Showing my illness who's boss FOTD

Hi all,

I decided not to let my illness rule me anymore so I thought I'd try and get back into the habit of doing FOTDs. My gorgeous filigree bat earrings are by MoonMaiden on eBay (aka GlitterIsMyCrack beauty blogger). On the subject of my illness, my doc finally set the ball rolling with my referral to a specialist! At last! In the meantime, I'm going to try a homeopathic remedy as conventional medicines aren't doing the job I need them to do.

Products used:
Face:
-Usual primer, foundation, concealers, powders and contour product
-MAC Desert Rose blush and
-Missha Sweet Line blusher in Shimmering Snow.
