Hidden Beauté Co.

Happy (late) international woman’s day to very important women in my life. Every one of you hold unique value in my life and I’m so thankful for the lessons and love I’ve gained in each of you.

IT’S OKAY.
It’s okay that it doesn’t look like you want yet. It’s okay if you feel like no one understands. It’s okay that you saw yourself being further ahead. It’s not the business of others what your walk and will for/with God is. It’s yours and his together, then from there your spouse. Even without your spouse there is a relationship you should have with Jesus that involves only you and him.

We are human! We have visions of our own. We have timelines of our own. We have goals of our own. Be still and listen to him. Listen to his words and follow his will. Friend it is so much better than the vision you have for yourself. But we have free will, and we must choose to follow.

Patience isn’t an easy thing but it is rewarded in the kingdom. Lamentations 3:25-27 "The Lord is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him. It is good that one should wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord. It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth." We are called to seek and wait! Just remember, your walk isn’t another in the same. Thats the beautiful point! So don’t focus on those around you. Remove the pressure. Better yet, surrender it! The effort you are applying will be rewarded in his time always☀️💛

I feel like when you work insanely hard for something you should be allowed to shamelessly show it off, so here I am wearing confidence. Because I’ve worked so hard, cried a lot, had set backs, but pushed through every time.
It’s for me, a combination of hard work, mental strength, .fit and
I started focusing on myself from the inside out and seeing it come to fruition feels so rewarding.

Finally feeling like myself again playing in different products and challenging my technique! I’m a huge believer in L E A R N I N G for myself. If I’m intrigued or curious about something you’ll find me quick to research multiple testimonies or articles and form my own opinion outside of the noise around me. It’s a good and a bad thing really. It means sometimes I push against the tides a little but I don’t know how to be any different 🤷🏼‍♀️

I like to learn, read, and listen closely. I want the good and the bad on it. Because I’m the way I am, I believe others may feel the same way🌟 I’m hosting an educational page tomorrow all about plexus, my journey, and my {honest} opinion about all the ins and outs.

You’ll have zero pressure to buy, you’ll get to silently get your curiosity fix, you’ll have me for any questions that arise, you may win a prize or two, and feel no need to come with any awkward conversation escape routes 😜 feel free to comment or DM me personally to be added!

Ps. it wouldn’t be if there weren’t baby toys and diaper boxes in all of my pictures 🤣

Okay so, I kind of went W A Y out of my comfort zone and bought red lipstick. I’m such a n**e lip gal but have been craving new + exciting and I’ve found it in this perfect lip called “hotshot”. I’m OBSESSED! Such long lasting wear and such a great red! Red lips are hard to find so if you’re on the search be sure to try it out!!

Been lovin’ this tot for 10 years strong. Miss you

Love ya, stud

Be happy 🌟
Don’t just say it, do it. Since the pageant I have been so incredibly hard on myself. I stepped on stage for the pageant at 104 lbs. I worked so hard to get from 23% body fat to 13% the day of show. Well gaining weight back to a sustainable and life enjoying level was hard. I wanted to be a stick, continue to see my full rib cage almost (muscle was visible I wasn’t anorexic) and seeing all the definition was heaven for me. So much I realized it was time to go back to appreciating the journey I’ve been on to get here.
I get mean comments saying “stop acting like you understand what it’s like being too big”, “you were probably just born skinny”, “it won’t work for me”, whatever the case was. Well I finally found my pictures I took the day I got my plexus products in. And wow... 1.) I never knew how I actually looked until it was gone. 2.) I haven’t been giving myself near the credit I deserve. No matter your journey. Don’t forget to document. You never know how much you’ll appreciate it. Also, quit being so hard on yourself and realize that ANY step forward is still a step.

Confession: trying to enjoy close ups of your face is really hard. Y’all I promise I’m trying to get the hang of this whole “capture the makeup look” stuff. Doing the makeup is the easy part, getting it to look like all these big MUA accounts do in a picture is freaking hard 😂
Anywho, I was asked about cooler tones and decided to go with some blue to show you can still use them and not look like the early 2000’s pale blue eyeshadow girl 😬 I used the Morphe x Jaclyn Hill palette and used the Navy matte in the corners paired with peachy tones everywhere else! I plan on a fun glitter navy in the near future💙
Ps. I didn’t lie about videos but wow is it hard recording, splicing, editing etc!? I’m so new to it and I’m not good at being a beginner at something 😅 the looks you see me sharing will all be up on my site and in my highlights very very soon! 🌟
