Putting on my make up

So if you didn't know, I love make up.
My little sister Claire said a few months ago "i'm going to take my 2000$ violin more places then you are going to take your Naked palettes."

AND THIS IS COMPLETELY TRUE!
I love those things to death. And I use them every. single. day.
No joke.

I started putting on make up the summer before 7th grade.
Very natural easy stuff I just sort of threw on.
It wasn't until much later in life and I got some more make up that I actually started experimenting with it.
And I loved it.
Its one of my favorite times of the day when I put on my make up.
I turn into a different person.
I'm more confident.
I feel more beautiful.
I don't have to hide and I can hold my head up high.
I am more confident.

Which this entire situation is odd because i'm changing myself to feel more confident. To have more power in myself.
But that's what you have to do sometimes.

I hardly ever go out in public with out make up.
I just don't like letting myself be vulnerable.
And I feel vulnerable with out make up.
My skin fluctuates so quickly from pretty good to a hot mess in a matter of days so there is a very short period when I could go with out make up and I never do it.
Its always, another day i'll do that.
But not today.
I don't want to show my vulnerable side today.

At least with make up I pretend to be something else.
I don't have to show the real me.
Because that's too scary for me some days.

So maybe there will come a day when I can roll out of bed, throw on clothes and walk out the door. With out make up.

That will be a good day when my confidence has risen that height.
