made for the Aug 5 Summer Scrapathon challenge: wrestling. Scrap a decision you wrestled with. Makeup should be a simple thing I did way too much thinking here.

You look amazing. I love the selfie and the story. I love the colors you chose and I love all the details. What a great take on the challenge.
 
I'm right there with you on that hashtag #oldladying! I've lost count of how many times I go to buy makeup but come home with nothing because there's just too much choice and I don't understand any of it. Your page design is excellent. It gives off Cathy Zielske vibes, which is a style I love.
 
first of all, Congrats on the blog feature!!!!! super well deserved!!! I think is great to expand, even in things that may seem superfluous to some, having your thoughts written down for the future to be able to know the kind of lives we live...not just to your family but, in my honest opinion, scrapbooking pages are so well rounded an art, beautiful visuals and the information when thought through like here, is what makes our real history, and we do love knowing how different eras lived. On the make up front, I was on stage for over 30 years and had to wear sometimes more than one would to street wear, so when I had my daughter I stopped (both performing and make up, I was 37, almost 38), these days I only do make up when going to an event, weddings, New Year's Eve, that kind of thing, sometimes for my birthday....but have felt great without...thing is because of the drying and I have a bit of excema in bits of the T zone, I got a L'Oreal 7 in one, it kinda gets my skin to my natural tone (which was "bleached" after 30 something years of England LOL) but need to remember to take it off at night or the pillow covers will remain stained for 5 washes ! LOL You know this (your thoughts here) made me realized that I have been. completely mistaken about the Bobbi Brown company...for some reason I thought it was Bobbi Brown daughter of Whitney Houston, I think it was because before she died, maybe a year or so before, she started a make up line..... living in England, not always we are aware of everything that goes on in the US, I love what you tell us about Jones Road, I'm gonna have a look if it is available here, maybe Selfridges will have it, would love to try, I wore make up last year for my 65th birthday cruise, loved every minute, but what I was a using didn't feel all that right. Thanks for sharing this!!!!!!!!!!!
PS: I do know you, am I right? from scrapping elsewhere? MY memory iOS terrible these days but some people make a distinct impression and I think you are who I think you are, anyway, page is brilliant, once again, thanks for sharing!!!!!!!!!
