    MAKEUP COLLECTION & STORAGE

    If you had asked me to see my makeup collection a few years ago, I probably could have easy had 3-4 times this amount of makeup. My love of makeup started from my university days, when I was living away from home, studying nursing and found something to make me fee good about myself when…
