Eyeshadow matching eye colour?

Hey guys! What's up? :)

It's been a long time since I last posted, but school actually takes a lot of my time.

Today's post is going to be about make-up. Eye make up.

There are some colours that match better with your eye colour than others, so if you don't know which colours match better with you.

After doing some reserach, I noticied that most of the people agree with the theory that the complementary colours of your eyes are the ones that match the best.

To make it easier to understand, below is a colour wheel that is used to see which colours you should use.






But, to be honest, I don't think that following this "rule" is actually a good way to define your make up.

I'll give you my example; I'm green-eyed and I clearly don't see myself with pink or purple eyeshadow.

In my opinion, a gold soft colour fits every eye colour and it's actually a very pretty colour (specially in autumn and winter) that fits everyday, whether you dress casual or you're going to some event. 

So, to sum up my idea, I'm on the side that you should use whatever you feel comfortable in and don't take random things as this as the right option (of course always with limits).

Stress because of school

Hey guys! What's up? :)

As you could have noticed, I haven't posted in a while. But I have a valid reason.


School started 3 weeks ago and I'm already under so much pressure... High school is such a responsability... This year I don't have any free afternoon. My schedule is completely full with extra classes and stuff.


Stress is a terrible thing. When people are under stress, they tend to do things not in the best way because they're tired and zoned out.


To me, a very important thing to relieve stress is to have a hobby. Something that clears your head of your problems and helps you to relax; it's a great escape.


My hobbies are ballet and guitar lessons. I really enjoy spending the little free time I have there. And of course, it's a great excuse to pause my studying :P


It's a fact that sports can improve your school performance. Why don't you give it a try?

Caring about what people say about us?

Hey guys! What's up? :)

Today was very hard to choose a title to this post. I wanted to talk about caring about what people say about us. Yap, that's gonna be the tittle. But as a question.

I'm going to do a little introduction about why I choose this topic today. First, in order to my last post "First Impressions" I told you that it's important to make a good impression of yourself. But is that really necessary?

Today, in Philosofy we were kinda debating some stuff and this one girl made me think about this. She told us that we shouldn't care about what people say about us, what we wear, which people we're with... and yeah, she's right because in the end we'll always have someone judging us or not liking what we do/did. The reality is this one. We can't please the whole world at the same time.

By the way, returning to the question in italic, in my opinion we souldn't care much about what people say, but I think that what I said in my last post is very important. If we aren't nice to other people we'll end up having no one loving us, and being with people who like us is one of the ways to feel fulfilled.

So as you could notice, I'm kinda divided when it comes to this, I think that the right thing to do is caring enough. Caring until where it makes you happy. When caring about what other people might say or think makes you feel unconfortable with yourself when you weren't before, you may stop and rethink it.

First impressions

Hey guys! What's up? :)

Today was my first school day, so I brought a topic kinda about it. First impressions.

To me, first impressions are very important because that's the opinion about someone that stays in your mind forever, or at least for a very long time.

I hate to give a bad first impression of myself. A bad attitude, a comment that might slip through your lips without a mean intention, other people may take that as something negative.

When I meet someone for the first time, I always think "It's better to give a good first impression, be a nice person and be true than to be a rude person with bad attitudes in the first meeting because that's the idea that people get of you".

And that's true. If you are always nice and you're kind to other people, when you're in a bad day, you can have a not-so-good attitude that people will forgive you because they'll think you're just in a bad day... After all we all have the right to have bad days. But if you're always a bad person, once you're nice to someone, people will not believe you, they'll think you're faking it.

What I mean is, always remember to be nice. It's so good to be surrounded by people with good vibes.

Life dreams

Hey guys! What's up? :)

We all have qualities and talents as singing, dancing, painting, drawing, playing a sport...


When we face the big question in our lives "What do I want to do when I grow up?", it can be really terrifying. As kids, we all know what we wanna be: teachers, doctors, hairdressers... but by the time, we change our minds and that question starts to make us confused and overwhelmed.


When I was younger, that question was very easy for me to answer. We used to go along with what our friends wanted to be, picturing our lives working with them and being friends forever. It happens that the most of the time that doesn't happen. At all.


For me, making the right choice is very important. I live in the fear of disappointing someone, myself included. Specially when it comes to my future. Being happy is one of my biggest life goals and feeling good with the job I decided for my life is part of it.


Lots of people have a dream job but they don't want to go after it because it doesn't seem right just because singing, dancing, etc, are just hobbies. Well, it does seem right. When you love what you do it's not a hobby nor a job. It's something that you do with passion and that's what makes you happy. Then why don't go after it? What are you waiting for? You know that life that you always dreamed of? Go live it!


Sometimes friends and parents may bring you down and it makes your trying twice harder, but don't let anyone tell you it can't be done if it's you dream. Always respecting them, obviously.
