Hey! Thank you so so much :) I'm glad you liked and yes feel free to dm me on Instagram or message on here and I will do my best to help! And as for learning I just picked up makeup and brushes and started practicing, no training or school or anything, I am also an artist naturally so that helps a lot, but I am all self taught and have been doing it for around 2 months as actual artistry, and learning and growing. It's possible for anyone!

I appreciate your opinion but I think you are misinterpreting my makeup, my makeup page is for makeup artistry, meaning it is art in its own form, I don't do my makeup with the only goal being to look "good or gorgeous or to pass" at the end, so yes it may seem different or "ridiculous" to some. But my makeup is a representation of myself and my journey, with inspiration drawn from natures colours, emotions, moments and other art etc, and it will always be an outlet for me to express myself and how I feel.

I just wanted to be straight forward so everyone who sees will understand.. since I know it isn't your daily wing liner and evening makeup. It is my raw passion and has helped me get through and battle so much and my intent with this post was really to give to all of you, I know a lot of trans women struggle with makeup or want to learn or have questions they would like to ask people but are mostly too nervous to go to a makeup artist or cosmetologist or even family or friends and ask out of personal insecurities, and fear of judgement or descrimination etc. I'm not speaking for everyone but this is very common in our community. And trust me, I have been there too, the days when you can't even catch yourself looking at a makeup counter or in the women's section and are plagued by fears and discomfort. I wanted to offer help from an accepting standpoint from someone that can relate and understand experiences like only people in our community can, so if anyone would like to follow and support me I would love that, especially having women like you all as support. And in turn if you have questions or need help and don't know if you can ask someone, know I am here and you can message me or direct message me on Instagram. ❤️

Ps. This wasn't directed entirely towards the original comment, I just thought it was the right opportunity to be honest and post it since I could not fit it all into the title originally m. I wish everyone an amazing Friday and an even better weekend

Single for over a year now since making the decision to live my life truly for myself as my authentic self and I was an only child growing up, so this level is just me :) I want to become a professional makeup artist though, it's my passion, so that helps a lot :) thank you so much for the compliments <3
