The point of this blog post though is, although makeup is a wonderful thing and I won't be falling out of love with it anytime soon; I need to get more used to not wearing makeup. I don't view myself as a 'goddess' with makeup but I certainly feel a lot more comfortable and more attractive. Everyone strives for this 'perfect' image and yet in reality, I don't actually think there is a 'perfect image'. Every single person has imperfections or is insecure about something, whether its physical or psychological. Therefore I'm going to really try and make an effort to be more comfortable of my imperfections (lord knows there are enough) and not feel the urge to hide behind a 'makeup mask'. If you have a similar mindset then do the same, we can encourage each other when we're having a bad day. I'm not saying I'm going to be chucking away all my makeup, no way, BUT for days when I'm just catching up and chatting with friends I'm going to go sans makeup and let my skin have a breather.
Love, Laura x
