Feeling Inspired by The Rose

In the winter, far beneath the bitter snow, lies a seed that with the sun's love in the Spring, Becomes "The Rose".

Inspirational words from the classic Bette Midler song, "The Rose".
The Rose once upon a time was nothing but a seed.  it did not show, It could not be understood what would  become of it yet.   In time, with patience through the cold, through dullness, maybe even hardship and trouble, when given love, care and the power of sunshine it will become The Rose.
Like the rose, it is the same with ourselves and even our situations.  When things do not seem interesting or inspirational.  When times seem difficult or sad.  In cold times and in lonely times....With patience, with love and nourishment.  With  acceptance and persistence you and your situation also would become The Rose.
This meaningful  bloom is my Spring inspiration.
Rose on the eyes, rose on the lips.  Live Spring with an awakening of you.

Feeling Happy with Mango!

Feeling Happy! Feeling Like Spring today after all the cold weather here in Cyprus. Makes you feel new when the weather feels good!
As I sit this morning and eat my FRESH MANGO and POMEGRANATE Yogurt I think, YUMMM and also how this is a time for Fresh transition and growth.
Many people create new goals on New Year. I like to create what I like to call a rebirth of myself or Upgrade of my life at the beginning of Spring. With Easter holiday around the corner, many are following a cleansing with healthy food.  Some are more extreme than others but mostly eating vegetables, fruit, grains,nuts,legumes. As myself  my diet consists of this the majority of the year but this never the less inspires me always to think of my life more at this season and what new thoughts of growth I have for myself, my family and my environment. This is a time not only of cleansing your body but cleansing your soul, freeing your spirit and getting rid of all unhealthy habits and creating new ones.
I have been following Yoga, Tai chi, Strength Building , healthy eating, dance, Holistic subjects and of course anything that has to do with with Fashion and Beauty since the early 90's. Now days I  just take it all a step up. Every year I grow older but so does my mind, my wisdom. Every year I get more inspired. Every year I add. We should never stop growing or bettering ourselves. As life changes, so should we grow in a positive way with it. That is what I call a Healthy and Beautiful Life.
As far as Beauty with Makeup is concerned, I am really inspired to create healthy skin when doing makeup on someone. I want to see a woman's face show a true healthy glow! Her face to reflect, " I am proud to be a woman and I feel good!"  Now saying to your self I am beautiful is very good but saying ..."I feel Good...I feel Happy!".. is even better! So this Spring I am getting all my glow and  happy makeup tools out!! Creating Fresh Bright Face by Day. Inspired by the sweet, King of fruits-The Mango!
Mango is a rich fruit, with an abundance of health benefits! see below top 10 from www.care2.com
So the Mango wins me over this season..Inside and Out! In a few days I'll be sharing my evening makeup inspirations! ;0  Katia x
