of word...

Ok, I'll try it out.... *big breath*

I'm chuffed that school is almost out for the summer!

*sigh* no, just doesn't sound right....

At your young age you should not have to descend to such un-natural wiles....

Either way, chuffed or chaffed, sounds to us Americans like a negative type word, not like something we would like to be or experience. At least to this American.
