Age doesn't define us. I started to gradually remove things with makeup. I remember that I first started by not using foundation because it made me feel like a mask. I also started adding water to my routine because sometimes my skin looked dry and I saw a huge difference even after drinking 8 glasses of water for a whole week. Then there were days where I only brush my eyebrows and wore a simple lipstick. I gradually took control of the "less is more" attitude. The point is not to stop doing it at all but rather that I learned to be able to feel comfortable with or without it. And I feel that now the decision depends entirely on me and not on the fear of others' prejudices.
