"Natural Beauty does not mean giving up on makeup.
It just means that you embrace the fact that your beauty does not depend on it"
"Natural Beauty does not mean giving up on makeup.
It just means that you embrace the fact that your beauty does not depend on it"
Very few women, even models, feel that they can roll out of bed and have their face naturally beautiful. We look at ourselves and see slight imperfections. Then we often end up feeling a desire to cover it.
This does not have to be your story. Natural beauty is something we can all enjoy because there is no single “right” definition for it.
For some, natural beauty means waking up each day and feeling as though your skin is glowing. Others, think that it is simply to feel good. Then you have another group of women who feel that “natural” means appearing as though they aren’t wearing makeup.
All those “definitions” are true. It is all based on where you come from and how you see and feel about yourself.
That being said if natural beauty is a goal, and we believe it is an important one, those definitions wont't help much.
That is why we decided to propose our own vision and journey toward natural beauty. Obviously, there are many ways of achieving and the one we propose is one among many but at least we hope it will give you better ideas and clues than just saying "there are a lot of definitions so go find one for yourself..."
To fully understand our natural beauty journey, it is essential to first explain why we think it is better and what we want to avoid.
If you are like most women, we remember watching our mom, aunts, grandmothers, and more putting on makeup. They made it look glamorous. It was intriguing to see the transformation take place and we couldn’t wait to become “older” to do the same thing.
Then, you get the “permission” to apply a little and feel as though we were a princess. It is an amazing day that we never quite forget. We feel so "grown" and beautiful.
We develop a habit of feeling as though we cannot show our face without makeup on. If we try to, we feel self-conscious. I would say that this feeling is even more accentuated in France where many women would not dare leave their houses without makeup at all.
It becomes a shield that we use to hide who we are. That is exactly what we want to fight and what natural beauty is all about for us: accepting that our wakeup face is beautiful and is worth being shown.
We love makeup, we love the creativity it can bring to our days, we love the colors and how it makes us feel. Do not get confused between wearing makeup and hiding who you are. A woman who wears makeup is NO less confident than a woman who chooses not to wear it.
The only questions remaining are: why are you wearing makeup and how do you feel without any makeup on ?
Our vision of natural beauty is only an answer to that question by "I wear makeup because I enjoy it but I feel just as beautiful without it"
You are naturally beautiful
when you are yourself.
