I was handing over a patient in recovery the other day when the PACU nurse interrupted me to say she liked what I’d done with my makeup.
”It’s different to what you usually do.” She said. I was taken aback, not just because it came out of nowhere and definitely wasn’t on task, but also because I never wear makeup to work. I had a look at my face in the scrub room mirror shortly afterwards, and found that the red rash I sometimes get around my eyes had come back.
