    Three ways to describe my beauty style: Fresh-faced and simple, classic and glam, pretty in pink.

     

    I wear makeup… Most of the time, but it’s okay to skip some days!

    My best beauty tip: Don’t overdo it! If you are applying foundation, make sure you are in natural light so it doesn’t end up darker or cakier than intended.
