Another confession! I was a little bit of a tomboy because my mom was a natural beauty and never talked girly things with me. I wore dresses, had Barbies but I was the one climbing trees and playing in the mud. My BFF in junior high school wore makeup when we were 13 but I was 16 years old when I went for it. I was inspired by a Madonna music video on MTV. It was in the 90s when MTV still played music videos. My weapon of choice: pencil eyeliner. And you had to have a good sharpener and a lighter. I remember the first time I applied it, my mom was out grocery shopping with my siblings and they came home and I was so stoked to show it off. What a dork! I wish I could tell you that I really got into makeup but I've always kept it simple. Foundation, liquid eyeliner (I upgraded!), mascara, blush and lipgloss. My younger sister lucked out and got the talent and true love for makeup (she's a MUA!)
Fast forward to now --- Being pregnant, labor, delivery and taking care of a baby sucks the life out of my skin and hair. My body suffers for about two years. My face has been breaking out like crazy and I really want to mellow out my foundation use. I have tried unsuccessfully for a few years to find something that would work for lighter coverage and I finally found it - L'Oréal Magic BB Cream! I wasn't sure what to expect. I squirted the tube on my palm and out came white liquid. Its not firm at all and I went with my instinct and rubbed it together. Thats when the color started to change and it actually matched my skin! I applied it to my face with my hands and when it started to dry I was a bit nervous that there was no coverage. After a few minutes I could definitely see it working. I tried to take a selfie but I don't even know how to do it right! I spent my day out & about and it felt like I barely had any makeup on, I loved it!
