Recently I have written some posts that contain advice , I do this because if I could go back in time and tell the younger me some of the things I know now than life would be a lot simpler. I have experienced name calling and insults about the way I look , not so much recently but when I first started High school I got allot of grief and I'm not going into detail about what these people said but I can tell you it gave me absolutely no confidence as a Teenager and still now I don't have allot of confidence. If you compliment Someone there going to feel happy and good about them selves in that moment of time , if you call someone ugly they are going to remember it for the rest of there lives. So today I thought I would write about why I personally wear make-up.
It hasn't even been a year yet since I have started wearing make-up which I find most odd because I am now obsessed with wearing , buying and reading reviews on it. I remember walking down the corridor at school and noticing how many girls wear make-up and me thinking why don't I do that ? The idea repulsed me of putting make up on my face but then my Aunt brought me some make-up for a present one year and my mum brought me a couple of bits from N07 for Christmas I Started experimenting. I realised it was a way of hiding things or distracting me from my insecurities , I couldn't hide my legs I hated but I could hide the disgusting spots on my chin. I then discovered the power of mascara , my eyes being something I nether really minded and the product making them look bigger.
The reason I wear make-up is because I think it enhances natural features and I like taking pride in my appearance. I also wear it because it makes me feel good about my self. I wear it nearly every day the only exception is if I'm only at home with family , I would nether go to school without it on. Some people might say that's ridiculous but it makes me more happy in my own skin.
Being in a big group of mostly girls its easier and more acceptable to me to apply make-up , this may sound sexist and believe me I'm not trying to sound it at all I am a big feminist. From allot of 'over-hearing' from conversations it seems like some boys and others feel that people are fine the way they are. The problem with this is that people are constantly judging books by the covers so who can blame people wanting to make them selves look and feel nice. I wear make-up because I feel comfortable in it and more relaxes , It would be interesting to see what other people think,
have a great day :)
