Yourself 5 years ago? (makeup, beauty, skincare related)
Sorry if I placed this in the wrong category :/

Mine would be that brows are important, so fill em in!

Genesis O.
Omg what a creative topic lol.. wow I was a mess so definitely I would tell myself to calm down on the makeup, 5 years ago I was 16 wearing black eyeshadow and heavy black liner. I would suggest very minimal makeup and to diffuse any harsh lines.

good one Genesis!

Oooooh man. okay, 5 years ago I was 15 and my favorite thing in the world was the UD liquid liner in Radium (the vintage, badass packaging) and honestly in terms of makeup I'd tell myself to keep frickin doing it, because it gave me the confidence to wear whatever I wanted and THAT is something I will never give up.
I would, however, tell myself to get my act together with skincare and to make sure that I actually established a routine before my blackheads set in around 17.

Lmfao! "so fill em in!" that just cracked me up.
I would tell myself as far as fashion, to just wear what I want. don't be afraid to look good or draw attention to myself. still working on that lol. makeup wise, don't just line the bottom lash line! lol. & to get on beautylish so I know the different types of makeup, how to apply them, & their purposes. skincare wise, get into a good skincare routine. it's beneficial yeeears later. still working on that too lol.

I would tell myself to stop using so much black liner in my waterline, stop using hard candy tiki bronzer as a bronzer (what was I thinking??), eyebrows are important! and STOP sleeping in your makeup! take care of your skin!
as for fashion, I wish I had some style. everything I wore made no sense. it was always super loose shirts, and mom jeans. everyone thought I was trying to hide a pregnancy. - _-

To learn to blend my black as hell eyeshadow! And to try and match my foundation better :)

Breeze T.
Mine would be "wash your face at night, take it all off ALWAYS! And put down the tweezers." If it were 7 years ago, I'd tell myself to never attempt cutting my own hair. That was the worst ID picture ever!
So weird, this time 5 years ago I was 16 and getting to know my current boyfriend...man! I was so young!
Oct 14, 2014
Rissa G.
Hmm..5 years ago..I was 14, so! All I really wore was typical winged liner, mascara, and lipgloss..it was fine..but boy oh boy I would tell myself to lay off the damn tweezers and it's NOT okay to use shavers for my precious brows either. Rocked the thin, barely there, brow look all middle school. Hahaha yikes!
Oct 14, 2014
Rissa G.
As for fashion, I'd tell myself to actually give a crap for myself. All of wear was wife beaters, sweats, and/or khaki skinny dickies.. my Nike air force1, chucks, or Nike Cortez LOL.
Oct 14, 2014
M G.
I would also say to take better care of my skin.
Oct 14, 2014
Lauren G.
I never made too terrible of makeup mistakes, although the only color eyeshadow I would wear was bronze for some reason? Lol. I used to sleep in my makeup a lot. I take much better care of my skin now and I realize how important it is.

Even with the sharpie brow still beautiful Yolanda. Janelle I'm with you there.

Roz X.
I'd say exercise daily and eat less meat/bread/dairy. Luckily, I'm more fit today than I was five years ago, but a headstart would have been nice..lol

I feel you Rozberry.

Along with a good amount of the advice above... I would most likely tell myself to not let my dog lick my face and to embrace my natural curls. As well as wearing what I wanted! (That cliche of you listen to rock you must dress like a rocker and etc. ) I wouldn't have tossed away a good 30 lbs of clothes and saved so much money.

Don't over pluck your brows! Wash your face every single morning and night. Learn how to apply eyeshadow correctly lol. Stop frying your hair it looks better in it's natural state anyway and it's going to be extremely damaged one day lol.

I would of told myself to worry more about my physical appearance. Drink more water and less junk food. And no matter how tired I was always take of all of my makeup before bed time.
Oct 15, 2014
Lauren H.
I would sit myself down and have a good talk about how important brows are! Also, I would tell myself to appreciate and make the most of what I have. I'm only ever going to be an older, wrinklier version of myself so I wasted a lot of time wishing I looked like other people lol.

Ella B.
Wash your face and moisturize! Your skin won't be perfect forever! lol.
Oct 15, 2014
Genevieve D.
I would tell myself to,go see a professional to determine my skin,type! I've been using product for oily skin since I was a teen and I know now that I have combo skin, so I have big red spot on my cheek cause they are all dehydrated!
and fashion wise I would only tell myself : don't worry, you will feel beautiful and will accept those gorgeous curves very soon <3

Drink water! Don't eat junk food! Get a skin routine! You are only getting older so put yourself together time flies!

I'd tell myself to wash my face every day and moisturize. I didn't wash my face ever because I didn't wear face makeup way back when, and only moisturized when I got out of the shower in the winter. My skin looks like hell because I didn't start a proper routine until about a year and a half ago, and I'm 24. I'd also tell myself to stop trying to straighten my hair so much (because for the longest time I failed miserably at straightening and taking proper care of my hair and it looked awful) and embrace my curls.

Drink more water, quit touching my face & hair. Don't rely on harsh skin products. Wear sunscreen! Blend that eyeshadow girl, fill in your empty brows , & lipstick is fun. (I was afraid of lipstick)
