I think one presumably positive effect of the pandemic on me is that I'm not so concerned about wearing makeup in public. If I go grab a beer and a snack outdoors someplace, I may put on a little makeup, but if I forget, I'm like, "Eh, whatever." And I used to always apply it before going to a therapy session in person, and I did apply for maybe the first virtual session, then switched to just lipstick (I have rather ghostly lips), then lately haven't been applying it at all. Like, eh, whatever.
I suspect I'll go back to applying some eventually, as I have rather pale skin and worry I'll look sickly. But probably more minimalist than I used to.
Also, I have now accepted food deliveries while not wearing a bra, which probably sounds really silly, but it's something I used to be really neurotic about, like asking H to answer the door because I wasn't wearing a bra. (I do put on a bra for Zoom therapy sessions, though one time I started one without, then was like, "Ack, hold on a second" and put one on in an area where I was definitely off-screen).
