Getting ready... have a hot cup of coffee and am putting on my makeup.
Not sure the look I'm going for today...
but I'm not in a rush this morning so I'm just playing with techniques and colors.
Since I'm writing about how makeup is a part of my morning it reminded me of what someone recently told me; people who wear makeup on a regular basis don't feel comfortable in their natural skin and that it's false advertisement of what you really look like. This is not the first time I've heard this and my response is... not true.
I can and do walk out of the house without makeup on. However, I prefer to wear it to enhance my features and because it makes me feel ready and confident to start each day. There is a balance between too much and not enough but that's for you to test out and see what works for your style.
So, if you're someone who very rarely wears makeup give it a try you might be surprised at how natural you can make it look and if nothing else at least wear lip gloss. If you're someone who always wears makeup its ok to let your face have a "natural" day.

Helpful tip: If you have a lot of makeup and don't know how to store and organize it all, use a tackle box... it's a lot cheaper than buying a professional case!
