You are unique!

The reason why I'm writing this post is a video that I saw yesterday. A few months ago a Kylie Jenner lip challenge was popular. My opinion hasn't change since the day I've seen it, but I had too many obligations so I couldn't write about it here. There is still people sucking the glass and posting in on Instagram. The point of the video I've watched was why would you suck a glass when you can use makeup to get bigger lips or Kylie Jenner lips. And that is true, there are tutorials on YouTube on how to get bigger lips if you want them.

Jučer sam naletjela na jedan video zbog kojeg i pišem ovaj post. Prije par mjeseci bio je popularan Kylie Jenner lip challenge. I tada sam imala isto mišljenje o njemu kao i sada, ali zatrpana obvezama nisam ništa napisala na blogu. I još uvijek na Instagramu ima ljudi koji sisaju čašu. Uglavnom, glavna poanta tog videa koji sam gledala je zašto sisati čašu kada možeš upotrijebiti šminku da dobiješ pune usne odnosno Kylie Jenner usne. I to je istina, na YouTube-u ima puno tutoriala kako postići pune usne ako ih već želite.

I don't get it, why would everyone like to have Kylie Jenner lips when most people are claiming that they have their own style, that they are not doing what most people are doing and so on. Unfourtanetly, a lot of girls (I've seen boys doing this challenge too!) are not happy with how they look like or they just want to do what's trending now and maybe Kylie Jenner is their role model. I don't know. I have a lot of questions on my mind. Why, why would you suck a glass or anything that's near you when it has gone wrong in so many cases? Do you really want bruises around your lips?

Ono što meni nije jasno je zašto svi žele imati usne kao Kylie Jenner kada svi tvrde da imaju svoj stil, da nisu povodljivi i tako dalje. Nažalost, puno djevojaka (vidjela sam i dečke koji su radili Kylie Jenner lip challenge!) ili nije zadovoljno kako izgleda ili samo želi ono što je sada u trendu, a možda im je i Kylie Jenner uzor. Ne znam. Puno mi se pitanja vrti po glavi. Zašto, ali zašto sisati čašu ili što ti se već nađe pri ruci kada je u većini slučajeva to pošlo po zlu? Stvarno želiš modrice oko usana?

Also, the society in which we live imposes how a girl should look. She "obviously" needs to have big, full lips, long eyelashes, perfect nose... What about those who do not have that? They, in most cases, feel less worth. I'm not perfect, I admit it. Nobody is. I don't have a perfect nose and I don't have full lips, but I'm not going to suck a glass because of it. No, thanks.

Također, društvo koje nas okružuje nameće nam kako bi djevojka trebala izgledati. "Očito" mora imati pune usne, dugačke trepavice, savršen nos... A što je s onima koji to nemaju? Oni se, u većini slučajeva, osjećaju manje vrijednima. Nisam savršena, priznajem. Nije nitko. Nemam savršen nos i nemam pune usne, ali da zbog toga idem sisati čašu. Ne, hvala. 

You shouldn't wait for someone to tell you are pretty. Being beautiful doesn't mean being perfect on the outside it also means being pretty on the inside. Being beautful on the inside is art. We are all special on our own way. We all have that something. We are all different and the point is not being like everyone else. No. Am I less worth because I don't look like the girl from the magazine? I'm not and  neither are you.

Ne moraju vam drugi govoriti da ste lijepi. Ljepota nije samo vanjska. Umijeće je biti lijep iznutra. Svatko od nas poseban je na svoj način. Svi mi imamo ono nešto. Svi smo stvoreni drugačiji, nije poanta da svi budemo isti. Ne. Jesam li ja manje vrijedna zato što ne izgledam kao ona cura iz časopisa? Nisam, a nisi ni ti.

I use makeup because I love it. I love to experimente with it. It sometimes help me to have more confidence. But I can also go out without makeup and feel comfortable. That's something I learned. Makeup only helps me to emphasize what I have. Sometimes I try to recreate someone's makeup or try to do the hairstyle I liked on them. But that's it. I don't try too much about everything look exactly the same because I'm not someone's copy. 

Koristim šminku zato što je volim. I volim eksperimentirati s njom. Pomaže mi da nekad imam više samopouzdanja. Ali isto tako mogu izaći bez šminke i osjećat ću se također ugodno. To je nešto što sam naučila s vremenom. Šminka mi pomaže da samo istaknem ono što imam. Ponekad pokušam rekreirati nečiji makeup ili frizuru koja mi se svidjela na njima. Ali to je to. Ne trudim se previše  da sve izgleda isto jer nisam nečija kopija.

I should probably stop typing this post. What do you think?

I mislim da je tu vrijeme da stanem s tipkanjem ovog posta. Što vi mislite?
