"You'll have to show me where to go," Hermione admits, wrinkling her nose sheepishly. Even though she's come a long way in caring for her appearance and finding what type of fashion leaves her the most comfortable, Hermione still hasn't quite learned the ropes of all the new types of makeup that are available in Darrow. It's amazing, she thinks, how much can happen over the course of a few years. Makeup might not be the first area that Hermione looked to for progress, but it's clear that it's an industry that's flourished nonetheless.

"Usually, all I wear to work is a little bit of mascara and lipstick. Which is fine, but... I don't know," she says, smiling softly. "I certainly want to make sure that I look like myself on the big day, but I don't think there's anything wrong with dressing up a little, too. So expensive makeup sounds good. Besides, I'm sure there will be plenty of events and parties where I can continue using whatever we buy."
