The Power of Makeup by Anna Akana

I don’t often watch makeup tutorials on the internet. When my friend Kiri sent me this, I was busy and didn’t watch it straight away, but I wish I had because it’s hands down the best video about makeup I’ve ever seen.

Anna Akana before and after makeup

Anna Akana is an actor/film maker/generally awesome gal  Her video about how to “put on your face” is an honest look at how we present ourselves to the world. Even if you couldn’t care less about makeup you should watch this – it’s brilliant (and not so much about makeup as you might have guessed from my commentary so far).

My favourite part? The bit about doing the cat eye – check it out below…

Whether you choose to wear makeup or not, I really do think that Anna’s video carries an important message – confidence and how you carry yourself is going to affect all aspects of your life. Don’t just take care of the physical, look after the mental, emotional and spiritual parts of you as well.

Isn’t this a great video? Definitely something I think everyone should see – please feel free to share it using the buttons below!

    This made my day! I meant to watch it last night and got distracted, but I’m SO glad you posted your AC outfit and I remembered to go back and watch it! The cat eye bit made me spit my drink everywhere haha
