The story

Hello!!!

I wanna share something which is disturbing my inner peace and lowering my confidence to wear makeup. Let me start, so currently I'm 28 years old and I have never done makeup in my entire life, well I do my skin care regularly but not makeup. All my girlie friends do their makeup and they look extra beauty, they also suggested me to give it a try. After thinking about it for so long I finally decided to give it a try and bought some good basic makeup products. So here's the thing I don't have female in my house it's only me, my elder brother and my fiancé. I have watched tones of makeup tutorial before actually trying it. The very first day when I did a lil makeup I asked my brother and my man, How do I look ? Instead of giving me honest review they laughed at me, saying 'what is this shit on your face' 'you look idiot' and even that man I love told me that he is angry that I'm doing makeup. I felt broke and I cried. Now I don't know should I have asked my girl friends instead of them or just stop doing it. But I wanna be myself, I just want to do it. I really loved it when I did my makeup for the very first time.

Please help me and suggest me what should I do now.

hey there!!! first off, it sounds like you're really branching out and trying something new, which is awesome! 😃 but honestly, it's kinda sad to hear that your brother and fiancé weren't supportive. in situations like this, it's always a good idea to seek feedback from people who appreciate makeup—like your friends who might have more insight. if you loved how you felt wearing it, then keep exploring!! everyone starts somewhere and we all deserve to express ourselves; maybe even try a virtual makeup community or app where others can review and share tips?! also, remember that confidence isn't just about how we look—it's embracing what makes us feel good!

Hey!!! I totally get where you're coming from. It's pretty disappointing when those close to us can't offer the support we're looking for, especially with something new like makeup. Honestly, if it made you feel good and you enjoyed the experience, that's what counts! Maybe next time, try asking your girl friends who understand makeup better—they could give you some great tips or even do a fun makeup session together. Don't let anyone dampen your spirits; doing what makes you happy is what's most important here!!!!

Wow, what a journey you're on! You've taken a bold step trying out makeup for the first time, and I think that's super cool; experimenting with new things can really add to personal growth. It's disappointing that your brother and fiancé couldn't see the beauty in your exploration, but remember that sometimes people get uncomfortable when they see changes they're not used to.
