Hi there 👋 other me ☺️ or maybe you're the real me. I've been looking into the mirror a lot lately, the scene is one I dread to see, the face staring back doesn't seem quite right. The once innocent eyes have now lost its glee, a few cysts you call pimples now nest with no pay, black spots that makes me look like a distant relative to the cheetahs of the african jungle. Freckles I didn't ask for or is it the rescinding hairline. I've been told we age like fine wine, but a rag is all I see 🙈, I keep getting compliments like you are gorgeous, beautiful, cute but ---- Only if they knew what lies behind the mask. Those layers of cosmetics or the countless hours of finding the right tone and what looks best on me. A daily occurrence one that's been my shield 🛡️ so to my dear makeup 💄thank u.
