Lipstick Is A Girl's Best Friend

I can't be the only little girl who grew up with a love for lipstick! No other type of makeup produces the happiness I have for lipstick.

What's not to love about it? I'm a firm believer in colors representing someone's mood. Lipstick is no exception. It takes time. Maybe you haven't been convinced why it's so great. Here are 8 reasons lipstick is awesome.

1. The Colors

There are so many colors to choose from. Pretty much any color you can think of? It's out there somewhere.

2. The Finishes

Let's see, there's glossy, satin, matte, creamy, stain, sheer...

3. The Confidence

Finding the perfect lip color can decide how the rest of your day is going to go.

4. The Effort

If you're like me, it takes a lot of patience to get it right. But the end result is worth it!

5. The Style

Holding up a compact mirror to apply your favorite shade is empowering. Wear your lipstick with pride!

6. The Boldness

You want to wear a green, black, or purple? Maybe something neon? GO FOR IT.

7. The patterns

Put some polka dots in there, maybe some stripes. WEAR IT AND OWN IT.

8. The Lasting impression

Whether or not your lipstick stains something, it can leave a mark on someone else and make you memorable.

However you wear your lipstick, it will not only make you look great, but feel great. That's what I've learned from lipstick. Having confidence and leaving a mark can be as easy as applying your favorite lipstick!

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.
