I have to be honest. Back in the days, I used to be the girl who would bring EVERYTHING in her purse. In fact I would hate small purses where I couldn't even fit my wallet. I felt the need to bring products that I might need just in case something will happen: hand cream, hand sanitiser, perfume, the whole make up bag, comb... I can go on and on. Now I'm all about the crossbody bag and the clutches. The less I bring, the better.
I guess that my bring-everything-compulsive-disorder is due to the fact that I wasn't confident enough with myself. I'm still not confident enough, but I'm slowly working on it. Why was it connected to my confidence, you might ask. I just thought that the 'more' things I brought to 'take care' of my self, better and prettier I'd feel. It was the opposite. Throughout the day I'd pile on more make up, powder, mascara, lipstick, but the more I put on, the less pretty I'd feel. Often it'll be the opposite: I would bring my whole make up bag and never touched up, 'cause I thought, if someone's really pretty then she doesn't need to touch up nor to put on make up. TEENAGERS PROBLEMS. Always obsessed about looks. During my teenage years, I remember that at one point I wished to be shorter, skinnier, I hated my lips, nose, eyes, skin; basically I wanted to change everything. But that's because during our early teens, our body changes as well as our facial features. It is the time where we go from kids to young adults, physically and mentally. That is why. Thank goodness maturity, realisation and acceptance comes quickly afterwards. We see ourselves all the time, that's why we get sick of ourselves. That's when clothes-fashion and make up-beauty come in. We need those to polish our selves and give us that little push we need to help accept us.
