Real Beauty

Tutorial

I am Brave and Beautiful – a beauty movement that is sweeping the globe. Colbie Caillat started it with her recent song and video called TRY. My blogging friend Megan of Brassy Apple wanted to push this movement along and invited women from all over to share what they looked like without make up and I joined in!! Colbie’s song says, “Take your make up off. Let your hair down… Look into the mirror at yourself, Do you like you? Cause I like you… “

Megan and her friend Cobi of Peacefrom6pieces have been the team behind this whole project. Their worldwide vision included creating their own video inspired by the song TRY. The talent of Robbins Creative made it possible for them to pull it off. You have to click play and see the beauty and bravery displayed and you might even recognize a few faces in there…. not mine, but some of my friends.

Me along with 101+ other blogging women from different backgrounds, religions, ethnicities, ages, shapes and sizes have decided to be Brave and Beautiful! You can join in this movement too by sharing what you look like without makeup on. You don’t need a blog either! Just tag your photo with #IamBraveAndBeautiful on Instgram and search the hashtag to see who else has joined in. ALSO, if you tag it with a second hashtag – #ColbieTRY we just might be able to get Colbie Caillat’s attention since she was the inspiration behind it all!

Are you brave and beautiful? I am, here I go!

 

The photo on the right was taken just moments before bed, in my pj’s… and I’m not gonna lie, that’s how I look most days, all day long. And yes, yoga pants are my friends.

This challenge wasn’t really that hard for me, because I don’t have a problem taking off my makeup and showing the world the true me. I know that beauty is more than just a smear of makeup on your face. Beauty is the PERSON you are inside. I have always known this because I had such a great example in my mom. My mom has always taught me and my sisters that we don’t have to be all dolled up all the time to be beautiful. I don’t remember very many days growing up, where my mom spent all day getting herself ready, putting on makeup, doing her hair, or fussing about her wardrobe. But I do remember plenty of days where my mom spent the entire day serving other people. Days when she didn’t go to bed until the wee hours of the night, because she was sewing a Halloween costume, or making a treat for a neighbor. My mother is EXACTLY what true beauty is all about, and that’s because she looked beyond the mirror, to help other people. That’s what’s important… not how we look, but how we treat the people around us. Serving, loving, sharing, and being genuine with the people around you will make you more beautiful than any cosmetic. 

I heard a leader in my church, Dieter F. Uchtdorf say exactly how I feel, “Do you suppose it matters to our Heavenly Father whether your makeup, clothes, hair, and nails are perfect? Do you think your value to Him changes based on how many followers you have on Instagram or Pinterest? Do you think He wants you to worry or get depressed if some un-friend or un-follow you on Facebook or Twitter? Do you think outward attractiveness, your dress size, or popularity make the slightest difference in your worth to the One who created the universe? He loves you not only for who you are this very day, but also for the person of glory and light you have the potential and the desire to become.”

Don’t stop here. Get clicking around – its a blog hop! Below are more brave and beautiful women bearing more than their natural beauty. They each have a little bit of their heart to share with you. Some get very personal. Some share stories. For some this was very hard to do yet they gathered their courage and did it anyway. We hope as you click around (and YES pin these different posts!) you will feel the importance of it, the empowering effect it has and that it encourages you in some way.

>>>>>>>Important info! Blog Hops often have glitches the first day. If the link has an ERROR, simply click on the HOME button for each site, or google the blog name next to the link, and you should see their brave and beautiful post there. Links will be updated as soon as possible.<<<<<<<<<<<<
