Make Up Doesn't Define You






Make up. Although a wonderful thing, pressure surrounds women today telling them without it they are not good enough.

Today's society tell us that without makeup we aren't pretty and yet certain remarks such as 'Why you don't trust women'. We get knocked for wearing makeup and knocked for not wearing it. We get called ugly without and fake with. There is no in between. Which is why something need to change.

I don't have perfect skin or anywhere near it. I suffer from hyperpigmentation and scarring. The odd blemish will pop up in its unwanted time. Although I tend to hide these flaws with makeup you will see me out without makeup. Both are fine.

Makeup is a way of expression, and many feel more comfortable with it on. You can accentuate your features and like myself I enjoy wearing makeup to experimenting with different looks. But I do also feel comfortable in going out with my bare face. We should not let those people who call women 'fake' for wearing makeup make us change our appearance. Wear makeup for yourself not others who want to change you.

Not wearing makeup is a blessing. Walking out in the fresh air with a bare face. Pressure surrounds women today telling them that without makeup they are ugly or spotty. Our imperfections are what make us beautiful and unique. So why apply makeup to cover those? Anyone and Everyone has their own scaring and uneven skin tone, we should not feel ashamed of it. If you are happy with your skin show it off to the world.

"My face is built up of pieces of those that came before it"

Whether you wear makeup or not, you are beautiful. Don't let others talk change yourself, stay true to who you are.

  3. I'm so glad you have said this! It look me a long time to not wear any makeup in public, but it's good to let your skin breather sometimes! It's important more girls realise this. We all have imperfections, it's just learning to cope with them :)

  5. Amazing post, I admire you for writing this. Recently I've become a more comfortable in my own skin and it's great. I do agree with you that we seem to geg judged whether we wear makeup or not which shouldn't be the case as makeup is a form of art and an expression, people shouldn't have to feel judged x
