When I was a little girl, I loved to play with my mom’s makeup. I would sit in her bathroom looking at her lip colors, eye shadows and blushes for hours! To me, it was the most glamorous place on earth.
I wasn’t allowed to have my own makeup until I was in sixth grade. I begged my parents for weeks to get me Revlon’s Pink Foil lipstick, it was all I wanted and I all dreamed about. I had a sixth grade dinner dance coming up, and I wanted to go to it feeling beautiful — hence the need for lipstick (and the need to impress a Todd Melton).
Fast forward 20 (some-odd) years, I’m still a lover of makeup and it still makes me feel beautiful. I don’t have my own little girls to sit with and dish about makeup, but I do have two nieces who are both in sixth grade. They are my little fashionistas and love everything and anything beautiful!
