Hana. I have worn it twice in the past 5 years - once for Prom, and once for a musical that I was in.
In many ways I am glad that I haven’t gotten so accustomed to it, that I feel unnatural and bare with out it. At camp there were girls who would need their makeup perfect- they’d get up half an hour early just to do it. At school there are girls around the mirror nearly every passing period. I’m not saying that I am a slob, or don’t care about my appearance, just that I don’t devote my time to that.
Still, it is hard, going to school sometimes knowing I looked ragged and tired, and my sister has a perfect, perfectly made up face. Its hard not to compare. She’s so pretty, kinda like she just walked straight off a magazine cover.
She is in show choir, so all the time that I have spent packing my bag for meet, or planning my runs, she’s basically getting perfect, or practicing looking and sounding perfect.
We are different people, and I am proud to be her sister. But the comparison game is one that you never really win.

Go girl! It’s not necessary. Inner beauty matters more! I’d rather people react in a good way when they see that I have some one once in a while than wear make up ALL the time and don’t for one day then end up SCARING everyone….. LOL

You are beautiful without the makeup! And if you are running most of the time, you will just sweat it all off anyways. More girls like you need to show that we all don’t need makeup all the time to feel beautiful. Don’t change for society :)

Comparing yourself and your sister is like comparing a green apple to a red apple. Yes, you are related and share many of the same features but you both are unique and following your own goals/purposes. =D
