Pursuit of Happiness

Hi Everyone!
Today I am going to talk about something that is very important to me. That is happiness. I see so many people who are not happy and it makes me sad. I believe everyone deserves to be happy. If you are going through a tough time....you will get over that hard time. You may not see it now....but I promise you that things will turn out for the best. You just have to believe that good things will happen. Motivate yourself to live a happy lifestyle. But also, you have to believe in yourself. The number one tip to happiness in my opinion, is to believe in yourself.

For a long time, I did not believe in myself. I am 17 years old and I still have a lot of insecurities but everyone else does. To this day I am still struggling with that but I have learned that if I motivate myself, stay positive through the hardships and don't have a negative mindset, happiness will be a main focus in my life.

Some tips that I have learned to stay positive and be happy is self motivation. I highly suggest you do something you love. Even if you have a busy lifestyle, one day or maybe even one hour a week could be dedicated to what you love to do. Whether it is doing yoga , reading, surfing, snowboarding, playing a video game, watching YouTube videos, or just hanging out with your family. Doing something that your truly enjoy can make a huge difference on your outlook on life.

Now the positive mindset. It is so hard for people think positive sometime when things are not hard. But one thing you can do is just breathe. It is so simple but if you breathe, it can relax you a little in the moment and you can try to get through the situation. Another thing you can do is have a mantra. Whether it's, " Happiness is bliss.", " You are amazing.", " Be proud of yourself." Simple mantras like that can change your whole outlook on life. One mantra I say to myself is, "You are Sophia and no one can change that." Sometimes I have to say it multiple times but soon I feel a little better about myself. You all should try it. See if it works.

Doing these little things can change your outlook on life. It's hard to think past the hardships in life but you can do it. Stay positive. Be happy. If you put your mind on something, you can succeed and you will. Have a wonderful weekend!

Carpe Diem,
Sophia

Battle of the BB Creams!

Hello everyone! Now as you all can tell, I love the Battle of the series. The reason why is because I can review a bunch of products for you all in one blog post. Since it is summer and not many of you want to wear a ton of make up, I thought I would tell you my favorite BB creams. I also want to let you know that there might not be many blog posts in the month of July. The reason is because I am in college at the moment and I am super busy. I will try to put up as many as I can but I just want to let you all know! :) I hoped you all had a wonderful June! What is a BB cream?    Now BB stands for blemish balm. A BB cream is supposed to have a moisturizer, primer, concealer, skin treatment and foundation all in one. BB creams have been all the rage for a while now but not many people talk about them anymore.   NOW LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLE! Round 1: This is the  L'oreal Magic Skin Beautifier BB Cream . This BB cream was one of the first BB creams that ...

Must Have Nail Polish for Spring!

Hi everyone! I hope you all are doing well. Now that I have started talking about spring, I am so ready for it!  My last post  was about my favorite spring trends for 2014 and today I want to talk about nail polish! I love nail polish. It makes me so happy when I am writing notes and all of a sudden I look down and see my nails painted in a pretty color. It brightens my day! It's all about the small things in life. Essie's Play Date This color just screams spring to me. This is one of my all time favorite nail polishes and every time spring and summer comes around, this is the first nail polish I put on.  You're Such a Budapest This color is gorgeous. I do not personally own this color....yet! I will be getting it this spring because this is like a lavender/periwinkle purple. This color is a perfect color to transition color from winter to spring. Essie's Sand Tropez  This is another color that I don't own.....but I will. I honestly think ...

First Impression: Sephora Favorites Meet Your Match!

Hello everyone! I am super excited to be doing my first first impression blog post! Yay! Now I got this a while ago but I have not really touched it or played around with it. A first impression is basically my opinion on these products and how I think of them the first time I swatch them, use them , stuff like that. Now this is a value set from Sephora and it is the  Sephora Favorites Meet Your Match .  Now this was pretty popular among some YouTubers a while back and I really liked the products and wanted to try them and it was only $25 for 6 sample size products. Which I thought was a pretty good deal.  Packaging:  I love the packaging. I thought it stands out because of the bright colors and the interesting print on the cardboard. I also love the concept of matching you lip gloss to your nail polish. I thought it was a really fun idea for summer.  Match 1: This is the first lip product that I want to tell you all about an...
