​     All throughout my middle school years and in some of my high school years, I was extremely blessed to have relatively clear skin. I seriously took advantage of it now that I think about it. Part of the reason was because I didn’t wear a lot of make-up during that time. In fact, the only times I wore any sort of make-up was for extravagant reasons (i.e. high school dances, quinces, sweet sixteen’s, etc.)

​     Pink has never been a particularly favorite color of mine. Give me any shade of blue, green, or grey and I was a happy girl. But no pink. I can credit that to my tom-boy upbringing as a kid, and while I don’t hold the same disdain for it I did as a kid, it is not my first color of choice.
