It takes an average of 23 minutes for the modern woman to put on her "face", compared with an average of 90 minutes a decade ago.

Either these gals are really rushing through the process, or they're not doing a very good job.

BTW, if you like the end result, why complain about the amount of time it takes?

I guess those British gals have finally figured out that you can't turn a sow's ear into a silk purse. *running and ducking for cover.*

Hillary, of course, takes twice this amount of time to put on both of her faces.

Do the female(s) in your life take too long to get ready? My daughter (19) and I had to move to another apartment just so we would have more room for toilet articles and cosmetics.

imo...make up is to enhance the beauty God gave women...not to change the looks. I spend 5 minutes on makeup & 10 on hair. Simplicity is best. More time for the truly important things in life. :o)

Although the source is from the UK, surely, they must be writing about French women, for whom bathing and shaving of facial and other body hair is a rare thing.

"The survey of 1,000 men from across the UK, commissioned by dental care experts Oral B, revealed that 78 per cent wished their girlfriends actually spent more time over their appearance."

The UK and Dental Care? Why does this not sound right?

"Come on, let's go. Come-on, let's go." That's what they say (nag). So, you get up, grab the car keys and you go. Invariably, you will find yourself sitting in the car waiting.

You could be asleep in bed when they announce they are walking out the door and still find yourself in the car waiting with the engine idling for them to come out of the house.

It is the same at the store. True story coming...

I drop my wife off at the front of the store. She say she will be just 15 minutes. 45 minutes go by. No wife. I get and drive to the burger joint. Instead of the drive through, I go in and take my time. 20 minutes I'm there. I drive back to the store and park where I can see her if she comes out but she can not see me. My plan: watch her as she waits. Another 30 minutes later she walks out the door.

She got in the car and I swear that women never realized she had been in there over an hour.
