Why I Fell In Love With Makeup

I mean who doesn't love make up?? There's all these pretty brushes, eye-shadow palettes, and lipsticks!

Look at how pretty these colors are:


And how soft these makeup brushes look:


I mean come on doesn't that look like just a bunch of fluffiness on your face??

But besides them looking pretty and being soft I love makeup because I love the way it lets me express myself. It makes me happy how one day when I'm feeling sassy I can do an intense make up look, and the next day when I'm feeling cute and flirty I can do a more simple look.

I really started getting into make up when I was in middle school, and oh let me tell you it was not pretty!! Lord I didn't know what in the world was going on. Back then they really didn't have Youtube videos to show you how it's really supposed to be done.

But when I was in 5th grade i think, my grandmother gave me this small Lancome pallete. Which had a bronzer in it (which i thought was foundation and put it all over my face) and a blush and some eyeshadows. and i didn't know how to use any of it. I put the bronxer all over my face and i swear i looked like a burnt orange. But looking back at it, it was hilarious.

A lot of people don't actually know i really enjoy watching and doing make up. Sometimes i can be really shy and this right here is breaking out of my comfort zone and I'm really excited to share my opinion on make up and certainly a lot of other stuff!

Here is some of my favorite make up looks


this is one of my FAVS because its just really simple and its more of a natural "no make up kind of look."


Also i LOVE LOVE this one because fall is here and this is more of a fall look and this look has such a bold lip which i just love to death. (Also she is one of my favorite You-tubers laura88lee.)

You can do so many things with make up, not just wearing it everyday and on your face.People can do Halloween costumes with make up or use it on their body. A lot of people like it because you can do special effects with make up. They can create bruises and blood and broken bones, etc.

But i just love it because its just one of those things that's never is going to go away or leave or go out of popularity. They're always coming out with new stuff to put on your face like highlighters and contouring and a billion other things.

There's also a new color coming out in almost anything. There isn't' one shade of lipstick the exact same as another one ever. They can be very similar but not the same. That's why i love it is because there is never the one thing same as the other, an example would be lipsticks. You have pinks, reds, browns, purples, muaves, and they're all not going to be all the same color within their own color. I just think that it's just amazing.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
