"Sweat Pants, Hair Tied, Chillin With no Make-up on That's When Your The Prettiest..."

So, today was a normal school morning of waking up and getting ready for school. Although it was also the day of my computing exam so I was a little stressed and wanted to be in school early...though that never happens!...but as I had my exam I wanted to get to school in good time.  I was ready in good time, but as per usual my little sister, Alanna was taking her time doing her hair and make-up, now bare in mind she is only 13...at 13 I didn't take 30minutes to do my make-up and hair...anyone else?? As I was calling her name to hurry up, it started to wonder why does a 13 year old girl need to put make-up on for school???
On the way to school in the car Alanna and I were talking about make-up and hair and I was asking her why she wore make-up to school and didn't really have and answer, but she did reply with "But Megan, why do you wear make-up everywhere you go? You put it on first thing in the morning, even it's just to see the postman." That statement got me thinking....

Why do I wear make-up and fuzz with my hair?  Well for my personally, it's a confidence thing.  I know that if I go out of the house without make-up on I don't feel confident at all.  I just think that if I look my best I feel my best...this could also be used the other way...if I feel my best I look my best.  So in saying all this in the New Year I have decided to take a new approach to myself.  I've decided I need to feel get in order to be confident within myself.  I am going to take a new approach to my lifestyle...gym....and start to eat right...and look after my skin! I feel that this will burst my confidence! ... I'm going to take care of my skin and show it's true potential.  So to anyone reading this I challenge you to do the same and leave me comments on how you are getting on!  I'm going to call it PROJECT CONFIDENCE! I'll continue to leave blogs on how I get on...and give you tips and tricks to help you!

123...lets go!

Hello blogging world!

My name is Megan Gilbert and I am an aspiring beauty therapist.  I thought I would start a blog to try to get my name out there and give people tips and tricks I've learnt along the way.  Yes, I'm only 17 but going to night college watching tutorials on youtube, having an auntie in the beauty industry and being into fashion and beauty is a massive bonus. 

I thought I would start this blog and write tips and techniques I learnt.  There may even be fun, quirky random posts that don't have anything to do with fashion or beauty...!

Well anyways...Either comment below if there's anything you want me to include in my blog....otherwise....I'll just get started!....

xoxo
