In My Own Skin
I don’t have a hot date tonight, but I wanted to feel pretty. #redlipstick seemed to do the trick, among other things. I know I’ve actually been posting pics of myself finally that are without makeup. That’s been a huge step for me, though. There are plenty of things I still see in myself that […]
