Prompt
"Anime-style cel-shaded illustration of a 20s influencer with shoulder-length teal hair and soft bangs, wearing an oversized cream hoodie and black biker shorts, holding a phone up for a mirror selfie while glancing toward the camera with a slightly messy “just got ready” look. Cozy bedroom setting with an unmade bed, laundry basket, and skincare bottles on a dresser, warm natural morning window light and subtle phone flash reflection, casual candid UGC vibe like a TikTok “GRWM” thumbnail."
