Why I Wear Makeup Every Day of Self-Isolation Essay
I Wore Full Glam For a Week of Staying at Home, and It Made Me Feel Human Again
7
How I Felt: I woke up feeling recharged because I knew it was my last day! I wanted to do something fun, and perhaps a little risky, so I swiped on blue eyeshadow and a blush-y cheek. I think I surprised some people on Facetime with such a bold look, but I loved using such a mood-boosting colour.
The Final Verdict: Honestly, I'm so happy I did this. It truly improved my mood and even made me more motivated to be productive with other activities throughout the day. While I probably won't do a full, trendy glam look every day, I'll definitely continue to wear makeup when I need a pick-me-up. The actual act of putting it on truly gives me joy.
The Products I Used: Colourpop 25/8 Blush Stix in Warm Rose ($8);
