Ode to Makeup




This blog is an open love letter from me (Martine) to makeup. I was first introduced to makeup at the tender age of thirteen and even though husbands, boyfriends, and baby's daddies, have all fallen by the wayside, makeup has stood the test of time. Our relationship is a completely collaborative union with the only objective being to make me look fabulous at all times. We've had our ups (what did I do before MAC?) and downs (did I really think blue eyeliner would make my brown eyes blue?), but despite much trial and error, we are both totally committed to each other.

Now, don't get me wrong. In the interest of keeping America (and the world) beautiful I am more than willing to share makeup and its secrets with others. I do get a little jealous sometimes, but everytime I see the results of makeup's transformative powers on others, I get over it. Makeup has the ability to turn a dull, boring day into a colorful, fun-filled adventure. It changes to match my moods. And it never fails to improve my outlook on life (especially when looking through a pair of great false eyelashes!).

So, it is with great pride and a grateful heart that I proclaim to the universe...

Martine + Makeup

Forever...
