Makeup..whats the point?
I believe that makeup is a personal outlet for people who want to express themselves through a different medium than how they dress or what they look like. Makeup, I believe, is something that you can either abuse or treat just right (hint hint Goldilocks and The Three Bears reference). I do not wear heavy makeup everyday, in fact I rarely wear heavy makeup at all. If I wear makeup that makes me look like I covered my face in grease paint then I feel out of it, it isn't natural. That's a point I want to get to with this blog, makeup is something to enhance your natural features and make you feel confident. Michelle Phan wrote on her professional website that she thinks of makeup as another medium of art. I believe that is true, and I like to leave the dramatic and wacky makeup to the professionals, but lets face it its fun to play with crazy colors and experiment with products that you would never use in everyday life. I want anyone who reads this blog to know that the tips I mention are to help somebody feel confident if they have an imperfection that makes them self conscious. Maybe my Lauren Conrad tutorial help someone with imperfect skin get a glowing complexion. Maybe my Eyeliner post helped somebody decide what eyeliner to spend their money on, and what to skip. So getting to the point of this post, the point of makeup is to make oneself feel confident. For one person that may mean concealing a zit for another that may mean vibrant purple eyeshadow. I think that makeup reflects one's personality. So maybe the girl that wears that purple eyeshadow is crazy and fun and creative, she is reflecting that through her makeup. Makeup, I believe, has a point, but a different one to different people. I hope that this gave you all a little insight on what I think of makeup.
And don't worry this is my ONLY post about "the meaning of makeup" and the "i believe..." statements!! I will start doing other tips and FUN NOT BORING posts more this week!
Thanks for reading and be ready for more posts soon!
