coffee
Allow me to extoll the virtues of caffeine in your everyday beauty benefits.
summer beauty
I have got some THINGS for you beauties that I just can’t wait any longer to share with you. Are you ready?
lipstick
At department stores, make-up artists were always putting either extremely dark hues on me or gold. I don’t know why department store make-up artists love putting gold on my lips.
gross things
I believe that you’re only as sick as your secrets, so here, for all the world to see, is the essence of my beauty editor malpractice. Forgive me, y’all, for I have sinned.
hair
What will happen if you don't "do" your hair? We'll go first!

clothes
The main thing I notice when I look back over the decade I've just graduated from, it's that I didn't know s@#% about styling myself in an attractive way.

massage
When it was done I put my clothes back on and felt befuddled and icky. I was not crying in a corner or anything, but I most definitely was not relaxed.

"Real Beauty" features and advertisements cleverly sell you products under the guise of body-positivity while actually reinforcing the idea that a woman's worth is based on the way she looks to others.
tattoo
"Omg," I thought to myself, "What if I accidentally walk out of here with a real face tattoo? What an article THAT would be!"

hair
They're cute, I guess. But they're so much wooorrrkkkk...
lesbian dating
Everyone has woken up at some point in a bed without their usual beauty products on hand. Chances are queer women will have better choices when it comes to finding something to make themselves look presentable.
fun
skin
Being angry all the time is messing up a lot of things, but it’s really messing up your skin.

trashy
Sometimes you just want sparkly limbs, crazy-long nails and three layers of slept-in eyeliner -- and there's nothing wrong with that.
stretch marks
ACTUAL LAYERS of my skin peeled away while my stretch marks remained. They were indestructible.
curls
For as long as I remember, I craved glamorous, enviable curls a la Rita Hayworth and Marilyn Monroe.
expired
Spontaneous rashes, bad color choices, and the smell of an old guy's rotten mouth.

sun damage
cute nails
Make your pedicure look like something a unicorn vomited on. You know, in a good way.
pores
Aestheticians enjoy working on me. One less than tactful lady could hardly contain her joy when she exclaimed “Your pores are HUGE. And there’s SO MUCH IN THEM.”
