Reflections for a new year

Over the past few months, I've gone through a phase when it comes to makeup where I have said, "screw it!" When it come to wearing it. I think it started with me making a little bit of a viw to not wear any for a few weeks as a "sabatical" for my face. Part of it was that I was starting to feel like makeup was becoming a crutch in my life and that I needed it. This is something that I dont want to happen. Dont get me wrong, makeup is amazing and really can add to a polished look! It can make you feel good and it can make for amazing results.  Im not putting down the use of it at all.
So here I have been, going makeup free most of the time. I have had the same misgivings about doing so, thinking, "what about the days when I look tired" or what about work!" Lots of thoughts came to my mind about this. But alas I have done this! And I've learned a lot about myself!
I've learned that I am still beautiful, I am still me. I've learned how to accept my face for what it is. I've also noticed less acne, which is huge for me! I am thinking that this eye opener has helped me out incredibly with self image and who I am in God. So to start my new year out, this is who I am!
