Very Short Make Up

Woman wakes up, puffy-eyed, possibly having cried. She has a cup of coffee. She takes a shower. Gets dressed. She stares in the mirror as she applies her make up. Her face transforms as the lightness of the foundation covers the emotions she is barely managing. She begins to appear happy. Then, as she is applying some finishing touches, a tear betrays her real mood. Her eyes mist. She sets her mouth and the line hardens. She breaks the fourth wall. She applies a bright colored lipstick. The tears are gone. She gets up, puts on a jacket, shoes. Walks out door.
