Weekend Challenge and the word “absence”
and for Gerry & Sue’s Weekly Prompts Wednesday
Challenge and the word “embellishment.
This is my response.

She is a stunning woman, a natural beauty. The absence of makeup or other embellishment does nothing to detract from her charm. In fact, it only enhances her loveliness. Hers is an inner glow which cannot be diminished.

Oh, this is so relatable, Nancy … my Carole used very little make-up, she inner beauty and delightful personality that required no further embellishment …
