Confessions of a beauty blogger tag

 
I was looking at Abbie's blog over at kittensintophats. You all should really check out her blog. So on her blog I saw the "Confessions of a beauty blogger tag". I love tags so I decided to do it. 
When did you start your blog?
In June of last year I first set up my blogger account, but I officially started October 19 of last year.
 
Have you had any other online presence before? (like other blogs or a Youtube channel)
Yes. I have a YouTube channel (since last year), but I have not uploaded anything at the moment. 
 
Why did you start your blog?
I wanted to inspire other people to follow their dreams. In the process of starting this blog, I remembered my own dreams and I wanted to follow them. I also started to blog because I wanted to connect with other bloggers and share my interests with other people. I wanted to make YouTube videos, but I realized blogging was best for me. I feel like it's a little easier, than "talking to a camera". Besides I rather watch videos than making them!


When did you become serious about starting a blog?
I realized I liked blogging a lot. Also, people were actually reading my blog and that really encouraged me to keep going. Most importantly I remembered why I started blogging. 
 
What was your first post?
My first post was an introduction to my blog!
 
Where do you see your blog in a year?
It is really hard to answer. Honestly, I do not know. I know as a blogger I see myself being more experienced with posting more frequently
 
What is the most rewarding thing to you about blogging?
Being apart of the blogging community and interacting with other bloggers. I have also made friends through blogging. 
 
What is the most discouraging thing that happens to you?
I know being a known blogger doesn't happen fast, but sometimes I get discouraged. Because I do not have a lot of comments on my posts I feel like no one likes what I post. Sometimes I feel like I am doing something wrong, but I guess patience is the key.
 
What's your lasting motivation/inspiration?
Besides family, bloggers/blogger friends. I see a lot of them posting 3 times a day almost and
that encourages me. They still keep going whether they have 20 comments, 4 comments, or 0 comments. Sometimes I had a feeling of wanting to stop because I didn't know if blogging was for me. Honestly I still do not know; but I am going to continue because I am motivated.

Helpful Posts/Sites For Bloggers

Being a blogger is not easy at all, whether it's a hobby or a job. Every blogger works so hard to put out quality work. But sometimes it can be a struggle. While in a blogging rut I came across a lot of posts that have helped me gain confidence. These posts also helped me realize my creativity; all I needed to do was use my noggin! But before you click on the links below, I'm going to explain what these links mean to me. I don't want to bore you but I'm hoping these will help you too.   Everytime I get into a blogging rut I always look at my blog design. Thinking that the design I have is always the problem, I go and I spend money to change it. In reality the major problem was myself. Now don't get me wrong, designs I've had were beautiful it just wasn't for me. During my long "break" or breakdown I did a lot of searching. I'm pretty sure you all heard of Etsy, am I right? This is where I found two shops that have helped me tremendous...

Color Theory:8 Piece Ultimate Eyeliner Set

I love Eyeliner; eyeliner is my go to look. Anytime I had eyeliner my eyes would look like their dressed up! The only eyeliner I have ever wore up until this point was black; because that was the only color I thought was out (crazy of me right?!) Anyway lately I've seen many girls wear different color eyeliner, mainly on YouTube; so I knew immediately I would have to try it. After a while I forgot all about them, until Christmas of 2012 when I received them. I was so excited because my Mom didn't even know I wanted them; now that I am thinking I didn't even ask!  Now I can match up the colors with eyeshadow. Enough of that here's the box they came in and I have the colors listed below. On the back it just talks about the different styles you can do with the eyeliners. For example: The famous winged look (instructions for it are on the back).                                ...

Finding My Passion For Blogging Again

  At some point in time, when your heart isn’t into something you should take a break. Blogging is great and I couldn’t see myself without it. However sometimes it can get overwhelming and that’s what happened to me this year. For about eight months I have not blogged and I thought I was a bad person for that. I have realized that it was best to take the long break. In doing so, I have found so many things I love to talk about. I was holding myself back because I put a label on myself, wanting to be known as a beauty blogger. Sure I attached the lifestyle part, but honestly I don’t really know what that means.  During this year I had time to reflect on where I wanted my blog to go and whether I even wanted to write anymore. Honestly the motivation to blog was not there at all and at that time, I really didn’t care if I continued. I did not want to look at my blog or deal with it. For me I was tired of putting in the work and not getting anything in return. Meaning no ...
