MAKEUP

Hi, so I just wanted to talk about make-up really, everything I like, when I started wearing it, what brands I use etc. So I started wearing make-up when I was around 13 (very young I know). Anyway, I started of wearing just a bit of eyeliner, then I bought mascara and then lipgloss. I never used to wear a lot, I wore it pretty natural, but as time went by I couldn't go a day without it. I thought I was so ugly and gross in school days, I still have a lot of self confidence issues which is why I wear a lot of makeup on a daily basis now. Anyway, I discovered eye shadow a little while later, I used the same khaki green eye shadow EVERYDAY :/ I wasn't a pro those days guys jheez! I then branched to a duo eye shadow from J.lO's then range, it was a light brown matte colour and a beige. I he used the beige up to my brown and the brown for my lid, and this was kind of my look from 14-15. Random thought, I don't know if anyone else remembers those roller ball lipglosses you used to get and the gloss was so runny and gross. I used to buy mine from New Look, I had like a thousand. So over time I started experimenting with different colour eye shadows, blusher and foundation.(I started wearing foundation when I was about 16-17)I wore a LOT of Rimmel make-up back then. I watched a tons of Youtube videos, QueenOfBlendingMUA was my fave I used to love her! I did have quite a natural talent for make up but did build a lot more talent with practice. I loved learning how to blend eye shadows together. So it was only about 2 years ago I started buying Mac, I never used to buy expensive make-up because I thought it wasn't worth it blah blah blah (So uneducated) but buying Mac make up was the best thing I ever did, it's amazing. The eye shadows for me are one of their best products, simply because there is NO fallout. I can't stand when you're doing makeup and there's bits of it all under your eye when you've already done your foundation :( I do use a lot of Sleek eye shadow pallets simply because they're more cost effective and the colours are amaze, although you do get fallout with Sleek eyeshadow. I use Sleek and Mac lipsticks, I think they're almost the same quality to be honest, Sleek do some really nice bold colors. The red Sleek lipstick ('Vixen') is the only red that I like for myself. 'Barely there' is another favourite from Sleek, it's a nude colour with a tiny hint of coral. In Mac I Love 'St. Germain' (obviously), 'Lovelorn', 'Brave', 'Angel'. . .The list is endless! One of my all time favourite eye shadows from Mac is 'Woodwinked', which I seen in so many tutorial videos on Youtube. So, getting to why I wear make up. I've always had issues with the way I look, from the start of secondary school to present. I've just always basically thought I was ugly so I hide myself with make-up. I have to wear make up even to go the corner shop, I know it's bad but that's how I am. I wear full make-up daily, I wish I wasn't so dependent on it but unfortunately I am. I like to wear make up because it makes me feel good about myself, completes my look, gives me a better attitude but more importantly CONFIDENCE! The difference of how I act wearing make up to not not wearing make up is phenomenal! I wouldn't even look someone in their face if I wasn't wearing any. So that's me, I know a lot of girls have the same attitude toward smake up which does make me feel a little bit better about it, just wish I was a natural beauty :/
