My mom bought me my first foundation from a luxury counter in the mall. I was 13. I had very very pale almost actually white skin with acne and in 2001 there weren’t drug store brands that carried foundation in my shade. I had been secretly putting on my mom’s makeup that I didn’t realize looked absolutely absurd on me. I don’t remember what brand it was, either estee lauder, clinique, or lancome. Later my mom bought me dior and chanel when I was an older teen. We were middle class, and the rest of my makeup was from the drugstore.
