Hiya girlies!

From tomorrow I am visiting my partner's highly Catholic, Eastern European parents, so I will have to pretend to be a boy for like two weeks straight.

I already know I'm gonna feel disgusting when I get back.

So what things do you do to feel cute and feminine? I'd love to have some nice things to try when I am safe again.

Thank you <3

I have recently discovered an invention. It covers blemishes, wrinkles, and has been known to at least one person to help with self-confidence. I call it "makeup."

Joking aside, I'm starting to find that incorporating makeup into my morning routine helps with my self-image and confidence. And a little goes a long way! A bit of foundation or concealer, some eyeshadow, some blush, a touch of lipstick, and in 20 or so minutes, you'll look fabulous! I've only applied it to myself a few times, but getting some help from my kids and some new friends has helped me a lot!

If you aren't comfortable with makeup yet, I suggest finding a few trusted friends to paint you up and give you some pointers, if you haven't already!
