Makeup for the Inside


Sometimes I'm so good, I impress myself!!  This is actually something I wrote for Nouveau, my makeup blog, but after writing it, I realized the readers of Versailles could definitely benefit and appreciate this as well;-)

Makeup is one of those things in life that is meant to improve our perception of reality.  Makeup in and of itself does nothing to enrich the individual on a spiritual level, however, because of the effect it has on what we perceive as REAL, and has the capability to improve what you see and how you are seen each day when you open your eyes, it holds unspeakable power.  I'm using this to my advantage, because, no person is complete if there are things inside that make us feel less than desirable.  This post won't contain any beauty hacks or products to try, it's going to offer TRUE PERSPECTIVE, it's makeup for the inside...

Let's Begin...

What have you done today to make you smile?  Take the time to hand craft your day.  What I mean by that is to set some time aside each night as apart of your bedtime routine to really THINK about what it is you want to accomplish the next day.  Be sure to include at least 1 activity, no matter how small, that makes you smile.  A smile is the closet few seconds of heaven you will come to while breathing; it's ESSENTIAL to your everyday life.

Keeping a spirit of gratitude and forward thinking is imperative to your well-being.  If we are constantly reminding ourselves of all the things that make our life worth living, we find less time to dwell on the things that don't.  Understanding that yesterday is over, and TOMORROW is the day that holds ALL the possibility, and not a moment after that, makes living for the moment soo much easier.  After all, what else do you really have?!!

Last, and possibly the most important thing of all; KEEP LISTENING TO YOU.  Do not for one minute allow anyone else to presume that they are more in tune with your dreams and aspirations than you are.  If there is one thing I have learned the hard way it has been that my life is ONLY mine to live.  Involving others in things that effect the outcome of how MY life turns out is just preposterous.  NO ONE spends more time with me than I do.  Even if I am afraid to say so, or just don't know at the time, the original thought is still MINE.  Put your opinion first.  At the end of the day, it's the only one that matters...

Life is the reason we feel like makeup is necessary.  It's the people we meet, and the situations we encounter that make it something that matters to us.  We should be as meticulous with the inside as we are with what people see on the outside.  Pay attention to the "products" you are using, and what is going in.  If its BS, then let it go.  You will NEVER radiate with the glow of true love, SELF-LOVE, otherwise.  After all, Who has time to be walking around half-beat??!!~The Queen~

Crystals and Couture

  Those just might be my 2 favorite C words known to man!  With the start of a new year, it's only right I acquire a little bit of both!  I've had my eyes peeled for the past few weeks for all of the best sales; I had my heart set on a new piece of Rainbow Tourmaline and Rose Quartz(see below for crystal properties and uses if you aren't familiar!).  At the same time, I have also been dreaming of some new bags; crossbodys and a satchel, to be specific; a little on the fancy side though.  All of my work was not in vain because guess what?!  Marshall's is now carrying Badgley Mischka handbags and wallets-mike drop...but it gets even BETTER-not one item is priced over $29.99!!  Wait, What?!  Yes Please!!  Amazon has 1 lb of Raw Rainbow Tourmaline AND Rose Quartz for under $15.00.  I also came across a National Geographic Rock Polisher for $39.99!!  Your girl is absolutely THRILLED!!  What crystals do you have your eye on?!  Have you guys come up on any superstar purse deal

You Only Owe YOURSELF

I had an epiphany the other day... What if we put all the energy we expel on others that is foolishly wasted BACK into ourselves, our life dreams, and into creating the world we CHOOSE to live in??!! Before we all become hopelessly selfish and self-involved, re-read, and take in the thought in its ENTIRETY!!!  I am talking SPECIFICALLY in instances where your positive energy, time, and effort are not being reciprocated. There are so many situations we find ourselves in to which we develop an animosity of sorts towards those we are actively trying to help when we don’t feel that same energy being returned to us in one form or another.  Yet, we are taking umbridge with the wrong individual.  The person we should be focusing those feelings is right there waiting on the other side of the mirror.  That is who entangled you and your resources to an individual making moves to which your higher self is not in agreement.  This is who we should look to for explanation and a game

Being Present

This Moment, the one happening right now, is ALL that there is.  Allow me to explain... Yes, there is a past, things that have already happened.  What must be understood about these events is, once they happen, they are OVER.  It's gone.  If it is any point in time that you are not actively engaged in, that point does not currently exist.  The principle is also works on the inverse; anything that has yet to occur, has yet to come into existence , and should have absolutely NO bearing on what is currently happening to you. Our past is a experienced-based tool from which to learn and grow FORWARD.  It is not meant to trap us or the people in our lives, preventing our best lives from being brought to fruition.  If there is something behind you, LET IT GO.  Grasp the lesson and understand that there is no going back.  On the same note, we must also do the same when it comes to anticipation of events yet to come.  Being wrapped up in anxiety of how something MAY play out
