The Beginning.
I left my job last Friday and I'm not going back.
It's partly because I'm moving to France in a month, but it's also partly because I'm ill. My life is a cycle of sleeping, being sick, taking drugs that stop me from being sick and then going back to sleep. It's really boring, and really unglamorous.
Since I became more ill 2 years ago, I have taken comfort in make up and clothes and all things skincare. One of the perks of 'good' days - when I have energy and feel well enough to do things - is being able to take time to choose an outfit that makes me feel pretty and put on a full face of make up. And on bad days I can slap on a face mask, read beauty blogs and watch hours of youtube videos of people discussing fashion and make up. There is never a day when it doesn't make me feel even a little bit better but I don't get out much I don't get to show off my favourite clothes or elaborate eye looks.
So this is my space to do that. I can pretend I'm being productive and share the thing that makes me happy with other people who share my appreciation for floaty dresses and cut creases and blending brushes.

About Me
Oh hey, I'm Anna. I'm 20, studying French at university and living with chronic illness. I get a lot of comfort from dressing up, putting on make up and trying out new skincare, and I want to share that with you here.
