Week 33

After seeing Kara's post a few weeks ago, daring her readers to take a self-portrait without make-up, I decided I would make this one of my 52 week photos. 

Now Kara is just adorable and has this great 18 year old young, dewy, innocent, peaches & cream complexion, so you can trust me when I say that I, a forty year old woman, who has not always taken the best care of her skin, AND who has worse break-outs now than when she was a teenager (CAN someone please explain that one? grrrrrr), was very apprehensive about doing this particular photo, but decided to just go for it. 


Decided while I was at it, I'd just go for the whole hair-in-a-towel, straight-out-of-the-shower look.  I mean if you are going to do this, why not go the whole way right!? 

Luckily the odd overhead+natural light from the window cast a nice glow which hopefully helps hide some of my flaws in this unedited, naked shot. :)

Very beautiful!! All my pictures are makeup free, I never wear it because I'm a tomboy and don't know how to work with makeup. LOL :)
