I have to go powder my nose.

Question: would you date the girl on the left or on the right?

(so lol)

Anyways, yes, I wear makeup sometimes. And yes, I have probably spent too much money on it. Cosmetics is to accentuate a clean, natural face when I go out in public (excludes classrooms and lab). Places to eat & shop with good company while appearing refreshed and approachable. I prioritize just the skin and the eyes, and here's what I use (and recommend).



1. Missha Perfect Cover BB cream triples as a foundation, moisturizer, and sunscreen. It's semi-sheer but covers up pores pretty well, and a little goes a long way. No breakouts too. However, if you have oily skin, I would try sampling first.



2. Shiseido concealer and translucent powder for concealing my ghastly bags and oil control for long-wear use.


3. Korres brown eyeliner (received as a gift!) to define my eyes so that they look more awake. I sometimes darken the corners with a black eyeliner (yay for free sample-sized pencils).

+ menthol-free chapstick!
