Donna also convinced me that I should be a brunette!! I've been blonde since I was 16! I now know the science behind why it doesn't work for me, what my undertone is (and how to train your eye to see undertones rather than surface tones, which is what most of us makeup artists do!)
SHE'S NOT CALLED THE BEAUTY PRODIGY FOR NOTHING! SO YES, THIS HAS BEEN LIFE-CHANGING AND REMARKABLE."
