Hello again my beautiful people!! Once again we meet and once again I have a little something on my mind that I wanted to share with you all.....
So today I wanted to touch on a very touchy topic, especially when it comes to us women and how we view ourselves compared to society. A topic that we never like to admit or face up to. A topic that we wish would just plain and simply ~ GO AWAY......
~ IMPERFECTIONS ~
Who really notices our own imperfections more than we do ourselves? How many times have we pointed out something that we didn't like physically about ourselves to a friend, yet the friend never even noticed the imperfection until you said something in the first place. Sometimes we can be our very own worst critic!
That is why I have decided to declare that all of my imperfections are indeed perfect, and these perfect imperfections are what makes me unique in my very own way! I even made a list of a few of my perfect imperfections because I now embrace these qualities about myself and I'm not afraid to let the world know!!
~ PERFECT IMPERFECTIONS ~
1. Super Hairy....
This can be a good thing if you love long, thick, flowing hair...However, when hair grows EVERYWHERE from sideburns to chin, it gets a bit annoying! I have to shave my legs every single day and if I miss a day my body is like a forest....I can not count the amount of money I spend monthly on waxing. But we have to do what we have to do right?? Sometimes I feel like Big Foot!! But a cute version of Big Foot of course! :)
2. Acne Prone Skin....
For as long as I can remember, I have had acne prone skin. My pores clog very easily and the least little thing can make me break out....For that reason, I have developed a daily and nightly skin care routine that works for me. Even though I love make-up and beauty, I have to limit the amount of make up I wear because of my skin problems. I'm actually in the middle of a break-out right now! Ugh.....
3. Under eye bags....
Oh the joy! Honestly, I believe I was born with the bags under my eyes because when I look back at childhood baby pictures, I see them!! I don't know if they are actually bags, but it's just a large puffy area, mostly under my right eye, so I consider them bags. If I don't get enough sleep, they are even worse...Concealer and cc cream usually does a good job at covering them...
4. Shape of my nose....
I remember when I was younger I was called names like "big nose" and "Rudolph" and the bullying just wouldn't stop! I'm telling you kids can be cruel. At one point in my life I even considered saving up money for a nose job! Thank God I came to my senses and realized that my nose is not as bad as I think. It makes me unique and I've actually grown into my nose as an adult. Even though I have learned to accept my nose, its still not perfect and I do consider it one of my perfection imperfections.
5. Cellulite.....
Need I explain!
I'm curious to know if any of you share any of the same imperfections or if you are comfortable talking about it? I know this can be a touchy topic for some, but we all are beautiful and unique human beings. Every little characteristic and trait, whether we like it or not, makes up who we are.
I am truly convinced that we are ALL beautiful!!
Until next time....Stay Beautiful & Keep it Humble!
