Choose Beautiful

Just like every girl, I myself have my own share of insecurities. To be perfectly honest, I do think a big part of it has a lot to do with my love for makeup. I remember how not too long ago, I would feel naked without it and even worse, I would feel ugly and that my bare face wasn't enough. But I've come a long way from that which is why when I started this blog, I knew that I would always want to encourage my readers to make their own beauty shine through, and not the makeup they have on.

What changed my mindset? The main reason would be because I've been fortunate enough to have such amazing friends that always tell me that I don't need any makeup to be beautiful. Sometimes they don't even realize that they're helping me realize it. It was as simple as the times my best friend told me I looked great on a day wherein I forgot to wear mascara because I was running late for school or when my other best friend told me that I'm prettiest when I'm not trying. Friends like these are for keeps and they make me feel more beautiful than any amount makeup ever could.

Basically what inspired me for this mini rant of an entry was this Dove video I watched because it was the ad while I was loading a One Direction video on Youtube. Hehe. I'm sure some of you have seen it, but if you haven't, then I think it's really worth watching! I couldn't help but have a huge grin on my face after seeing it.

So yeah, that's all for this post! Just felt like sharing for all my readers out there who have ever felt insecure or average looking like the girls in the video. I hope you guys never make the mistake of hiding behind makeup like I used to. I hope all of you will #ChooseBeautiful always, even without any makeup on. :)
