Brown people and black people and red people swarmed through our great halls, until those who were white looked simply faded-out human beings beside them.

For me, it's really important to take care of my skin. Especially because when I see someone, and they're just so fresh and beautiful, you always notice their skin first. So having a really good skin-care regimen is a must. I just wish I would have started taking care of my skin earlier!
