About Me

Hey- I'm Jo. I'm a Mum. And I know nothing about makeup.
I have terrible skin and never had a Mum that had the desire to teach me about makeup. She barely wore it herself in her later years but my oldest sister always tells me about how she had these crazy winged eyes and wore these polyester catsuits whenever she went out to the discotheque. So, because I have bad skin I've always just kind of accepted I'll always look like crap.

Well, then my second son was born and with all the excess weight I've gained with pregnancy I was like- I need to change! I need to look better! And so, I fell in love with MAC. With Lisa Eldridge. With various youtube makeup artists... and tons of beauty blogs and sites like Temptalia.


For reference-

• I'm pale. MAC's studio sculpt in nw15 is way too dark and yellow for me.
• I have crazy red undertones and my skin is splotchy red.
• My skin is dry.
• I have pockmarks and acne scars.
• I get zits. Ugh. Perpetual teenager right here.
• My lips are pretty pigmented.
• 
  
• My face is round and I usually sport a double chin when I'm carrying extra weight.

That's about it. I hope I can help anyone else like myself that's completely clueless!
