RE: Hello Steemit friends, Im from the land where fairies and magic are real.
welcome aboard! you will find a lot of things in here as well as awesome people i can guarantee that, the community is great and anyone i willing to help so i bet you will find many answers to your questions.
from what i read i can say i am pretty amazed with your interests and i say that in a good way. now about the ''double life thing'' i don't exactly know what you 've been through in order to get out of the closet as you said but it takes a lot of effort to manage to do so.
and that fashion is just "materialized", that you cannot get a job if you follow fashion design i think in this era it's the complete opposite you can really ''easily'' create a whole fashion empire out nothing, you got internet, online sales and a majority of people that doesnt really care who are you but what you are making and how much they like it and by that i mean i wasnt like 20+ years ago that you had to be someone in order to be related with fashion and make a living out of it. now once again i will express the opposite :P
dont hate me Fashion and makeup is not just for show, it takes dedication and self love, it can transform you from the inside basically the main reason is just for show :P and when we talk about make up that whose the basic reason it was made. people who feel insecure about themselves try to hide it as much as they can with various lies in order to get the attention of somebody and that somebody if he/she was let's just say a good person, with or without make up he/she would behave the same to you. we can argue all day about this i believe :P
finally oh god how much i wrote again..... for more info about how this works read the FAQ it was mayde and updated by other steemit users so you can pretty much get the big idea. other than this my personal advice for growth that i say to everyone and it may sound too mainstream is to read others posts that ofc you like and find interesting and dont just upvote by instead interact with them. that i believe is key factor that will distinguish you.
ahh what have i done again...
Oh please, hating is ugly haha, I welcome everyone opinions, it showed that my message has been heard and you guys took your time to write back to me. This give me a chance to clarify myself more :)
I agreed with you that it is very different now for the fashion industry because we have the internet, such a great opportunity and great time live in, but I grew up around the idea of "fashion is just "materialized", that you cannot get a job if you follow fashion design", I tried the business and felt once when I was 15-16, I was young and afraid to get up and follow it again. That is why I didn't choose Fashion design for college and still wonder why I did that. I just want to put it out there, and whoever is in my situation won't just hesitate to follow what they really want, and don't just take the long road like me.
I really have no problem with my bare face, but it is my job to bring beauty to life, I love make up and do other people make up. So why not perfected on yourself first, cause obviously people won't ask for makeup advice from someone who only wear make up once or twice a week. I have to admit I'm extra. It is just me and and I don't recommend that everybody should be like me. I'm just here to help and maybe inspire others.
I don't want one of my hobby to spread the idea of "faking it", it is more about "enhancing" the face feature that is already exist, it could give a lot of internal power to a girl, and trust me not every girl around the world is strong and empower from the inside, especially if you come from a country that degraded women. I have so many friends what never think that they are beautiful, they don't have the courage to express themselves fully and do what they actually want. Because when I see their eyes lit up when they see themselves in the mirror, that gave me the power to continue. I don't have the power to change the idea about makeup in the society, so I gave that power to other girls, and confident girls can do everything they wanted to prove it to the society. ;)
And thank you so much for the advice, I have to admid I didn't really go around much yet on here, still a bit overwhelm and trying to catch up with everyone ^_^.
i will stick to the make up once again :P i totally get what you saying about yourself and as you said if you do it on others you just have to know what are you doing, it's like if i want to sale a weight loss product i can't do it while being overweight! i dont quite agree with the ''use make up to feel better and more confident'' ( you havent said yourself it's just the general belief that is an accurate fact). Moreover saying girls can't express themselves, feeling ugly etc etc is something boys have a harder time with and they dont use make up whatsoever, only anabolics :P
the truth is that make up is the easiest and fastest way to deceive everyone and yourself and make others believe you are beautiful so that you believe in yourself too ( now for how long and what life would that be it's another story) let's say we have sarah that with make up boost herself a 30% more of what she is ( i would it's way more than that but ok) then she uploads Instagram photos with filters and with a more careful approach 30% will be in a short period of time 50%+ of what she was. a couple of guys will start sending messages (i bet you know what i am talking about), her ego and confident will start to rise and boom sarah is now happy and confident with a fair amount of people and guys talking to her and flirting with her,till she finds out most of the people she meets with that kind of life would be complete trash, many problems will occur resulting in conflicts between friends and her own self and someday she will realize that '' i am not my self any more''
if you have low self esteem and don't believe in yourself while you are the type that want to have friends and dont be lonely the best way but the hardest one is to go out and talk with people being the real you. most of the friends you make will be real friends and long term you be happier
to make it up (make it up get it? i am too funny) i have some guides for you that i think are kind of unique out there and can help you way to much by people who know their stuff
