Dare To Be The Most Beautiful Girl In The Room
We’ve all heard it before – beauty is an inside job. And yet, women around the globe continue to feel inadequate because of the society’s imposed beauty standards: just think about the consistent problem of body shaming. Being beautiful goes beyond your appearance: discovering new sources from which you’ll draw your confidence will reflect on your overall beauty. You’ll learn that most frequently – you are the only person standing in your way. Are you brave enough to have all eyes on you? A little shift in perception is all you need.Understand every era has a different definition of beauty
Address the skin issues you’re bothered by
Many women struggle with different skin conditions (e.g. acne, psoriasis) which may even disrupt mental health: the link between psychology and our skin is firm and the field of psychodermatology is developing to further examine the nature of this connection.We find people with clear complexions more attractive as it is one of the indicators of good health. Skin reflects our overall lifestyle: from the amount of sleep we get and water intake to eating habits and whether or not we use sunscreen. A majority of women has skin discolorations and eye wrinkles as a direct consequence of poor sun protection. If you feel self-conscious about it, you can consider taking care of pigmentation permanently or simply turn to makeup: a medium coverage foundation is a quick solution one can use on a daily basis.
Be active and give yourself some tough love
We all tend to fall into a self-pity vicious circle where we beat ourselves up about our imperfections while we’re perfectly capable of changing them. If you feel uncomfortable about your excessive weight, sign up for a gym membership and commit to a workout regime: no excuses! Exercising has many benefits: you will be proud of the results you’ve achieved and the toned body will give you a boost in confidence. This doesn’t mean the fitness physique is the be-all and end-all of body shapes but to underline the undeniable power of self-pride that comes with achieving goals and feeling good about yourself. All of the mentioned affects how people perceive you.
Unconventional beauty approach: your chance to stand out
These are just some of the examples of women who dared to pave their own path of beauty, under their own terms. Fashion and physical appearance have always been good ways to express yourself – and why would you want to blend in, anyway?
It’s often challenging to disregard the harmful voices that are saying you’re not good enough – whether they come from others or they evolved and became internalized. Your self-perception plays a huge role here: the level of attractiveness is not just about your physical appearance but is rooted in how you feel about yourself. That is one of the things you should work on and a head-turning look will come naturally.

I love the title of that book. It's amazing how much different an impression someone makes when she feels like she's beautiful. That inner confidence really makes a difference.
ReplyDeleteI love that Winnie is successful regardless of her skin issues. Goes to show that we are all beautiful and need to stop beating ourselves up.

Definitely important to believe in ourselves and feel good about who we are- both inside and out. Beauty has a million different looks. :)
