Feeling good in your own skin - I challenge you!
Hey there,
I hope your
all keeping well,
today I wanted to do a post on 'feeling good in your own
skin'. I want my blog to be about feeling good about yourself. I know I talk
about make-up and beauty a lot of the time but as much as I love make-up
and trying out new products and looks, I don't wear make-up every day as I
don't want to become too reliant on it. Don't get me wrong Make-up is
brilliant and its great to wear it, but a break from it has its advantages.
“Consider the fact that maybe…just maybe…beauty and worth aren't found in a makeup bottle, or a salon-fresh hairstyle, or a fabulous outfit. Maybe our sparkle comes from somewhere deeper inside, somewhere so pure and authentic and REAL, it doesn't need gloss or polish or glitter to shine.” -Mandy Hale
A
recent British survey found that the average woman spends a about a
year and three months of her life applying make-up. Over a YEAR, all the things
that could have been done with that time.Not only that, but going without
make-up helps your skins health and
clear up much quicker. Makeup is toxic, and anything you put on your skin will
be absorbed by your body. Mainstream makeup companies use chemicals that are
thought to cause cancer and are treated as toxins by the body.
So I challenge
you go out of your comfort zone, go one day without make-up even if you just
start by wearing lighter coverage foundation, or going bare faced on a Sunday
to the shop. Challenging yourself like this will make you more confident. The
first time might be hard but go for it, it will become easier. Beauty comes
from within; you'll feel better about yourself and start to appreciate more
things in life. Then the whole make-up process will be more enjoyable, it won’t
be something you'll feel you have to.
So
love yourself and accept this challenge with me and encourage others
If this post
helps one person, it will have been worth it.
Leave a comment telling me if you'll do this too.
