She really is a wonderful person. She's so caring and lovely.

Makeup is hit or miss with me, but I'm getting my routine down and tweaking as I get better.  Ooh, if you want a good foundation, Make Up For Ever's Matte Velvet Skin is a great lightweight, full-coverage foundation that flexes with your face and hardly looks like makeup at all. Waterproof, no transfer, and breathable. Just no SPF, which is a bummer. Bought it through Sephora for $38 and it lasts a long time. 0_~
The main issue that I've had with Foundation I usually use powder but I also have psoriasis which is dry flaky skin and I get it on my upper lip and nose so when I use powder foundation it shows the dry skin area but I don't like liquid that much so kind of at an impasse

A good primer and a foundation like the one I mentioned may help. It isn't drying and barely feels like there's anything on my face. Maybe try it out at the store? I did that and they gave me a sample to take home with me in a tiny plastic container that I still have and have yet to run out. I also used a beauty blender for the first time with it and fell in love. Idk, if you get a consultation, you may find something that satisfies you more than powder and gives you a better experience than what you've had.
Be your own master, not the slave to illusion;
The lord of your own life, not the servant to falsities;
Only then will you realize your true potential and shake off the burdens of your fears and doubts.

I do have a primer that I bought already like 4 of them it's just I'm not very used to using liquids also you can private message me so we don't hijack the thread completely and can still talk about makeup

Almost two months after FFS, no makeup beyond a little brow color to fill in a gap.

I'm happy with the result.

Thanks, ladies! I think Megan will tell you that your version of Arctic and my version of Arctic are vastly different! :laugh: She was in Boston last January, we spent a day walking around the city.

Here's a Colorado glam photo. 20 degrees F last Sunday when I went for a trail run. You might say this is my androgynous look lol. Might be more days like this coming, but here's one from a little warmer conditions on Friday, same trail. You just never know what tomorrow will bring.

Take care,

Sonja.

Thanks! Geocaching is a GPS based treasure hunt. You find the cache, then log in your find online. This one was in a city square, some are out in the woods, the north pole, etc. Some are just a tiny scrap of paper you sign, others are as big as a shed.

Well I wanted to say at the picture of the group of you always absolutely beautiful but I wanted to know where the woman on the far-right got her outfit at I want one just like it LOL please

Sent from my SM-S337TL using Tapatalk

Thank you!  The outfit is actually a combination of pieces that she put together herself.  She's one of my roommates.   The top was from Fashion Nova (I know that because I bought it for myself and had to give it to her when it didn't fit me) and the other parts are things she's had for a while.  I'm not sure where she got the jacket and the bottoms are just some pleather shorts and leggings.  The boots she got off Ebay.
