As women, we all want to feel good about ourselves, but sometimes we are also our own worst critics. When I have a new outfit to wear, get my hair done, wear new makeup, or a pretty piece of jewelry, I automatically have this sense of “wow I think I look pretty darn good today!” I don’t know why these things make me feel better, but they do. I think it’s something men probably will never understand, but I also know my husband notices when I make an extra effort to look my best!
He does notice the little things, like when I take extra time on myself. Sometimes he comments when I fix my hair a certain way or wear a new outfit. But, he always notices when I take the time to focus on my makeup. And that in return makes me feel good inside. Even though I am not that 20 year old wrinkle free gal anymore, I still feel confident and beautiful when I take time and try to look my best!
I recently had the opportunity to try the new COVERGIRL LashPerfection™ Mascara. I love makeup as you all know! I was so excited to try this product! My husband’s favorite feature about me is my eyes. So, I always like to play them up… particularly on special occasions.

As the years go by, I not only want to look and feel better, but I want others to see that, too. As women, we always want to put our best foot forward and have that inner confidence. You don’t need makeup to have inner confidence… but, it might just give you that extra sparkle. And when you have that confidence inside, others will notice, too. Whether it’s a new outfit, hairdo, or glammed up makeup, the most important thing is that you feel good about yourself and live each moment to the fullest!

I recently went to my high school reunion. While I usually do wear make-up on most days I made sure that I was dressed nicely and that my make-up was perfect. I had not worn make-up in high school (as it was all girls and we wore uniforms).
I wanted to feel good about myself too and this gave me the extra oomphf that I needed.

Every day! Mascara is my favorite part of my make up routine. Using cg's mascara in the purple tube now, love it!
Makeup just helps me feel better. :) Without it, I don't feel put together, even if if I'm just at home with the kids.
I don't know if I've ever used makeup to add confidence (power from within ladies!), but I do love having long,dark sexy lashes to flash "the look" at my super cute hubs!
Makeup gives me confidence every day - don't like leaving home without it.

Every day! My mother always told all four of us girls to never leave the house without make-up. She said it would make you feel better and more confident even when you didn't feel that way. At 31 years, I totally still agree! Even if it's just powder, gloss and mascara, it makes a huge difference! Having blonde, but super long lashes, I love to darken them and draw attention to them! And it always seems to catch my hubby's attention when I bat them his way! ;)

I was really shy about going to prom with my crush since I was a bit tomboyish but a glamorous makeover turned me into a princess for the night and the makeup was subtle yet stunning. I felt so completely beautiful!:)

I love wearing makeup because it makes me more confident everyday!!
If I wear nothing else on my face, I try to wear mascara. It makes me look awake and polished!
When I went to my Senior Prom I felt more confident after I had my makeup professional done

I am a mom to 7 month old twin boys, and time is scarce, but I try and find time to at least throw some mascara on daily.
When I was a little girl I wore clear mascara, eye shadow and lip gloss to a dance recital. I thought I was the coolest girl there and I danced so great because I was all prettied up! I used to tell everyone it was b/c of my makeup!!
Now I'm sure all the little girls dance with tons of makeup, but back when I was little girls didn't wear a ton of makeup.
I seriously thought I was all that. And clear mascara...haha! So funny!

I definitely needed makeup when I went to a job fair a few weeks back. I stressed so much the night before that I hardly slept. The makeup made me look alive :)
Working in an office environment is when make-up gave me the most confidence. Mascara is my favorite.

I have never been that great at applying makeup, but recently I have learned a lot of tips and I love makeup now! I love playing up my eyes as well!
Bumping into an old boyfriend I was really glad I was wearing make-up!

My Revlon Super Lustrous gloss in the color Peach Petal always make me feel good and confident when I wear it because it's the perfect nude and it's not sticky. It's just as appropriate for work as it is a night out.

I had my makeup professionally done for my wedding and it helped make my day brighter and, since I cried all the way down the isle, I am glad they used waterproof makeup! LOL I knew I would cry a lot during the wedding, so that was one less thing to worry about!

When I stood up with my sister at her wedding last fall!
I used a lot more makeup than I normally use one night during an auction and I received so many compliments....which gave me more confidence.
Mostly just in my school years but I do need my mascara today for sure.

After returning to the country from one year in Europe, I had to look for a job. I hadn't worn make up while overseas but I decided to put on my professional face and head with confidence into those job interviews. I was lucky enough to find a temporary placement that lead to a permanent job in my field.
