Do You Feel Exposed?
Hey there Beauty B's!
Tonight I wanted to share with you an inspiring piece to show many of you out there that you are not alone when it comes to feelings about this topic. I want to talk to you about how you feel when you take off your makeup? I want you to seriously take a minute and think about this for just second. Don't be embarrassed about your answer because there are many out there in this battle. In fact, just to show to all of you out there that you aren't alone, here is my personal answer.
First off I want to say that when I hear the words take off your makeup, or you have to come without makeup I want to scream. The next thing that happens is that I get this weird sense of panic, followed by embarrassment because of my hyper-pigmentation, and then lastly I get shy because I feel exposed to the world. Now the sense of panic is because I believe that my makeup actually helps me feel more like the person I want to be. I like to feel and be well put together as it makes me feel more comfortable in the world. I also like to look presentable because I personally feel that you never know who you might meet. Granted you want the person to like you for you flaws and all, but do I have to expose my flaws right away? Next the embarrassment sets in because I have this new hyper-pigmentation that is slowly fading but makes me self-conscious. I never had this issue before and well it really does bother me a lot. I now know more than ever how others feel and how it can effect your mental health. Lastly you probably wonder why I get shy. Believe it or not I used to be a confident person but let's just say life happened. I feel shy because I personally get in my head that everyone is staring at my pigmentation issue and thinking about how unfortunate that is. I feel exposed and that when my shyness kicks right in. Do any of these things sound familiar?
Tonight I wanted to share this because I hear many times how beautiful I am and this that and the other, but I want to remind people that there is more that lies beneath. My makeup gives me my boost I need to face the world after battling depression for three years. After those three years I have learned more about beauty inside and out than ever before. I want to remind everyone that yes makeup is an amazing thing in so many of our lives, but remember it doesn't make the person. Makeup up can enhance what we have but no matter what it can cover any ugly that may lie beneath.
So Beauty B's it's okay to feel exposed as you aren't alone. Just remember stay humble and remember Vanity Isn't Insanity, it's an evil that has powers to heal.

Dontcha let nobody
Try to steal your fun
'Cause a little touch of lipstick
Never hurt no one
The future's got a million roads
For you to choose
But you'll walk a little taller
In some high-heeled shoes
And once you find the style
That makes you feel like you
Something fresh
Something new
