I’m unexpectedly at home with some free time, so I decided to get a yummy drink, put on some music, and try on something new with my makeup. Some of it is a bit rough because I’m using a new white eyeliner but it was so fun and so gender affirming and so girlhood jiji 🫧✨🥳💋💖💕🫶🏼🫶🏼🏳️⚧️
(I think next time I won’t do the white dots on the eyelids and just let the glitter be protagonist)

story time! in high school i was so insecure that i literally would not leave the house without doing at least 30-40 mins of full face makeup. i decided to stop wearing it my senior year and became really determined to put it away for good.
but slowly over the last several years, i reintroduced mascara, then a tiny bit of concealer, then a little eyeliner, and now i’ve found a routine that feels right for me! and i do not rely on it like i used to, i can walk outside without makeup and feel totally good about myself.
but ive also been scared of getting too much back into makeup. i’ve been holding myself back because i don’t want to bring up those old insecurities and become completely reliant on it again. but i just bought a very colorful eyeshadow to try and it reminded me how fun it can be!!!
long story short, have fun with bringing color back into your life. dont let fears of regression stop you from experiencing joy!

I enjoy my bare face but it's been fun experimenting with different eyeliner styles. I basically enjoy drawing little things on my face hahahah

My last break up left me feeling super neglected so I got together with a friend and we went to the beach together. I cooked for us and she drove. We spent the day there and it was just so nice to be under the sun and to feel the wind on my face and under my dress. I pretended to be a middle-age divorcé who leaves her family to feel young and free again by the beach, smoke, read, drink, dance, and flirt with hotties.
None of that happened ofc, we just went to the beach and ate home-made burgers, but having a friend to entertain my delusion and hang out at the beach was equally as healing. I will bever forget that day

A little personal, but being non-binary, I grew up very dissociated from my body and my time, so I don’t remember a good chunk of my formative years and have retained none of my hobbies. Recently tho, I have been trying to piece myself back together, so I have been spending a lot of time on my own. Another thing about me is that I have crushes everywhere I go, so I spend a lot of time loving others. After breaking-up with an ex that made me feel very neglected qnd unappreciated, I decided that I was going to give myself as much love and attention as I give my crushes and lovers. This has changed me.
I just let myself feel my feelings and get carried away by them. I get myself little treats and flowers, I get myself little treats and gifts. I organize little fun dates/plans for myself where I engage in new hobbies. Small manageable things that don’t feel too overwhelming to learn, like decorating Altoids tins with collage or journaling. By letting myself navigate the world through my feelings, I’ve discovered what I like, dislike, and developed little rituals and habits that I can then tell other about and share.
Social media has helped me that way, surprisingly. I treat my instagram like a scrap book and use it to document my feelings with shitposts and photos; the visual story telling makes me appreciate the little things. Pinterest allows me to collect things I like and develop a taste with no effort and no consequences, and I end up with huge pin boards full of pictures and art I love and that make me feel particular things I can name and explore. This app has been good for that too.
It takes time, love, self-compassion, and trust. Trust that the love others give you is legitimate. Trust that you are liked for a genuine reason. Trust that the mundane is magical by itself, love it for that. Trust that you don’t need to be special to be worthy of love, you can just be a person and that’s really cool <3
