Don't Try so Hard

Last week, during Meagan's Friday Favorites link up, I was introduced to the "florkens". One post (Don't Try so Hard) in particular was featured on the Friday Favorites, and it really made me stop and read and think. The post featured this amazing song: Colbie Caillat's "Try".



Jackie and Nicole are co-hosting this link up with the "florkens". I love the idea behind it to promote true natural beauty! I'm definitely one of those women that at least does the eye makeup. Admittedly, I do too much eye makeup most likely, but I tend to feel more confident covering the dark circles under my eyes. (Thanks, kids for not letting me sleep ever!) So, without stalling anymore let's let the picture speak for itself! Please excuse the poor lighting and quality, I don't have a fancy camera and I didn't do any editing! I also took my glasses off so you could actually see my eyes.

In following the rules of the link up, one thing I love about myself: my eyes. They're green on the outside with a brown ring on the inside. I guess that's the reason why I usually only do make up on my eyes, haha.


So don't be shy! Join the link up! I want to see just how beautiful you really are!

  10. Melissa, your skin looks so smooth and fair! You have so much natural body in your hair. Just lovely. I hope #nomakeup selfies become a real trend to balance out the unrealistic expectations the media has created.

    Thank you for being a part of this link-up, you're so brave =)

    I've joined in too!
