I like your thoughts on beautification, even if I might disagree on some points (though you’re hardly saying anything against anyone, so there’s not much to disagree with). Anyway, I understand that it’s disturbing when everyone is doing it and everyone is sharing it. And you start questioning whether you should do it yourself. It’s like with leopard dresses.

However, I see these numerous beautification confessions as part of the trend toward natural beauty, honesty, and self-acceptance. I know it sounds strange, but I’ll land that plane. These people sharing the fuel & mechanics behind their super-beauty…it contributes to the average woman’s self-acceptance much more than if they hid it and pretended it was all mama nature.

If I know for sure it isn’t mama nature, I don’t compare myself to them.

Like with leopard dresses 😂 I still think I want one, I need one!

I agree it’s better that people are so honest about it rather than say it’s all mama nature. On the other hand, though, it makes people think of doing something they wouldn’t even think about otherwise.

Tricky, layered, complex topic and I have no idea who is right or wrong here, if anyone 😁
