starting to show my age

I swear I'm not trying to fool anyone.  I'm going to be 28 this year and I have no qualms about it.  But, I see my age starting to show through. 

I don't wear make-up...but I'm starting to think that maybe I should.  Last time my mom visited, I made my way into one of the pictures with my daughter.  All I saw in that picture (besides my beautiful daughter) were the massive circles under my eyes!  So not attractive!  Thankfully I'm already married and not trying to meet a guy.  But still, make-up might be in store for my life in the not too distant future!  The problem with this...I don't really know how to wear make-up the right way.  I can do eye liner no problem, but anything else...I'm clueless!  I don't know what brands to get, what colors to get, NOTHING!  And, please tell me how you do make-up so it doesn't look like you're wearing any!  Does anyone want to be my make-up tutor?

Now, I guess make-up it the biggest issue, but there's another thing that's been poking fun at me aging for the last 7 or 8 years.  Gray...no, WHITE hair!  I kind of envy blonds because their grays, or whites, hardly show.  When you have dark hair, like ME, every single one shows its ugly face!  I go through spurts, pull the out...let the grow...pull the out, I'm getting married...Now, I think I'm back to letting them grow.  They have begun to over power me!  There are just too many to pull anymore.  So, I have decided that I am going to embrace the white hairs.  Maybe they'll look good on me?  I figure that I'll give them a few months.  After that, if I can't deal with them any more, I'll flirt with the idea of coloring my hair then.

Ah, youth.  I see you now in my child and future children!  It has come time for us to part ways, but please feel free to visit, at least once a week would be nice!
