Beauty Quote by Megan Stalter
“The first beauty memory I have is that I was really nervous about it. It's not that I wasn't allowed to wear makeup, but I remember that literally the day I got my period, my mom took me out to buy makeup. Which, looking back, I think is probably weird, but it was sweet.”
