Trying Something New

Hey Everyone,

I decided to try something new this afternoon, I got out the make up kit that my sister-in-law, Carrie, helped me by last year for prom.  And I kinda messed around with it ya knew trying different things.  Whats the point of spending so much money on a make-up kit if you onely use it maybe 2x in your life.  It's a waist of money right? 

Well last night I begged my mother to cut my hair because it was way to thick and to long I couldn't do anything with it.  So feeling good with my new hair cut I decided to have a updated pic of me put onto my said simple pages.  I got on one of my favorite tops though I'm sad to say I'm horrible at taking pics of myself lol.  My shirt dosen't show realy at all.  And the pic is kind of dark at the bottom.  Anyway let me know what yall think of my new hair cut and my attempts at make up. 

I doubt the make-up will become a part of my morning  rutine, simply because it's not really me I guess and I don't know anything about make up like how to make the eyes stand out or brighten them up or ect.  I thought I did a pretty good job.  I tried to put on mascara but all my lashes did was stick together in thick nasty clumps so I took it off, and just did the liquid foundation, blending powder, eye shadow, and a touch of blush and lip gloss.  I think it looks pretty good, I hope it kind of has a natural look to it.  I don't want to look like a clown. 

You can't really see it but I used a rosey colored blush and my eye shadow I used a lylac purpleish color and blended it with a pale silvery white shadow and some clear, shimery lip gloss with a touch of pink,sparkly lipstick to give it a little color.  I hope it looks ok.  I know the picture isn't good because I'm not talented when it comes to taking pictures of oneself.  All I could do was hold it out at arms links and experiments with elevation and angles and I finally got this semi decent one. 

Anyway I hope yall like it, as it is a very rare sight to see me with make-up on.  Let alone make-up that I put on myself because I wanted it on.  I think my trying to put on make up and make myself pretty is in away trying to help me get over whatever it was that happened to Ashton, and to go on with my life even though it's not much of one.  I dunno why I put the make-up on.  I just felt like I wanted to look different, special  or I was trying to connect with my friends addiction of the stuff and try and understand what they think is so important about it that they won't step outside if they don't have make-up on. 

I'll have to take a shower tonight to get all this stuff off, and the hair spray and moose out of my hair lol.  Boy trying to make yourself pretty to the world's standards shure is a lot of work.  I wonder if it's even worth it for someone like me.  Who dosen't dress up and go to parties or things like that.  Well that's all for today *hugs and muahs*

Love,

~Star~
