User @magical_jesska said:
"Love your smile. It's a process, and you're definitely getting there. Also, you need to teach me how to apply lashes, because, wow! That's something I can't do."
User @GG advised:
"Watch Uche Natori's YouTube videos and buy exactly what she tells you to buy. Don’t freestyle. Check with the staff at stores for your perfect colour/shade."
