You use dialogue well to drive home the different emotional responses to the make-up misadventures that befall you/your MC. We see a lovely character arc from experiencing sheer embarrassment, to being mildly annoyed, and finally caring very little for make-up, instead recognising that less is more, and the au natural look is quite flattering. You/your MC realise(s) that being a mom brings perspective. Your opening sentence cuts off mid-sentence but aside from that, your piece is interesting with more than a little depth.
Thank you for sharing a story from your life with The Ink Well.
Thanks, fixed the opening sentence
