Plot

She's a people pleaser. She's insecure. She wants nothing more than to have clear skin. Her life changes drastically when she wishes on a fallen eyelash and her wish is granted: she has the clearest goddamn skin she's ever had. When word gets out that Anagha has magic eyelashes, she's exploited for them by her school, her community, and eventually the government. She battles the weight of the world with the weight of being a middle schooler.
