Short and Sweet


"The most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched, they must be felt with the heart." Helen Keller

I came across this quote the other day and I thought it was lovely, it reminded me that while its nice to have shiny hair, pretty makeup and expensive clothes those aren't the most important things. Sometimes I find myself getting too caught up in how something or someone looks outwardly, and I always judge too quickly.

The main focus of this blog is of course makeup, and trust me there will soon be many more reviews! But I thought for now I'd leave you all with that quote, take it as you wish but I really like it. Every day for the next week I'm going to try and stop judging others based on their appearance, if I see someone and think to myself that their hairdo is ugly, or that their clothes don't suit them I'm also going to think of something nice about them. You guys may think this is stupid, but as someone who has been very critical of people in the past based solely on their appearance I think it will be good for me to try this out. Now some of you may be thinking I'm a terrible person for judging people based on their appearance, but everyone does it. If you want to join me in this little "challenge" I guess you could call it, then please do!
