    Did my makeup for the first time in... Like years.

    I can count on two hands the amount of times I've done full makeup in my life. I always hate it.

    But this time... I got it people.

    I went into a store to get color matched, so my foundation actually looks like my skin tone. Previously, I always went too white, so I looked like a clown 🤡.

    I went the whole nine yards here: primer, color corrector, foundation, eye shadow, eye liner, mascara, lip color, setting powder.

    I had my hair up in a headband to apply, and when I finished, I was like "oh, clown town again," but when I let my hair down, it all clicked into place.

    Folks... I look really pretty. Not like cute pretty, but like smokey hot.

    I'm not even good at it yet, so it's only gonna get better. I'm still in my teenage girl over application phase.

    Put together an outfit, and I'm sittin' pretty. Don't know what else to do for the rest of the day but just... Sit here lol. Can't stop looking in the mirror tbh. Probably a good sign.

    I have super sensitive skin, so I'm worried about taking it all off because cleansing usually destroys my moisture barrier and makes me break out. We'll see what I have to pay for a half day of being beautiful 🌹
