Faithful @MACcosmetics girl since 2004. I have been a faithful @MACcosmetics girl for like more than 20 years. I'm 36. I started wearing Mac when I was like 14 or 15 years old. And I still remember my first Mac lipstick that I got for, um, my very first homecoming. And it's called New York Apple. And this is the one I'm wearing. Obviously not the same one from 20 years ago. That would be horrifying. But, um, some of the other things that I used to wear a lot when I was that age that have since been discontinued, not lipsticks. Um, part of that look was the eyeshadow sketch and Sushi Flower, which I remember the Mac makeup artist taught me how to use it on my cheeks and on my eyes, which was like mind blowing. As a 14 or 15 year old. But every time I wear New York Apple, I am like, I reconnect with that like 14 or 15 year old self who just like, desperately wanted to be Gwen Stefani. And, um, I am about to hit the farmer's market. I'm wearing a cute little skater dress from Levi's. And, um, I feel I feel like a little 90s bady. And I am, I am pretty stoked about that. There's kind of a closer look at it. I have it lined with Night Moth. My god, if like 14 or 15 year old me, um, had been introduced to Night Moth, that would have become my whole personality. It just would have. Um, but now, now I can, I can really live it up with my Red Apple lipstick and Night Moth lip liner.
