Do What You Want!

When you wake up in the morning, there are several things you need to do: get dressed, brush you hair and teeth, and eat breakfast. Getting dressed before you leave your house is essential; you can’t walk around naked in public, unless you want to get arrested or something. It is something you have to do in the eyes of society.

Society has the image of women all wrong. They say that women are ugly if they do not have a face full of makeup and a stick thin body. What happened to being a nice person? Or having morals? What happened to loving someone’s personality over their looks? It seems like society has forgotten all of this. As long as you’re thin and pretty, everyone will love you!

Wrong. If you are not into wearing makeup, then don’t wear it! It is as simple as that. So what if everyone on earth is raving about Kylie Jenner’s lips and how to use makeup to do it for yourself? If you don’t want it, don’t do it just because everyone thinks you should.

Wearing makeup should not feel like putting on clothes in the morning. You should not be spending an extra 20 minutes in the morning doing something that you do not want to do. If you want to spend that long, then do it by all means. But if you feel like you have to wear a full face of makeup to be “normal” in today’s world, you have it all wrong.

Wearing and doing your makeup should be enjoyable; it is an art. It takes time, effort, practice, and money to be able to have amazing outcomes. If you spend hundreds of dollars and hours of your time for someone else, think of all of the other things that you could be doing for yourself. You could be bettering yourself, making friends, studying for class, even watching Netflix!

However, if you are like me, and don’t give a sh*t about what society says, do what you want. Some days I will wear a full face of makeup. Some days I will walk out the door looking like I just woke up. I do my makeup when I feel like it and how I want to. I will wear purple lipstick if I wanted to, and society in general would be like WTF is she wearing, even though they say girls should wear makeup. But that’s a different rant for a different time…
