I think I may be in denial about how old I look. When I'm at the store purchasing a bottle of wine and I don't get carded, I think "Wow. You're just going to let this incredibly underage looking person pass on through?? It's your ass, lady."
Then a few things snapped me back into reality:
Louis informed me that I needed a time machine in order to look like my business card picture again. (Jerk)
A bagger at Kroger called me ma'am.(Jerk)
I discovered I'm 13 years older than my adult cousin's girlfriend. (How is that possible when I'm only 21?)
I was talking to someone who was too young to know who Bell Biv Devoe was.
"You know, BBD? Poison?"
Nope.
"You never trust a big butt and a smile?"
Nope.
"Smack it up flip it rub it down OH NOOOOOOOs?"
Now you just sound gross.
Anyway, I digress. One of the first things to happen to skin as it ages is a loss of radiance. That dewy, rosy, youthful look you had at 20? Yeah, not so much at 30.
Enter radiance powder.
I bought Mark. Glowdacious Illuminating Powder for $12.
I brushed it on my face, neck, and chest and it gave me a healthy, glowy, youthful look. It's not a deep bronze, so I didn't have this weird unnatural tan in February. It just made me look healthy.
The only thing I didn't like was the brush it came with. It put it on a little heavy and streaky, so I used a kabuki brush instead.
I'd highly recommend it, especially in these drab winter months.

I have this experience regularly since I work at a Jr High. Coworkers and I are constantly making jokes and references the kids are too young to get. (But sometimes they are familar with the remake--even sadder.)
you had me at BBD....hahahahaha. shew, i needed that today.
Are you ready to get jealous? I saw BBD and New Edition in concert. It.was.awesome.
Interesting! Thanks for the tip. I'd love more of these....30 isn't looking too great on me. ;)
I laughed out loud at the BBD convo. Hilarious.
the next generation terrifies me.
Boyz II Men, ABC, BBD, MMMMMMHMMMMM!
When people call me ma'am, I just want to lose my shit too.
Um, I will be needing to buy that powder pronto! I had someone offer to take my groceries out to my car for me {shitty, shitty day}, which made me wonder do I look pregnant or just really freaking old? Damn those little high school Kroger jerks!
And BBD, freaking A-Mazing, still have their tape (even though I don't think we own a cassette player) hahaha
