Skyglow and faith

Little winged eyeliner

 Today I put on thin winged eyeliner for the first time in a very long time.

      I've never been a huge makeup person, but I got excited learning to put on eyeliner specifically when I was younger. (This plus the most nude/my-lip-colour lipstick I could find, on days when I wanted an extra boost, lol.)

      It has been about long, long time since the last time, but I feel like wearing it again today ^_^

Using: MONY no.3 brown-black waterproof pen eyeliner.

      The finest and most precise I've ever used and it makes the most subtle, tiniest wings you want. I get it off yesstyle. 

       I like to use this and clear eyebrow gel (eyebrow gel even with nothing else) to look more like I'm making the expressions I'm actually making.

I think I stopped with the winged eyeliner normally around that time grief took over. And I tried to do it sometimes after, but except on special occasions it felt forced.

      It was a happy thing I did before, and there was no more happy. 

      But today... It felt natural.

~~

      ...today a bit of old, a bit of new, a bit of love, a bit of nature, a bit of comfort and a bit of confidence.

      A bit of happy and sad and other less clear things.

      Some stuff sucks but there is also some happy, there are still good gifts, and beyond the visible I see myself when I look in the mirror today.
