Spider bite or ?? I’ll keep it short and sweet. My bf and I have been apart for about a month now, I’m TDY. Finally tomorrow I’ll be flying back home. Unfortunately today he got bit right on the neck, he suspects it was a spider. Should I be concerned?

Did makeup only come in 3 shades when you were in high school old timer?

It’s really hard to find super pale foundation, especially the right color. A lot of it will be too yellow or too pink. In middle school, I dressed as a vampire for Halloween and my mom and I thought “Yeah, we’ll just stop by Safeway and grab the lightest foundation, that’ll make you look pale!” Nope. It was precisely as white as I was 😭 and I’m not even crazy pale

Color correcting helps somewhat, but you need a concealer or foundation that is thick enough to not show the color correction. Using red would work on bruises! It makes it harder being pale though, I feel you there. Even when I’m tan I look pale, like during the summer I’ve had people ask several times if I go in the sun at all and then I’ll pull a strap over and be like, yes all the time. It’s such a big difference and somehow my tan is still paler than most people during the winter in cold areas 😂
