As my nickname, Eveuncovered suggests, I'm here to bare everything.
I'm starting a series called Reality Check, where I'll share with you before and after pictures, behind the scenes photos and things like that. I am an illusionist and I love creating my pictures, making up a story, a character, showing different parts of myself. But I also would like to share with you the things that you don't see in the final pictures. It's also something I want to see from other artists.
This first part is going to be the hardest post I will ever make. I don't mean to sound dramatic, but I am actually terrified. I'm very confident with my body, which is not perfect either, but I'm not scared of showing you ass, tits, everything! But what comes to my naked face, fuck, I am scared shitless! Of all the places on the internet, I'm choosing to share this here, so it's going to be permanently stored in the blockchain. Fun times.
I hope this is going to feel like ripping off a bandaid. Here goes nothing.
This is the real me. No makeup. No hairstyling. No props. No retouching on Photoshop. You can see everything. Pimples, pores, freckles (which I love!), oiliness, scars, tiny lashes, everything. You can see all my insecurities.
I have always struggled with my skin, whether it be with acne, atopic skin or number of other things. It's due to genetics, diet and hormones. There are good days and bad days. Winters are a lot harder, my skin does a lot better when it gets some sun. I don't care what people say about getting skin cancer from sunbathing, when I see the benefits of the sun on my skin every summer.
It's not like I pile on mountains of makeup every day, but even a sheer layer of mineral foundation and some mascara make me feel a hundred times better about myself. I'll show you some makeup before and after pics on a later date on this series. Please let me know if you have any suggestions about what you'd like to see on here in the future.
Everything from here on out will be easy.
good pictures.

Okay, I am not a bullshitter. If I like something I say it. If I don't, I either say it or stay silent. But I won't say I like something when I don't.
And I'm saying now that I LOVE this. The authenticity and vulnerability in these photos and in this post is so numinous that it takes my breath away. I've never met you, but I feel a connection anyway.
I'm proud of you. Good girl. 🙏🏼

No I won't, and quite frankly, that does sound like a nightmare to me :'D I'm quite antisocial and super shy when it comes to meeting new people irl! Though would love to visit Lisbon in general.

I would usually agree with you, that if your really are a antisocial super shy person as you say to avoid rushing right into a large event like this. However, I fee like this event is very much different then a normal later gathering. A majority of people who attended the first Steemfest often spoke of how they are very much like yourself but decided to go for it! I'm sure some could answer to this by commenting below but the people at Steemfest were just amazing people in general. It's like walking into a room full of old friends you've known forever. Social barriers were broken and everyone got along so well it was shocking! So if you were to ever try and break your antisocial nature and experience something new, this would be the chance. I myself as a child was extremely shy and antisocial and luckily after much travel and pushing to meet new people... I broke out of this. I always hope to inspire people to try the same... uncover 😉 your true self. It seems you've already begun by the looks of your blog and interaction here on steemit.
Well damn, that comment was longer then first anticipated.
Why not visit Lisbon the week before! A few os us will be around (as a ice breaker maybe?)

For me as a painter the question of what beauty is comes up regularly.
My wife runs her own café and we have a lot of young people as our guests. And of course I enjoy seeing all the pretty girls, particularly now in summer and every now and then one even models for a painting.
But strangely, for the last couple of weeks, I feel I'm on od and somehow grow tired of endless versions of the same mould. We live in a world of a vast inflation of prettiness!
I look for beauty in the extraordinary and the pictures of you here are really special. Looked at everyone in "full view". My favorite is the third one. I like the bold composition and the way the crisp detail of the face fades out of focus towards the body.
You look refreshingly real and that's what true beauty is all about. I totally agree with @sean-king and its hard to add anything of value to what he already said.
Stunning post, thank you for uncovering :-)

I agree. The Steemit platform is better than a psychiatrist. In opening up to the community , one can face one's weakness and fears and come to grips with it . In doing so, one becomes more comfortable and accepting of one's weakness and eventually see it as a strength in making one stronger and promoting self growth and development. "Eveuncovered."

Beauty isn't about having a pretty face. It's about having a pretty mind, pretty heart and pretty soul. To be honest, I haven't been so close to you that I can say something about your soul heart or mind; but one thing I can say without any doubt is that the way you presented yourself is astonishing and it compelled me to say that you are the inside out beautiful person.

Taking off the 'mask' is always hard. Most people never take it ff, even in private. They present the same mask they show the world to themselves.
It takes strength of character to show the real you, and even more to be the real you.
You talk about not having the perfect body, but perfection is a fallacy - it doesn't exist. It's better to strive to beinteresting, to be different, to be true to yourself and not someone else's ideal of perfection.
Kudos to you for taking the brave step of showing yourself to the world, as you are. And as you can see from the comments, you are accepted and welcomed and celebrated for who you are without the mask.
So maybe the mask is not needed after all......

Would you be open to me using some of your art for my blogs?
I'm trying to develop a network of artists and writers who work together. Artists get promoted in other blogs, and writers get new exposure from the fans of the artists.
For me, I am doing my best to only use steemian generated art for all of my blogs. My blogs don't make much right now, but I always send the artists a tip, linkback to original post, and tag the artists. In general, I think a percentage of the post payout would be a fair way to work it out... you can check some of my recent posts for examples of how my "image sources" look.
If you would like more details, see this post: Why don't we get more Images for our Blogs from other Steemians?
I would love any feedback you have on the issue. It would be great to get the community on board. Right now I'm focusing on finding artists who are interested, and then once we have a decent number of artists, then I will be contacting writers encouraging them to connect with the artists who are on board.
Also, perhaps you already know, but there is a Discord Server for Artists on Steemit. <3
Have Fun, and Steem on!
(#notabot Genuine Alien Interaction)
p.s. as far as makeup goes, less is more (my opinion). then again, it is a tool for art, so... anyways, you're beautiful!

As others have commented, the third is by far the strongest of this set and the most beautiful. Disposition towards vulnerability, or an attraction to the unique, call it what you will, but its profound.
The best portraits are those that express human emotion, untethered by limitations or expectation (canned pose). They often come by mistake or pure luck for some photographers once a model feels more comfortable.
Ironically as you stated, the reverse was true, but in that uncomfortable moment in selecting to capture and post this, you provided a new dimension previously missing from your work. Courage.
Thank you for sharing that side of you.

I find it really hard to truly photograph my purest unfiltered self, soul, you could say. Seems like even if I try, there is always a sort of film of something else on top. Of course, I often portray a character on purpose, but that's a different story.

Your face is simply perfect, I don't know why you still worry about it. About the sun effects that are good sometimes for the skin, I think you can buy a lamp (I know, it does not compare to the sun but let me finish) with UV radiation and expose your skin to it for a couple of minutes a day. It can be very good for skin, but don't abuse it :D
