Feeling Myself

When part 3 of Chilling Adventures of Sabrina came out, NYX dropped this AMAZING Sabrina eye shadow palette and sets of lipsticks. I absolutely fell in LOVE with the palette and I needed to have it.

Of course it sold out the same day and I was shit outta luck. But luckily, that was only the online launch. They did a store launch at ULTA the following Sunday, and I took a break in the middle of the day to go get it.

It was sold out. 😧

But then the best bestie anyone could have (MY BFF) drove to the ULTA in York and bought the last one they had. Then drove back down to Lancaster, and dropped it off for me at work.

I cried, I'll admit it. I wanted that palette soooo badly! And since then, I've been doing my makeup for work.

On the one hand, it's a little uncomfortable having people give me compliments and mention my face. I'm not used to the (positive) attention, and I feel more visible. On the other hand, I loooove these colors and I like the way they look on me, and I like the way they make me feel. I am definitely more confident. And also, it kinda serves as armor, and I feel I can be more assertive with people at work - something I've been wanting to do, because I feel like as a supervisor they don't usually take us that seriously. But since I started wearing makeup, I think I'm getting better results from the team I supervise.

I've been having to wake up earlier to get it done, but I have a nice routine going and I definitely feel more adult. LOL. I did say I wanted to be more "grown up" this year since I just turned 34. Hopefully I can keep this up and I don't stop.

Its magic...

Whenever you find magic, you must use it. How else will it know to come again?
