Hello and welcome to Beauty Canvas.  My name is Trinh.  I have many hobbies but makeup and skincare have been my constant obsession for the past 15 years or so.  Whenever I am sick or just feel blah, makeup is a great mood lifter.  When I am frustrated, I go and play with swatches and my problem drift away, even if just for a moment.  At the end of a long day, sitting down and layering my skincare is a therapeutic ritual.  Need I say more?   Btw, I pick that photo to show you my everyday style...the light hand, no makeup makeup, with an occasional bold lips. I have an Instagram account beautifulcanvas80 that I post almost daily, I hope you will follow me there.  If you're here from IG, hi IG friends 😉
