When I was younger I tried to use make-up subtly to correct my features ( larger eyes, smaller nose, bigger lips, uneven skin, etc). I didn't dare to use bold make-up either. Sort of just wanted to look 'prettier'. Then as my mental state deteriorated and I went through phases of 'fuck you' to the world, I started to experiment more with bold colour. I went through a phase of very dark make-up even though I was told it would make my eyes look smaller, then a phase of blue eye-shadow :oops:, red eye-shadow, cat eyes and nothing but blush. Now I hate it when I try to look 'pretty'. I like to try different looks just see how I'd look when I have the energy. Sometimes having a different look to try on is the thing that helps me to get out of bed and get out of the house.
Recently though stress, bad diet, etc got the better of me and my skin has been terrible, so I switched to better quality make-up and better skincare.
P/S: Is anyone using A313 Pommade or any Retinol products here?
