BEAUTY IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER

BEAUTY IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER

           Most of my teenage years I was a tomboy, but getting married changed the way I feel about myself and made me more conscious about my looks. Also my sister-in-law, who would always look so pretty and made up, was one of the people who stirred the interest in me for the makeup, which with time evolved into a deep passion and admiration to the power of colors and brush . 
           When it comes to beauty, I am not type of person who is willing to spend hours on my makeup and hair, I was never and wont' be ever this kind of girl. I am not saying that it's wrong, it's just not who I am, I guess I am too lazy when it comes to hairdos and makeup. I just like quick, simple yet effective beauty transformations. Simplicity and easiness, plus good quality versus quantity is something I strongly believe in.
        One thing I've learned, the health and beauty of my skin comes first before any makeup, when one has great skin, the makeup is just an enhancement of existing beauty. But first and foremost, the beauty is from the inside.If you believe that you are beautiful, every time you are looking in the mirror, you will see a beautiful girl. You will see a confident girl who is content and finds the will and strength to move on.
          If you think you are not pretty enough, get close and look into the mirror, smile. What do you see? Your eyes, deep and  infinite pools of mystery.  Eyes are one of the most important feature on our face, if they are twinkling from joy, the whole face lights up, if you are sad, the face changes its appearance. Eyes reflect our own well being, they are the mirror to our soul. The beauty starts with the eyes. Make them glow with happiness and confidence, do not put yourself down, thus planting the seeds of doubt, it will drag you down, taking you to dark places. 

          The way you think about yourself, that's exactly the way you will see yourself. The way you perceive yourself, the way other people will look at you. If you think you are not pretty, that's exactly how you will feel every time you look at yourself, but the moment you start looking at yourself positively, step by step your confidence will rise, and you will understand that "yes, maybe I have some flaws, yes maybe there are some facial features that I am not comfortable with, but I know I am beautiful and unique, that's the way God created me, and I feel empowered by the way I look. I am positive, I am beautiful, I am a woman, and I can make a difference". That's where the true beauty comes from first.

(DO NOT FORGET THAT EVEN THE MOST GORGEOUS WOMAN FEEL UNCERTAIN WITH THEIR OWN BEAUTY, it's all in our head, reset yourself and be happy with your looks).

          If one doesn't see herself as a pretty girl, makeup won't make her feel that way. Make up should enhance what we already know is beautiful. Makeup brings diversity to our beauty. It is one of the way a woman communicates and expresses herself with people around her. Today I feel sophisticated, I wear dark lipstick, tomorrow I want to be playful, I wear pink lipstick. Today I want to look sexy, I wear smoky eye, tomorrow I want to be elegant, I wear cat eye. We should seek makeup for the right reasons, to intensify our beauty.

On this note, I welcome all of you to my blog. Quite honestly I did not intend to write so much, but I know that a lot of women struggle with this issue.  So let the wheel of change to spin, bringing positive fruit in our lives, and lives of people around us. Let's spread some beauty and positivism.

Be happy. Stay pretty.

Sincerely,


Lena
