Something...different

I'm online a lot (though judging from how often I've been updating this blog you'd think otherwise lol), and I'm getting pretty sick of certain things. What certain things? Well...this, for example:




Stuff like this is damaging. Stuff like this is NOT okay. The girl is absolutely beautiful in both photos. Whoever makes this crap (probably some lonely single teenage guy who has nobody to keep him company other than his raging hormones) needs a reality check.

Women spend billions of dollars per year on cosmetics alone. Why? It's because people convince us that natural beauty is NOT beauty. When people ask me what's wrong or if I'm okay when I don't have makeup on, it makes me feel ugly. Luckily, my boyfriend thinks I'm pretty all the time, which is great.

Makeup is fun, it is a way of expressing myself, and I can accentuate certain features that I like. I don't use it to "cover up my ugly face" or anything like that...but so many people won't even leave the house without caking makeup on their faces in order for society to "accept them."

Posts like the example I used need to just...stop. Everybody is beautiful in their own unique, amazing way. Be proud of who you are, and what you look like. You have one body, respect it. :)

Love you all.
