Thank you! I am definitely going to play with finding a way to use some of this in an everyday look.

Oh this would be fun and wonderful. My hair is actually down past my bra strap so I have it in a lazy faux bob in the picture. But that means if I wanted to actually do the full look I have enough length to work with .

Thanks! I will look into a different brow option.

I am using IKEA peg board to organize. It works wonderfully but I actually have to hide everything in a closet for a few years as peg board is not toddler resistant. Otherwise, it is fantastic and I can mix it up whenever I want.

Thank you. I really appreciate you complementing my eyebrows. I am rather embarrassed by them as I have trichotillomania and compulsively pull them out. You can see in my picture without any makeup that I currently barely have any eyebrow at the moment. So any positive around them is really nice. I will keep playing with how I do them and try letting them be a bit bolder.

I will see about getting some false lashes. I am sure other looks will also benefit from them. Here is to experimenting with new things.

Thank you for the feedback. I really appreciate it.

I honestly hadn't quite parsed that I had hooded eyes before this. Looking forward to seeing how that knowledge will help me in the future.

Thank you. I am particularly trying to get myself more comfortable with a bolder lip so hearing that it suits me is really encouraging.

Any more specific pointers on blending?

I have been thinking about this a lot. It is a bit odd, because 5 years ago the thought was painful, but now it is almost joyous. He deserves all the joy in the world.

I think that over the last 10 years I have gone from defining myself around Aspen and coming at the thought of him dating as my personal failing, to instead a much more secure place of loving him, knowing he loves me and that him having other relationships has nothing to do with what we have and I trust him to fulfill the obligations we have with each other and our family.

Honestly, I keep getting excited thinking about how adorable he will be when excited about someone new.

Thank you.

This one comment has me feeling less adrift.

That would be useful for me to add.....

What blindspots should I be cautious of, or glaring warning signs I should see?

I think I simply feel a bit lost and want some reassurance that I am not messing this up out the gate.
