If you're not a makeup artist, and you just try to go for the big looks, it just gets the best of you.
I could never work out how to shave my top lip without cutting myself.
Eyeliner is a lifelong thing. You'll never get it perfect.
Corsets were a challenge in 'Belle;' fake nails tripped me up in 'Blackbird.' Guess I'm not a mani type of girl!
I love make-up so much, but I'm a bit rubbish at skincare; I'm really disloyal and never stick to one thing.
My hair and I had a really bad argument. She was being sprayed with alcohol and burnt with irons. She was being over processed and yanked and pulled by weave strings and suffocated by glue. She told me if I didn't straighten up and fly right that she was leaving.
The early bird might catch the worm, but I bet it also needs a ton of under eye concealer
When I was 13, I began relaxing my hair, and that meant when I turned 18 it began to crack and fall off, and when I began anchoring, I had short, stubbly pieces of hair. And trying to report in San Francisco with fog meant my hair swelled.
I'm not a big eye makeup girl unless there's a professional doing it - otherwise I look like I have two black eyes!
I used to put on spray tan, like, three times a day, and it just looked like there was a terrible accident in my bed at all times... it looked like a crime scene.
There's something brave and touching about game girls of all ages keeping themselves smart in hard times - one thinks of those wonderful women during World War II drawing stocking seams in eyebrow pencil up the back of legs stained with gravy browning because nylons were so hard to get hold of.
I think that makeup can be challenging, especially when you are younger.
When I was younger, it was harder for me to find a black eyeliner that would actually show up on my skin. Being a dark-skinned woman, when you find something that actually shows up on your face, you love it even more.
I've always struggled with having frizzy hair, and it doesn't really cooperate the way I want it to.
Mascara can definitely be one of the hardest parts of the beauty routine. Nothing is worse than when you are applying your mascara, and you've worked an hour on the most flawless blended eye shadow, and with one slip of the finger, your mascara is all over your face.
