So I uploaded this as a curiosity and sudden realization



And my god, when I saw this afternoon the response, like 400+ comments? A hot debate I created about beauty, being natural or not. I kinda feel like a troll :la:

But on to the point,

Please, I just want to say before anyone jumps into conclusions, I am neutral on the matter.
I don't care if wearing make-up is good or bad, or makes you look better or worse.
I'm just stating the obvious; people can be transformed by make-up.

My purpose of this is to actually show make-up is another form of ART, and to me, being the most important tool in my work, makes wonders.
Sometimes being natural  is boring (NOT ugly I say), and my goal is to create characters that can't exist but are born and molded from my head to you by makeup. And they are not always beautiful, not to me. But I don't care.

I don't know if any of you get it, what I'm trying to say, or if it makes any sense.
But whatever, thought I had to say it. :)

thank you for everything.

Cristina

Today I realised that we all have Spirits. Some people are just too blind to see them.

'I can see your halo, halo, halo...'

Those stuck-up bullies at school are just jealous of you cause your prettier than them.

Cristinnnnaaaa!! I have a question that may turn into other questions!

Do you have some special way that you'd prefer me to ask? I wouldn't want you to be irritated that I broke some 'Ask questions here or never' rule but I have to go soon, I can't look for it! <3 Please let me know if you're alright with some questions once you have time~
