It's great for your skin!

I have a lipstain for special occasions and I use it maybe twice a year.

I can manage some really minimal application of powder, mascara and lipstick if it's absolutely necessary because of social expectations or some unusual level of skin drama, but I can't really do the full thing without looking like I work at the circus.

It was fun to paint up like a clown and I enjoyed it for myself. I think. heh.
But what a gross waste of time and money, looking back now.

But my daughter doesn't much at all, (just once in a while because of mom's clown genes I guess and all that other stuff mom's have no control over) and she is complimented by men in her family when she doesn't. I think that's a good thing for men to say.

i love my makeup and its a form of art for me but i never think of it as a necessity. sometimes there will be weeks that i won't wear any at all.

I wear it every day to work. On the weekends I allow my skin the chance to breathe.

but to play in
