The comment about Sephora associates is patently untrue. You may be thinking of the Chanel counter at Bloomingdale's. All Sephora employees look very different. Some are attractive & some are not. But honestly, the message you're really sending with that statement is that as women, we should continue to engage in beauty wars & compete against each other. Are you purposely trying to help out the Patriarchy?! I suggest that anyone reading this post should immediately buy the book "The Beauty Myth" by Naomi Wolfe. That's true empowerment, which is always beautiful!

Never underestimate the power of a good makeup brush. They have some good drugstore ones if you don't want to shell out a lot. The type of makeup brush you use can change your entire look tbh there's a brush for everything and investing in the right blending brush saved my life and my eyeshadow game

@bettina to make your lipstick look good even after it comes off try applying a lip stain first and let it dry then add lipstick on top of it (make sure they are similar colors) so when the lipstick wears off the stain is still on
