Here's to foundation
for covering up my blemishes
and making them unnoticeable
to anyone but me

Here's to blush
the light pink pastel color
perfectly brushed on my cheeks
as if they were kissed by a daisy

Here's to eyeliner
for emphasizing my eyes
with thick black lines
of liquid ink or pencil tips

Here's to mascara
which turns my eyelashes
into perfect butterfly wings
that flutter when I blink

Here's to eye shadow
that changes from day to night
from light pink to black
to work with my eyeliner and mascara
in mysterious ways

Here's to makeup
that makes me sparkle
and improves my confidence
that buries my blemishes
and emphasizes my eyes

You are my companion
