Rain, Wind, Eyes, and Faces

After torrential rain, strong wind, and even some snow yesterday, and into the night, it's a chilly, but sunshiney morning here on the tallgrass prairie of southwest Missouri.

Carnations From My Daughter

I had my one-week-out follow-up appointment following the second eye surgery yesterday morning and was released to resume normal activity (except for rubbing my eyes...can't do that for a month!). No more eye sheild at night and only two more days of eye drops. (YEAH!!!) New glasses and being able to see up close as well as far away are still a few weeks away. 

I told my eye doctor that I started selling Mary Kay and asked her long it would be before I could start using eye makeup. She said I could do it now...just don't rub!!! 

Now, keep in mind, I've not worn makeup for years...decades even! ...and, not only am I completely out of practice, but am, also I think, lost in the 70's forever. LOL! I feel like a 13-year-old just starting out! Ha-ha!

Here are this morning's before and after face shots...

As you can see...I need a LOT of practice!!! My eyeliner is all over the place! 😆 

Speaking of faces, I am looking for 30 faces to help me earn my Seasonal Color Analysis certification. If you are willing to spend 5 to 10 minutes on facetime with me and be one of my faces just email or message me on Facebook Messenger (Rebecca Brown Knox). I will ask you a few questions and try to correctly determine which "season" of color families work best on you. Thanks in advance to those that are willing! 💗

Have a beautiful day and I'll be with you again soon!

"This is the day which the Lord hath made;
we will rejoice and be glad in it."
(Psalm 118:24)

Until then...

  1. I'm in Southern Illinois and we had very high winds, rain and then snow all day yesterday. Nothing stuck so that is good but it was cold. I love the lip color that you have on. Have a great day.

    1. Thank you, Lori! Nothing stuck here, either, but, yes, super cold! Thank you! The lipstick is Mary Kay's Gel Semi-Shine Lipstick in Luminous Lilac. I really like it! 💜

  2. Hello. I have not worn foundation in a very long time. I'm always going back and forth about, because being 55, I'm never satisfied with how it settles in the lines and pores. The last time I used it was 2019 and was my first and only Mary Kay product. It was the CC foundation, I believe.
    I really liked it. It had sunscreen as well. Your lip color is a very good choice on you.💐

    1. I understand, Rose. I hadn't worn foundation in decades and, yes, the CC is what I'm using and I LOVE IT! It goes on so nicely and feels so good! Thanks for the comments, compliment, and encouragement! It means a lot! Blessings! 💐
