For the past three weeks, I have tried to stick to the new resolutions I set before myself for this school year. Some of those included sleeping earlier, making more friends outside my current friend group, getting my assignments done days in advance. For the most part, these resolutions seemed relatively easy because I didn't have to change my physical appearance. That is, until, I decided to wear lipstick everyday.

And not just the same old pink lipstick that rubs off after one sip of water. I'm talking about the different shades of lipstick that don't come off until you aggressively rub it off. Yep, I'm talking about the matte ones; the external lipsticks.

At first, the challenge did not seem hard at all. Actually, it was kind of exhilarating to feel beautiful by simply wearing one type of makeup product. I tried dark shades, bright red shades, nude shades and even mixed a couple just to see what it would look like.

Overall, the experience was enjoyable and something that every girl should one day try. Lipstick is usually seen as something only used for formal occasions. However, that shouldn't be the case. You should be allowed to feel absolutely beautiful regardless of what you're wearing and if you're wearing lipstick or not.

Lipstick is a bold statement.

Any one can put on lipstick. Heck, we used to do it as kids a lot. However, it takes a confident person to pull off lipstick. From wearing lipstick for more than just three days, I learned that you really need to take pride in yourself more than how you feel other people will see you.

Lipstick is something every girl should try. Who knows? Maybe it'll make you feel more cofident in yourself and your apperance.
