A couple months ago I decided I was fed up with looking absolutely #flawless immediately after finishing my makeup, only to have it all slide off halfway through my workday. I’ve got oily skin, and at about lunchtime, my nose and the cheek area near it would get so shiny.

My obsession with makeup has grown significantly this past year. I started a subscription to Ipsy and I’m following at least five beauty bloggers on Instagram. I’m becoming that girl.
