I was always jealous of the people who's passion defined them ever since I could even remember. Some of my friends loved dancing and were well known for it, some in other things like sports but I never knew any of my passions that defined me. True I honestly loved venturing around trying and doing everything but I was the jack of all trades but master of...

nothing.

Trust me guys if you think I grew up playing with makeup, you thought wrong. I grew up with mathematical calculations, self made science projects and I hated drawing or colouring. I would've rather just spill colour all over my paper than properly colouring it. For me back then, I knew I wasn't going to be any good in it so why try? 

I was never those little girls who wore dresses and was girly as a little child. Yes I wore dresses as a child but I was that "tomboy" child that wore dresses her mom forced her to wear but jump around in them chasing people and playing around as a kid. I wasn't interested in anything girl related like fashion nor was I interested especially in makeup. I thought makeup was for the girls who enjoyed being vain. Never have I thought that it'd be my passion. Finally, something that defined me.

Makeup wasn't a revolution to me. It was evolving in my head. I used to wonder how girls were able to look so flawless so I took my close observations and made up my own theories. Firstly I learned how to wear powder. Everytime I went out back then I would remember to wear powder. Slowly it evolved and now I can't leave the house without my full set contour of makeup on my face. I slowly learned everything I needed to know in the process although i'm sure it wasn't a pretty one. They weren't lying when they said that you'd only learn from your mistakes. I made plenty of makeup mistakes I now regret but when I look back, I see how far i've come from there.

I used to do my eyeliner so messy and so saggy which evolved into the super thick liner and then now I have perfected the art of the perfect winged eyeliner believe it or not ladies and gentlemen. I observed a lot of girls and i've come to the conclusion that flawless isn't really flawless and that natural makeup does exist, not just drag. 

Plenty of people are so against makeup when all makeup does is enhance your features and not change them (unless you intend fully to). People who wear makeup doesn't mean that they're insecure. Wearing makeup in front of a mirror is a magical process. You get to see yourself go from a 6 to a 9 quick. Plus, makeup is basically...art on your face you see? Makeup might seem simple but it takes proper skill to get it just right and suitable for you. I realized makeup became a passion when I was fascinated to know more and more. First it was about knowing how you could actually enhance your features so much by just adding a little this and that and then bam I kept learning to the point I am totally madly in love with it.

Slowly, I grew with it and my passion for it became stronger I started doing makeup looks online and then shifted to the creepier ones because I enjoy how mindblown people are just because of the simple art of makeup I do on my face. Here I am now doing FX, facepaint and normal makeup and I know I might not be much yet, but i'm definitely proud to have made it out this far.
