Makeup!

I've been meaning to throw up a makeup post just because. For those of you not familiar with the makeup community - I'm assuming pretty much everyone - it's almost entirely comprised of women, drag queens and transgender folks (very few hetero males). Being a part of several male-dominated fora, the makeup forums (not YouTube, but fora like Makeup Alley) that I occasionally frequent are hands down the nicest (no snark at all) and are filled with lots of unironic glee over things like glitter (which I love).

  1. There's a make-up community!? When you said you liked make-up, I just assumed you meant you wore it and enjoyed its benefits. I had absolutely no idea that you could actually study it.

  3. Yess! Now your cooking with gas, mon a mi.
