Eyeliner has been the extent of my makeup use over the past couple of years (with an experimental foray into lipstick here and there). I started wearing eyeliner more regularly over the past year, when I started teaching -- it made me feel a little bit more grown up. It also felt like a way of visually demarcating my professional space and time from my non-work life. Next makeup goal: reproduce Nia Long’s lipstick look in Love Jones!
