Makeup

I've always been a little behind everyone. Almost like I need to see how they do it before I attempt it.

I've recently begun to put makeup on. Before recently ... I just didn't care ... but maybe because I'm aging (still young) I'm getting into the whole .... must hide baggy eyes and wrinkles phase. It also helped that when I started it was for my sister's wedding so I purchased just what I needed. I am still quite poor at putting on makeup but I'm getting better every time. My makeup consists of foundation, eye shadows and lipgloss. I recently added 5 more shadows, an eye liner and have been contemplating a primer and facial cleanser and moisturizer. I get all my stuff from my sister-in-law who sells Mary Kay.

I realize that many people have the facial cleanser and moisturizer first but I've NEVER had a problem with my face. It's been fine ... which leads me to ponder the idea of having a cleanser and moisturizer. I'm a little worried it'll clog pores, chap skin ... I don't know. We'll see. I also need something because with makeup and the removal of makeup my skin is feeling a little ... dry?

Anyways ... if you see me around with weird looking makeup ... just realize I'm still learning. It's also adding time to my morning routine which kind of sucks but I feel pretty good once it's on so I think it's worth it.

Next step : Getting rid of these ANNOYING white strands and getting the dandruff under control. I've been using Arbonne and it seemed okay for about 3 1/2 months, then I needed to change because it stopped working. I'm not sure if it's because the weather and my own body changed in those months but I switched to Head and Shoulders and it's keeping it .... at bay ... but it means I have to wash my hair EVERY DAY ... which makes it hard to do anything with because it's so ... smooth and shiny? Anyways ... it sucks.

Tips? .

Hair

I need to get my hair done. SIGH. I hate getting my hair done. I wish I hadn't cut it :( I'm now uber regretting cutting my hair. I can't put it up into a semi-cool ponytail, instead it's the little ... baby ponytail. (pout) Also, because I colored it ... I have the roots to now deal with. It's been STRONGLY suggested I do highlights next time because they will 'age' better.

Why color my hair? Well ... I've entered the phase of ... the greys. WHAT?! I know. I'm only 28 and I have white/grey hair. Drives me a little crazy.

Sidenote : I like to compare going to the hairdresser with going to the dentist. They always tsk at the condition my hair is in. Yeesh. I wash it honestly!!!

I would like to go blond, but ... I really don't think I'm a blond girl (HAHAHAHA) but really I'm not. I'm a brunette. I miss my long hair. When it grows out I'm going to baby it. I mean not SUPER long, but definitely longer. I love my facebook profile picture. I was even having a bad hair day and it turned out SUPER nice. THANK goodness.

On another tangent ... I should book our family pictures for the fall ... or maybe some summer ones ... I don't know. When IS The best time for family pictures anyways??
