It's been years and perhaps it's been decades since the last time I took care of myself appearance-wise

@Fungirlmmm that's true too. Glad you're taking it seriously. I'm doing my best too regarding this!

@Fungirlmmm same here. I’m aging much better than my friends.

@ninalanyon I think it does matter. It's setting up a mood, a tone. Colours. It tells yourself you're a queen and deserve to be treated like one, and it aids to making choices like one.

But why it's meaningful to you, if you care to expand on this?

@elafina I'm not sure I know why. All I can say is that I feel better, more [i]me[/i], if I am prettily dressed with my earrings and lipstick on. But my face is not very feminine and I've never had the nerve to try any more makeup.

@ninalanyon I can't stand the full face makeup. I need to feel that my skin can breathe. I agree on that it feels better not being able to fully understand it.
How I explain it is about expressing ourselves ❤️

@SW-User it does but I was neglecting it, putting it into the basket of "too superficial shit for a spiritual existence"

@soulshadow try it and see...

@AlchemyFox It does, yes. I feel I wasn't taking myself seriously and that I kind of neglected my worldly appearance. I always felt beautiful and that I don't need to do anything other than being natural.
I still believe in being natural, but I want to take better care of myself now and even get more playful and expressive, more free in a way.. as if I limited myself in this "all natural all simple" ..
Still appreciating it, but there're moments for all!

@elafina I take very good care of my skin. It makes me feel good, but I haven't worn makeup in a long time. Natural does feel best, but there are some fun ways to feel expressive and caring for you 🤗

@AlchemyFox I'm beginning with simple little things with the intention to grow from there.
Makeup was never my thing either. But there're other ways!
