I am a beauty addict.

No shit, right?

I spend entirely too much money at Sephora and Gene Juarez and… I love it. As a kid and a teenager I felt like an awkward duck; Always trying to fit in but hopelessly missing the mark. I felt ugly, strange and like I didn’t belong. Beauty and fashion are a way for me to blend in but also stand out, visibly. On a very profound level, it makes me feel normal because I can look normal but extremely polished. When I’m falling apart, nothing matters more than appearing better than okay. Fabulous, even.

For the sake of entertainment and my own sick pleasures I am going to lay my collection out for the world to see what goes into my every day presentation of myself.

Is it worth the money? From an investment standpoint, not a chance. You know what though? It makes me happy. Really happy. It feels like I can take on the world when my war paint is on and I’m ready to go, even when the world is falling apart. Okay, especially when the world is falling apart.

To me, that is worth it.
