#NOMAKEUPSELFIE BBLOGGER TAG – CANCER AWARENESS
When Mary, of StrikeAPose posted her #nomakeupselfie on her blog, I knew I have to do it because I have a soft spot for people who are suffering from cancer.
My mom got diagnosed with colon cancer last year, she had to undergo an operation to remove the cyst that blocks her colon and she was able to survive it. She is still doing routine checkup just to make sure that she will continue to be cancer-free. I know how hard it is to have a loved one suffering from it. Good thing, my mom is always a strong woman, and we all love and support her, all the way. I don’t see her having self-pity, keeps the positive attitude, and I really admire her for that. I love her so much and I can never trade her for anything!
To support this campaign for cancer awareness, I am posting my #nomakeupselfie.
I am not sure if we have a similar campaign here in the Philippines, but if you are someone from UK, you can donate using these codes:
Text BEAT to 70099 – Donated £3
Text PINK to 50300 – Donated £4
Or go to Cancer Research UK and you can donate online to become part of it.
I tag everyone to do a #nomakeupselfie post to support this campaign.
Have a wonderful day!

No makeup but with still very pronounced lashes! Inggit much! 😀
Yey for the support for Cancer Awareness. Cancer is very very scary. 🙁
Juvy
Thanks Fred. Most of the time, my lashes look very dramatic when I apply mascara. But, I love them anyway. 🙂 No need for falsies. 😀

I agree with Fred–taray ng lashes! Haha. And I sure am glad that your mother survived cancer. You better have an annual or bi-annual general check-up. Cancer can be genetic. Better safe, you know 🙂
Juvy
Salamat Becs! Hehe. 🙂 I am born with a LOT of hair (TMI!) Buti na lang long lashes are flattering. Hehe. 😀
Tama ka, check up is a must. Mataas na rin yung risk namin magkakapatid. But, I am not really afraid of getting sick, or dying. Haha. Weird as I am. 😀

Juvy

I’ve been meaning to do something similar for so long! Not connected to cancer, but more along the lines of real beauty. It’s just not right to post them because my camera overexposes my skin a bit so it looks more perfect and flawless than it really does :/

I have been back reading your blogs since I wanted to catch up. I’ve been MIA for a little bit – crazy busy! Found this post and I cannot not comment – you are BEAUTIFUL with or without make up <3
Juvy

Romila Marie
