Programmes like The ugly side of beauty are partly responsible for triggering off memories of myself when i was younger and also the question:
Are we more attractive, confident etc when we are wearing a face full of makeup ?
Do we as beauty bloggers contribute to young girls feeling insecure about there looks if they dont have the in product or wearing this months must have items ?
I don't wear makeup constantly but i do feel more confident when i am wearing makeup. However i don't see this makes me an insecure person, in fact i think I'm quite confident.
I think its just like a man putting on a business suit which makes him feel smart. I imagine its a similar feeling of added confidence.
When i was younger i would never leave the house without makeup on but as i have got older i am a lot more comfortable with myself and i actually love the feel of freshly washed skin. I enjoy taking my makeup off at the end of the day. My friends have all seen me without makeup although it's rare i dont have a little something on my face.
Another thing that really annoys me is when people say to me you don't need to wear all that makeup. I know i don't need to wear it. Nobody needs to wear it but i like it, i enjoy trying new looks, i think i look nicer with makeup on and its my face, my choice.
Makeup is an expression of who we are. I don't turn around and say to them well you do need some makeup on? Although sometimes i would like to ha.
Anyway my challenge is for my lovely fellow bloggers to BARE ALL. I mean just take a little photo without any make up on. ( Shock Horror )
For some of you it will be easy but for most of us i think it's a little bit scary so i will be interested to see who? if anybody will participate.
The rules are as follows:
1. Take a photo of yourself with a Bare face and post it on your blog.
2. Write a few sentences about how you feel doing this challenge.
3. comment here and leave a link to your post as i am really interested in reading your thoughts.
So here we go:
This is me. I feel slightly apprehensive about this post i don't dislike myself without makeup but i just prefer how i look with makeup.
Will people think this challenge is a good idea or will they be horrified at the thought of people seeing them in this way?
