We’re all scared of something. Like some people are scared to go skydiving or bungee jumping. Or how I’m scared to go on roller coasters, of touching animals, and bugs. You can stop laughing now.

Five Minute Friday: Red Cherry Ice
I slick on my Revlon Cherry Ice lipstick. My go-to red lipstick, bright and glittery. I use it when I need a pick-me-up, and I needed one today. It’s all my fault too.
