so the first picture on the left is me when i was 14, the right is me now. the 2nd old photo is me at 15 if not late 14. the 4th one is at 16 and the rest are current. last picture is current without makeup.
i originally posted on this sub about 4 years ago from an old account asking for advice as i was DESPERATE to glow up. i lost 35 pounds, got on accutane, started tanning, learned how to lose facial fat/get rid of bloating, tinted/threaded my eyebrows into an arch shape, dyed my hair black for eye color contrast and learned how to do makeup among a few other things.
