Hello! Thanks for dropping in!
My name is Paden and I enjoy makeup. For me, it's about artistry and self-care. When I started wearing makeup years ago, I was having trouble defining myself as a person. Makeup helped me feel like I fit better in my own skin. It was something I had a lot of control over. I got to wear I was wearing it every day, experimenting with it.
I reached a point in my adult years where people would ask me to teach them how to do makeup. Why? I like to keep it simple so I can be fairly consistent. One particular friend kept encouraging me to start a beauty channel on YouTube because my makeup is, in her words, "middle school friendly." After discussing it more, I realized she meant that I don't complicate it. I use inexpensive products, I don't like taking a lot of time to do my makeup, and being an amateur with presenting lessons makes me more approachable.
Don't get me wrong, beauty bloggers on YouTube, with all those skills and a perfect finish, are absolutely impressive. Most of us don't have that skill though. And that's okay! That's why having amateurs who just enjoy makeup and are willing to make blogs and videos is a wonderful thing. I'm here to add to that community.
I hope you enjoy my content and perhaps find amusement in any videos I make, because I am terrible on camera and have zero video editing skills. Everything will be candid.
~Thanks for joining me,
P.Constantine
