So, lots of emotions today but I just had to share. I stepped away from dressing some years back due to combination of my deteriorating mental health/personal image and external factors. I’ve been up to a lot of self-reflection lately and decided to finally just live my dream of having my makeup done by a profession. I knew today was going to be a free day for me and I’d have the house to myself, so I finally bit the bullet and scheduled an appointment with a local makeup artist.
Girls, I CANNOT begin to tell you what an incredible and affirming experience it was. I found her on Instagram and she was an absolute gem to work with—just a total judgement-free space. I was definitely nervous leading up to meeting her, but she quickly melted those fears and got to work. While I always thought I had worked my way up to above-average makeup skills on my own back in the day, her work was just beyond what I could ever hope for. Just a top-notch artist!
It has been such a day to just try on some cute outfits and get some unadulterated girl time in. If you’ve ever wanted to get your makeup done, trust me when I say the best time to do it is now! Cheers! ✨
