FEELING BEAUTIFUL IN YOUR OWN SKIN

Feeling beautiful in your own skin. It seems so hard yet it only takes very little. I’ve personally never been one to think I was beautiful or my ideal weight, which are two things that bother me greatly. I would never go out without makeup, even though I know that I don’t have bad skin, or many spots.

Yet, there’s something about that protection that makeup gives you, feeling covered up and managing to feel beautiful. I recently decided that I can’t just moan around and expect to get more beautiful or thinner. I realized that if God thinks I should be prettier he will make it happen, and if I want to be thinner, I need to GET thinner. This means exercising more and eating healthier.

I believe that since I’ve decided that I need to look on life more positively, I feel more energetic, I feel alive and healthy and I finally feel pretty. It doesn’t take much, but as soon as you decide to see yourself in another light, nearly automatically you’ll stop seeing your imperfections and you’ll start noticing the things that are amazing about you, your peculiarities, the things that make you, YOU.

Stop thinking that you’re ugly and you need to cover up with makeup. You are beautiful with and without it and it shouldn’t be a cover up, but something to play around with to have fun and feel glamorous now and then.

I know it’s easier to sit around and moan, but does it really make you feel good? No. Start changing your life.

I think you’re beautiful.

Send me a picture of you with no makeup on with the hashtag #nomakeupwithuf (uf is underground fairytales, just it was way too long to write it all down ahahah) and I’ll come like them all. (Instagram: undergroundfairytales Twitter:@avdorash)

I love you, Sara xx

FAVOURITE QUOTES #1

’ve always believed that quotes are the best motivation you can get. I often spend hours scrolling through Tumblr looking for perfect quotes that inspire me or represent my feelings and emotions. Gandhi and Martin Luther King are maybe two of the most influential people that have ever lived, and they definitely inspire me to be a better person.

“Change does not roll in on wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle. And so we must straighten our backs and work for our freedom.” Martin Luther King

“You must be the change you wish to see in the world.” Mahatma Gandhi

Marilyn Monroe on the other hand is my ‘Love Doctor’. She blessed the world with her gracious presence and taught me personally the ‘rules’ about love.

“I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.” Marilyn Monroe

These are some other quotes that made me feel better or encouraged me to do something recently.

“Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase.” (I’m not sure who said this, sorry!)

“You must take personal responsibility. You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons, or the wind, but you can change yourself. That is something you have charge of.” Jim Rohn

“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken” Oscar Wilde

Hopefully these quotes have inspired you to change for the better as they did for me.

What are your favourite quotes? Have you ever heard of these ones?
