Welcome to my brand new blog Colour it Beauty!
This is my very first foray into the blogging world so I thought the best way to start would be to tell you a little about me!
I'm 22 and I live in New Zealand. I've lived here my whole life and as much as I do love it, I'm dying to move overseas and travel around! Meanwhile however, until those dreams come true, I am working and studying full time. I have an absolute love for makeup and skincare and I currently work in the beauty industry.
When I was younger I never really enjoyed makeup and barely ever wore it, I was always the girl in school with nothing on but lip balm! Skincare was pretty much a foreign idea to me as well. I used to scrub (yes! Scrub!) my face every few days with St Ives apricot face scrub (just thinking about the damage I could have done makes me want to go back and slap my younger self) and never moisturised because I never thought I needed to.
When I grew up, moved outta home and started working I pretty much fell into makeup by coming across 'how to' videos online and now it's a full blown obsession. I just love everything about it, how it can completely change both how someone looks and how someone feels. I believe the power makeup can have on a woman is unmeasurable and incredible! So I love it!
About a year ago I discovered skincare and again, I fell in love. I love both the science behind it and the experience of using it. In my mind it's the perfect way to end a hectic day and it's the best way to start a new one (unfortunately that's not to say that I can never be caught lazily leaving my makeup on overnight every now and again).
I'm very excited about starting this blog- even though it has taken me a very long time to work up the courage to! I think it will be a fun way to express my makeup and skincare obession (and it might mean I won't bore my boyfriend any longer with endless beauty chat).
So here's to many more posts and exciting products ahead!
