Well, welcome to my sad excuse for a blog. I'll start with telling you that I live an extremely normal life. Like, absurdly normal. Nothing special over here; just a girl with a passion.
Like almost every 13-70 year old woman I know, I love all things beauty. Makeup, skincare, hair care, nail polish - you name it. As part of my normal lifestyle, I have insecurities. Beauty products are life's Photoshop [I'm extremely not computer-savvy] and they make me feel better about myself and give me this confidence even Ryan Gosling couldn't give me.
I'd like to say I'm a self-proclaimed product junkie, but I know I'm far from. I love reading the reviews and watching YouTube videos of others who share my obsession, too. I'll buy a few products here and there, try them out, then see what some of these other beauties think about it, too. Or sometimes I just plain buy what someone raves about. Do I love it as much as she does? Does she even have the same skin type/tone as me? Would I really wear this purple lipstick? (That answer is yes, by the way.) She lied to me! That product was awful! Everyone has an opinion and I am curious about it. So why not throw my own in the mix?
Here's a little bit about me: I'm Italian-American, brown eyes, dark hair. I have normal-to-dry light olive skin (read: yellowy undertone, but my cheeks gets red.) I tan super easily, but to be honest, I know how bad tanning can be so I'm pretty light most of the year, even though I LOVE me a good bronze skin. Wrinkles are my enemy. "Where are my sunglasses, I don't want wrinkles," is a key phrase in my life. I can be pretty daring with my makeup, so I'll try most anything from purple lipstick to double-winged liner, to colorful eye shadow. I am by no means a makeup artist (although I would love to be and have even been asked by a few women to "do mine like yours. It's so pretty.") I'm working on my makeup application techniques and skills and love learning from others.
Here goes nothing!
