This is my Aunt Becky. She is a mom and a grandma, if you can believe that! She is one of the most happy positive people I know. She loves everyone and is always doing something for someone besides herself so I decided it was about time she got a little “me” moment.

Don’t get overwhelmed with makeup!
I know how it is to go to M.A.C. and see those hot chicks, in black, wearing amazing, elaborate eyeshadow that takes them 45 minutes per eye. You think “I could never do that!”
Well the upside is, YOU NEVER NEED TO! Don’t get me wrong it looks cool and it takes talent, but I want people to say “wow, you are pretty!” instead of “wow, your makeup is pretty!”
It is easy to get caught up in the million different lipsticks, eye shadows and foundations in every color and texture, but remember you only have ONE face.
You can master this.
