Make It Up Monday - New Year, New YOU! 

Make It Up Monday 2017 - Be You

Posted by Heather Coopersmith on January 01, 2017

2017 is here and it's a New Year, New YOU!
When we reflect on the year past, I believe that this motto is meant to say that we can only get better. We can always improve and enhance. We can try harder for our environment and to make a difference in our communities. This is an ongoing goal of mine not only in the new year but for always. How freeing and empowering it is to know that a difference can always be made either for our own selves or for world. Makeup and Beauty is an amazing accessory that can be just as uplifting on the inside as it is communicating to the outside. I hope that whatever beauty trends you find yourself keeping, trying or experimenting with in 2017, that above all else, it brings you happiness, enlightenment and even some silliness in achieving whatever your 'YOU' Goals are in 2017! Beauty trends like graphic eyeliner and bold lips may come and go, that is what makes them so much fun, but YOU can always do makeup the way YOU wish because YOU are unique and one of a kind. Beauty will always be subjective and always in the eye of the beholder. So free yourself from expectation and expand your horizons, try new things because let’s face it, no one will ever begrudge you for holding onto a Winged Out Liner. The future is bright.... YOU be YOU!
