Feeling a little embarrassed….
Im going to an HBCU in the fall and I’m just thinking about my social life and the culture and I’m just now realizing I don’t know how to do makeup. I am almost 18 and the most I do is mascara and eyeliner. In no way is this like a “pick me” situation because I genuinely want to learn but every-time I’m in the store, in that aisle, I just get embarrassed. Especially since I don’t want what to get. Most people would go to their mom but she never really let me get into makeup as a pre teen/teenager and I’m not sure why she never taught me ( I lowkey think it makes her uncomfortable). But I never really fought it because I never cared but now it’s graduating season and college is only 3 months away, I look at my hbcu “I got in page” and see a bunch of beautiful faces and I’m just a little worried when it comes to parties or formal events. I just feel left behind and left out because it’s something I should know how to do. Especially since my friends have been doing makeup since the beginning of High school.
Pls give a girl some advice🫰
