I stopped putting on makeup for 2 weeks, here is what happened. Great!

The beauty editor of the female sitewomenhealth.comRebecca Norris faced a major challenge: do not wear make-up for two weeks. This request came from her editor-in-chief who asked her to take the test to write an article in which she shared her feelings and how she had experienced the experience.

For Rebecca, do not putmakeupWas a real challenge not only as a woman but also as a beauty specialist who must display a zero-facial complexion every day at the office. Her daily life revolves around cosmetics, and she who is so used to trying a product as soon as it is launched on the market would have to say goodbye to mascaras, lipsticks, foundations and blush. Not moving back, she went to the end of her no makeup challenge and gives us here the details of her experience.

A story without artifice

Having started my challenge on a Saturday, the first two days were quite manageable because since I started working as a beauty writer I do not wear makeup on weekends to let my skin breathe. On Sunday night, however, I felt a sense of anxiety about the next day that I was going to have to face. A multitude of questions then began to fuse.

Would I really be able to go to work without first applying makeup? Will I be able to face the critical glances of my colleagues? Would I be able to go through with this challenge? I tried to cheer myself up by trying to convince myself that this challenge was entirely compatible with my feminist soul and that I should not let myself be influenced by the opinion of others.

The six effects of the challenge

• The fact that I did not have to put on makeup in the morning allowed me to sleep another thirty minutes. Mine of nothing, this daily half-hour of extra sleep allowed me to have a sedated complexion and reduce the appearance ofdark circles.

• It was so surprising to see me at the office without make-up that many colleagues asked me questions like: Are you sick? Have you broken with your fiance? Are you depressed? The majority of people thought that I was suffering from an illness because I have spots on the face and lashes very clear that give me a pallid complexion. The first few days, I politely replied to the people without going into details but after a while I finally explained to them that I was on mission.

• Once my entourage got to know the real reasons why I did not wear makeup any more, I was called courageous woman, which had the gift to irritate me.Why does the fact that a woman decides to show herself naturally and assume herself as she is must necessarily mean that she is courageous? I can not stand the fact that we have to resort to certain artifices to make us look beautiful and alluring!

• But fortunately, this challenge had certain advantages that allowed me to focus on the positives. Being used to being made up from morning to evening, I had to be vigilant and be careful not to rub my eyes so as not to damage my mascara. I must therefore admit that the fact of not putting on make-up aroused in me a feeling of freedom which allowed me to give myself to my heart joy when a part of my face itch me.

• In addition, this challenge allowed me to learn how to take care of myskin, Long neglected because of my obsession with makeup. In the course of my work, I receive many samples of care, but I never looked at it. It was therefore a good time to remedy this and set up a special beauty ritual. I then discovered all the benefits of moisturizing creams and serums to have a clean skin and a radiant complexion.

• As an expert beauty, I'm a big fan of makeup I always considered an infallible weapon to be to my benefit and feel good about myself. It was without counting on this enriching experience that allowed me to accept and love myself as I am natural. Even after the end of the challenge, the time when I spent 30 minutes in front of the mirror every morning was over. Now, when I make up makeup I feel that my face is cluttered or even heavy.This challenge allowed me to discover the true nature of make-up: it covers your defects but does not necessarily put forward your qualities.
