Make-up is my super power

One of my favorite parts of the day is when is when I do my make-up in the morning and the moment right after that. It takes me 5 minutes, nothing super special - just foundation, eyeliner, mascara, lipstick. However, it makes me feel powerful and ready to take on the day, instantly lifts up my energy level and makes me want to smile.

Doing. my make-up became an even more important daily ritual when the pandemic hit, we started working from home and it became even more critical to find things that ground us, lift our mood, and make us feel in control. I felt like after I put my make up on, it will be a normal day, a good day, nothing bad will happen, I am more in control. So it is one of the most important things I do every day - I make my bed and I do my make up, I don’t miss a day doing that. And those simple actions never miss making me feel powerful, in control, ready to go out in the world and shine. What are your super powers these days?
