Here is a word that was brand-new to me, but it seemed just perfect for our smouldering henchman.
Fard: (verb) to apply cosmetics; (noun) facial cosmetics. Fard comes from the old Low Franconian word farwidon which means “to dye or color.”
In the Old French it became farder meaning “to apply makeup.”
Sir Guy: have any other males wearing as much makeup as he, ever been so damned masculine and sexy? Methinks not. Not just the Guyliner; Ye Olde Medieval Mascara, Brow Pencil and Guyshadow all enhanced his beautiful peepers (there is also a rumor he dyed his hair and designer stubble to increase his bad boy appeal, but I can neither confirm or deny that . . .).
Sir Guy’s fard, which he fards so well makes him even more smouldering and irresistible for me.
Hmmm, the last pic… so sexy… so swoon… ❤
Oh, yes, except if I were really that close, I would want to be fully conscious and enjoy every second.
Me too… 😉
I know he’s supposed to be all bad and rotten in that scene–taking that young girl’s necklace in such a manner–but boy is he hot!!
It’s not Sir Guy of Gisborne… it’s Sir Guy of Gorgeous, lol.
I’ve also seen him called Sir Guy of Sexborne–which is quite appropriate, too. 😉
Guy of Sexborne… Hot hot hot… 🙂
Feeling, hot, hot, hot!!! 😀
Somehow, I don’t think “fard” is the root of the Irish expression “fardles”. Can anyone enlighten me?
Erm.. I’ve always wondered this… How do you dye stubble?
Actually, I have wondered if they used either some type of stage makeup powder to blacken the stubble or a temporary dye you brush on–sort of like those touch-up wands you see to use on regrowth.
I really don’t like the sound of this word… Reminds me too much of “lard”… 🙂
LOL it reminds me of “fart.” However, it was a splendid excuse to include close-ups of Guy and his makeup. 😉
LOL, I thought of Fart, too! But he is the only guy I’ve every seen who’s wearing as much make-up as I usually do and who actually looks masculine!! (And hot, sexy, breathtaking, studly, etc.)
In my Sloth Fiction, I actually give Guy a set of mascaras from Sephora so he’ll stop borrowing mine LOL It’s almost as if the makeup complements and enhances his very masculine beauty. Most men would look either effeminate or downright foolish made up in such a fashion–but not him. There were times when he had just about as much makeup on as Lucy–maybe more sometimes! LOL
LOL! Ye Olde Medieval Maskara,..lard,…fart…Girls you are great!:D
Thank you for these merry English lessons!:)
Glad I ccould provide both entertainment and education. 😉
