I desire I had an inspirational, paradigm-shifting or empowering story to response this concern with, however I don’t… I just wished to do what my good friends were doing (I was in seventh grade), as well as they were all using makeup…but not makeup to the Instagram-levels youngsters wear today — just simple things like pencil liner, lipstick, blush, powder. Or, if you were *really* fancy, you used mascara, ooh-la-la!
It started with me sneaking shaky, unequal purple eyeliner onto my lids in the girls’ bathroom in seventh grade every morning when I got to school, which was kinda dumb now that I believe about it since my parents left for work before I left for institution in the morning, so I could’ve quickly put it on before school, however I believe there was something alluring about really doing my makeup at school… It made that purple liner seem even more forbidden.
