I just had to share this new video with you. In just a week this stuff has gone viral and here is why. Colbie Caillat in her new single “Try” from album Gypsy Heart Side says NO to Photoshop. It makes you stop for a while and think deeply about how we have set norms for beauty and what a real girl looks like.
In an interview to Elle here is what she said “When I shot the first scene with no hair and makeup on in front of an HD camera in my face, flashed with bright lights, everyone was watching. I thought, ‘Oh my god, I bet they’re all looking at my blemishes, thinking that I should cover them up, or that I should put some volume in my hair.’ But it also felt really cool to be on camera with zero on, like literally nothing on. And then when it got to the full hair and makeup, I actually felt gross. I was just so caked on. ”
I got the Try song lyrics for you:
Put your make-up on
Get your nails done
Curl your hair
Run the extra mile
Keep it slim so they like you, do they like you?
Get your sexy on
Don’t be shy, girl
Take it off
This is what you want, to belong, so they like you
Do you like you?
You don’t have to try so hard
You don’t have to give it all away
You just have to get up, get up, get up, get up
You don’t have to change a single thing
You don’t have to try, try, try, try
Get your shopping on, at the mall, max your credit cards
You don’t have to choose, buy it all, so they like you
Do they like you?
Wait a second,
Why should you care, what they think of you
When you’re all alone, by yourself, do you like you?
Do you like you?
You don’t have to try so hard
You don’t have to give it all away
You just have to get up, get up, get up, get up
You don’t have to change a single thing
You don’t have to try so hard
You don’t have to bend until you break
You just have to get up, get up, get up, get up
You don’t have to change a single thing
You don’t have to try, try, try, try
You don’t have to try so hard
You don’t have to give it all away
You just have to get up, get up, get up, get up
You don’t have to change a single thing
You don’t have to try, try, try, try
Take your make up off
Let your hair down
Take a breath
Look into the mirror, at yourself
Don’t you like you?
Cause I like you

amazing!!!!!!!! All women..and i mean all..should dress up and apply makeup because they like doing it...and have fun doing it..not because "somebody" will not like you in your original skin...i wear sport shoes and jeans to a party if i feel like...i should decide what i wear on my face and on my body,..others don't :D
exactly my views. still people are mis-interpreting it.
loved the post so so muchh :) x
Amazing...loved the video thanks for sharing it ..:)
anytime :)
Really good.. So true :) Loved the song and the concept..
totally love the song!
Nice post
Awesome! America and some other cultures put a lot of makeup on,....and most of this is done so that people like you.
This is infiltrating India too,.a growing economy.People who put on lot of makeup everyday hide behind it.Too much Botox ,facelifts just distorts the view.Dyeing hair in 60s is a lie....you are getting older ,60s is the time to accept complete white hair.
i dont wear makeup daily but i guess the girl is trying to say that you do whatever you feel comfortable AND beautiful in. there shouldnt be any norms for beauty
I Think it sends across an important message to certain girls who need it,I Mean I blog part -time but I never wear makeup in real life, it's always just a moistuizer for me forget hair straightning/curling but on the other hand , there are also girls who feel they cannot step out of home without a face full of makeup...it certainly is the norm for girls in first world countries such as US,UK, It is almost unacceptable if a woman/girl is not wearing makeup, straightened hair....so this certainly sends across the right message.
there is nothing wrong with makeup. the problem starts when you do it to please others and not yourself
you got me wrong babes..... where did I said makeup is wrong? I LOVE makeup n have a blog to prove it :D :D
I just said In first world countries girls NEED to wear makeup when they turn 11-12 because otherwise they do not look ''presentable'' according to western society and will be bullied,called ugly etc.
In India/Pakistan etc most girls wear makeup to please themselves and not others but I know some girls of my age(16-17) and they wear makeup all the time to please their boyfriends ! O_O That is when it's a problem
actually you didn't got me wrong, I didn't explained well in the first comment now reading it yeah it sounds like I am saying girls who wear makeup should not
Lol haha that was so not what I meant! I Meant is you should not wear makeup or dress a certain way to please others.
haha dats okay! ds written communication can be a lil sucky at times. hail makeup ;)
:) yep
LOL! so true, loved reading it.
I Wear Makeup Everyday, I'm Obsessed With It But That Said To Please Myself n To Pwettify Myself! *_*
rightly said
Wow...and the lyrics are amazing! I don't wear makeup to please anyone but I guess this song addresses highschool girls who get carried away by all the drama and do all sorts of crazy stuff to fit in!
