Newly 15 and equipped with a new little tote bag that had a rainbow design made out of sequins that when you ran your finger over one way turned silver and then the other way went back to rainbow, Anna speed walked into the girls' bathroom feeling both impish and sheepish. It wasn't LIKE her to feel sheepish, especially over appearances, and it really would make the most sense to ask her dormmates for help figuring out what all these bits and bobs were[ or with Aurora...but maybe a part of her was hoping Myrtle would make an appearance and know what all these things were and then she could be taught by a ghost. Myrtle had been haunting the loos of Hogwarts forEVER now so surely she knew loads about these girlish things.
Scampering over to the sink, the Hufflepuffle unzipped the case and kind of just STARED down at the array of options. She was pretty sure she knew what it all was, she had observed mum and her older cousin apply makeup before...not to mention older girls around the common room. But it was like watching someone cast a Patronus Charm, you could watch someone do so with effortless grace and then when you went to try it yourself your wand shot right out of your hand and flung itself across the room and smacked into the wall but thankfully did not snap in half or chip or blister. She appreciated mum giving her this first makeup kit and even hand selecting a few things for her but...now what?
Pushing some of the tubes and cases around, her eyes fell on something kind of peachy and softly shiny shimmery looking. Seemed as good a place to start as anything else...but...what was it for? "...highlighter..." she read aloud and turned the tiny square compact over in her hand. There was nothing that came with it to apply it, though maybe some of those loose brushes in the bag were for that purpose, so it seemed as logical as anything else to use her finger to put it on. So...that's what she started doing, pinky finger across the tightly packed powered and then...nose? Eyes? Where? She just...kind of stared at herself in the mirror feeling overwhelmed.
"Um....Myrtle? You...you wouldn't happen to be around...would you?" she called into the echo chamber that was the girls' bathroom currently.
