Hello, everyone! I hope your week has been going well. I'm definitely ready for the weekend!
Lately on my Facebook, there seems to be a lot of drama regarding makeup. We're in this phase of #NoMakeupSelfies which is all fine well and good except that now women are getting bashed and criticized for choosing to wear makeup. They're labeled as fake, shallow, deceitful, and insecure. What the hell?! If you're one of the ladies who choose to be natural and not wear makeup, good for you. It's a personal choice and honestly, I admire your confidence. But bashing other women who decide to wear makeup is never acceptable. There's nothing moral about makeup. Just because someone wears makeup, she is not a slut, a fake, or shallow. She's a woman who is free to make her own decisions without getting harassed.
I am honestly caught in the middle of the debate because there are days when I opt out of makeup (typically on the weekends) yet I don't know if I could do makeup-free everyday. There's something special about putting makeup on for me. I love having a few minutes to take care of myself and make myself feel good. I'm not saying i feel worthless without makeup, but sometimes it's just fun to doll yourself up and unleash your inner diva.
I guess what I trying to say, is stop judging other people. Cheers to the ladies who rock those #NoMakeupSelfies and cheers to those who simply love the joys of feeling extra pretty. It's not a competition about morality. It's just makeup. It's really not a big deal. Just be true to yourself and ignore the haters. And for goodness sake, stop making every single thing a controversy. We already have enough drama in this life.
Peace
-Chloe
