I believe that beauty comes from what is inside us, but that doesn’t mean that we can’t enhance what is on the outside as well. Taking care of ourselves is one of the most important things we can do…
We owe it to ourselves to enhance our inner beauty by making sure we are wearing the right makeup that suits our personality and our skin tone, that we follow the best beauty regimen for our skin so that we can continue to look and feel as young as we are at heart. Taking proper care of our hair is equally as important, because having a bad hair day can affect even the most confident of people. I remember about 15 years ago I decided to cut my hair pretty short and dyed it pretty dark brown. No sooner had I walked out of the salon I regretted it. The saddest part is that I was leaving town the next day and couldn’t get back in for 2 weeks 🙁 . I don’t tell you this so you won’t try new things, because there have been plenty of times that I have done funky and fun hair styles, but the brown, that just wasn’t me, and I felt kind of yucky and self conscious.
I love natural beauty, I believe in a little is just enough – unless it’s for a special occasion where you really want to make a statement. I make sure that my makeup suits me, I prefer to wear concealer over foundation, and I typically look pretty natural, with maybe just a light dusting of eyeshadow and liner. I never go without mascara (my lashes are so fair that I don’t look like I have any unless I wear it) and my favorite makeup item is always the lipstick…
Whether you love to wear more or less than me, it doesn’t matter because we are unique after all…
Staying true to who you are, but not being afraid to make the most of what you have, that’s why I am writing this blog post. We live in a world where we see what others do and think that it means we have to do that too. Not so…we should only do things we are comfortable with.
I have also see many people commenting or posting on social media about procedures, enhancements etc. that they don’t approve of, or that they would never do. Their opinions are fine – because they are just that…their opinions. It doesn’t matter what the topic is, there are always going to be people on either side of the fence when it comes to making the most of your beauty.
Your beauty is your beauty – no one else’s! If you want to wear some red lipstick, wear some fishnets to feel sexy – you go girl!! If you prefer to be more understated, that is totally fine too.
Just make sure whatever you are doing, you are doing it for YOU and not because someone else thinks you should or you’re worried what others might think.
Now we’ve got that out of the way…you can shop some fun makeup that I found, some things I love, and see if they work with whatever it is that makes you feel the best – especially check out the Stila glitter eyeshadow liquids…they’re so fun and amazing (click the links below).
