Hi! My name is Alex...

[alexp]

and I've just joined these forums!

It's been a few years since I've been an active member on any message boards and I kind of missed the camaraderie. Recently I joined Birchbox and upon googling to find information about past boxes and things like that I stumbled across Makeup Talk. I found the conversations about tracking their boxes and guess what was in them addicting. I haven't branched out much further on the site but I'm sure now that I've joined I will!

For more basics about me: I'm a 20-something office worker with a dream to get her master's abroad (England to be specific). I've never been much into hair and make up being a wash and air dry and only wearing make up for special occasions kind of girl. However, I've decided it is about time I changed that. The past few months I've been reading up and watching YouTube videos and am trying to ease myself into this world of beauty!

Any recommendations of beginner type information (that's adult friendly) would be much appreciated! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
