There are dark, monstrous self-image problems snarling in my past. I hated my face and felt the need to drag myself behind a mask of makeup every day…a mask I loved and hated and served. The shame I felt is called as dysmorphia—it is embraced by us and overcome by Christ.
Today, the only makeup I wear is mascara and occasional eyeliner. Sometimes I smear foundation all over my face again, but every single time, I shake my head at my reflection and wipe it off. I was created by God, not Mary Kay. And His image is nothing but beautiful. <3
wow your really pretty
You have the prettiest eyes I have ever seen! They look like little…um…blue gems that have a name I can’t think of at the moment…Topaz? No, those are yellow…We’ll go with little pieces of the sky. That sounds nice. Beautiful!
You put it so eloquently! You go girl! and @Cj Serendipity – Topazes are blue 😉 but you’re right, your second comparison sounds even better!
girl you are gorgeous you do not need any makeup whatsoever
girl you are gorgeous, you dont need any makeup whatsoever!
Your story is so inspiring. So many times I look at the mirror and don’t like what I see. You really don’t need makeup.
Aww thank you girls <3 =) I would have looked at/responded to these comments sooner, but I only JUST figured out today that you could join this site for free! I used to think you had to pay to join at all, lol. But you guys are so sweet. No one “needs” makeup 🙂
