I look at all the professional Makeup Artists that create such beautiful art and it's so inspiring to me. They're just so talented and skillful. It has taken them years to perfect their art and I know that I have a lot to learn before I'm at their level. So when girls started coming up to me and asking me for fashion and beauty advice, it completely shocked me.
It's both flattering and humbling. Wow people really want to know what I think and value my input. At first I felt a little nervous, it felt like a lot of pressure..."What if I gave someone bad advice?! What if I let them down? What do I know?! I'm not a professional!" -Insert panic attack here-
To be perfectly honest, it took me a while to get used to it. After a little while though I really started to cherish it. I fell in love with making others feel beautiful. It's such a good feeling and so rewarding.
My girlfriends are always coming to me for beauty advice; hair, makeup, nails, skincare, fashion, etc. Some of the things they ask me are things that I thought we all knew, but apparently not. (I forget others aren't as obsessed with beauty as I am)
So I started thinking if one person doesn't know maybe there are others who also don't know and could benefit from this information.
...Sooo, that brings me to my next idea. I am adding a "Beauty" section to my blog, where I will be posting beauty related videos and tutorials. I will also be adding a "Fashion" section which will have OOTD's & OOTN's.
I am very excited to do this! I have always dreamt of being a beauty guru and helping women look and feel their best. Everyone deserves to feel beautiful and confident. Regardless of their size, color or sexual orientation. If I can help just one person feel pretty then its all worth it.
I plan on sharing all that I know look forward to learning so much more.
