Episode 11 of Becoming American Social

(*Featuring a special guest! Spoiler alert: find him on youtube @thelaidofffounder)

I used to never leave the house without makeup...I'd never even let someone I was staying with see me without makeup.

And I've put on makeup before going out in public every day since I was in 8th grade.

I think I've left the house without showering more times than I've left without putting on makeup.

So this challenge...whew, was filled with anxiety.

Day 11 challenge was to go out in public with absolutely no makeup on...not even concealer, which is one of my staples.

At first, it was hard to look at people I passed by...almost as if they wouldn't be able to see me if I didn't look at them.
