Make up

Why do you wear makeup?

This is a question that I get asked a lot, from friends and family. 99% of the time I moan about putting makeup on, it takes time, its expensive, I cant decide on what to use. This list of moans is endless. But, I do have good reasons to why I wear make up, and even though I moan about it, it is one of my loves in life. 

I understand that it is what is on the inside that counts, but in all honesty I am 100 times more confident when I am wearing make up. I believe that everyone is beautiful on the inside, as cliché as it sounds, it is something that I truly believe in. But I also believe that it is not 'wrong' or 'vain' to want to wear makeup.

 

Makeup isn't just necessarily covering up your face, it is enhancing what you already have. For example making your eyes bigger and brighter by wearing mascara and choosing an eye shadow that compliments the colour of your eyes. It is quite a closed-minded thing to think that women just wear make up because of the way they look.Its is a form of expression.

 

 I am completely happy with the way I look. I have dark circles under my eyes, acne, scars and discolouration on my face, but I am comfortable in my own skin. I can happily go out to the shops with no makeup on. Of course I think I look better with a bit of makeup on, but that is my personal opinion and choice.

What I am trying to get at is that you want to wear makeup? Brilliant, go for it, experiment with it. But also, you don't want to wear makeup? That's also brilliant, go you for being confident in your own skin!

Whatever your face looks like, it really is what is on the inside that counts.

Until next time...

Diary #1

I am so bad at keeping a diary. Every January I make my new years resolution to keep a diary of my day to day life. For posterity. So I can look back in years to come and know what I did when I was younger. But every year without fail, the resolutions starts and ends in January.

Now that I have this blog I am determined to keep a track of my life. Albeit, this will not be as personal as what I would write in a diary, but alas, it shall be document parts of my life.

Some posts you may find really cool and exiting, and others you may find totally boring, but posts like this are all for my benefit.

So... that brings me onto today, the first of many (hopefully) diary posts. Bit nervous... but I shall just jump straight into it.

This week has been very busy, working full time, starting a new qualification and revising for a driving theory test alongside trying to keep my social life alive is proving to be very difficult. I want to be able to have free time to myself, but right now there seems to be no time for Sophie.

This weekend one of my best friends turns 19! (I literally cannot believe that she is turning 19, we have been friends since we were 11, time is really flying). Anyway, we are having a big night out in our home town on Saturday, I must get myself prepared for a big hangover on Sunday! (it's worth it).


Nothing much else is really happening in my life right now that is exiting enough to blog out. I'm looking forward to my brother coming home today. He has been away visiting friends this week. Although I do find him incredibly annoying most of the time, I like having someone in the house that is my own age and that I get along with.

Anyway, until next time...

Why this Blog exists.

Hello. My name is Sophie Thornton and I am 18 years old. I enjoy listening to music, dreaming about living in New York and taking my dog on walks. Wow... that makes me sound so interesting.

Anyway. Welcome to my blog... Sargent Sophie. This blog is going to be a world of my own, a place where I can get away from the real world and write about whatever I want. There is going to be some funny posts ( as I do like to think of myself as a joker), some deep emotional posts, posts about make up and anything else that really comes to my mind!

 

I really hope that you all enjoy reading my blog and that it brings some happiness and light to your day.
