Embracing Your Beauty

“Beauty” is sort of a tricky thing to pin down, isn’t it? Every day, we see advertisements for products that are supposed to make us look more appealing—but they all do totally different things. And besides, is there actually just one way to be hot? No, there isn’t!

The truth is, if you’re always comparing yourself to the models you see on TV, and holding yourself to the standards beauty companies set, you’re doing yourself a disservice. The truth is, there are so many ways to be beautiful, and you have everything you need already (without any product’s help!). So how can you embrace your natural beauty and feel truly satisfied with your looks? Here are some tips:

Appreciate everyday beauty.
Beauty comes in all shapes and sizes! But if you’re only ever seeing faces that look like they should be in a magazine, you probably won’t feel that way. Take a moment to peek at people all around you—on the subway, in line at the coffee shop—and ask yourself what’s beautiful about them. Do they look unique? Are they particularly stylish? Maybe they just take the time to smile at other people! If you practice finding beauty in everyday people, it’ll help you find it in yourself.

Dress to impress yourself, not other people.
This one can be tricky sometimes! Who are you trying to impress if not other people? Well, the answer is: yourself (AKA, the most important person)! When you put on makeup or choose an outfit, ask yourself: Am I wearing this because I want to, or because I feel like other people want me to? Do I feel comfortable in it? Does it express me and my personality, or does it express a personality I want other people to think I have, so that they like me? Asking these sorts of questions is the first step in building a healthier relationship with beauty standards.

Tell yourself you’re stunning, because you are!
One super easy way to love yourself a little more is just to say it! Think about how you feel when someone tells you they love you—warm and fuzzy, right? Well, how are you ever going to believe that you love yourself if you don’t say it every once in a while? On your way out the door, stop in front of a mirror and say, “Hey, you look gorgeous, just like every other day! And I love you even when you don’t think you look gorgeous.”
