What is beauty?

Moya here, as a person who has had a poor body image for as long as I can remember, I have a problem with the photoshopped job of Kelly Clarkson on the cover of Self Magazine. You can see it on the previous post. Take a look at this link, it is just over one minute see how a girl becomes a model.

It is no wonder we, as women, have poor body images. Moya, I too feel the same way. How do we boost our beautiful daughters in this computer age. I fully support Dove, even though they may only be doing this to pad their bottom line. We should support all companies and actors (ie Jamie Lee Curtis) that refuse to be falsified.

PS my word verification is "spent", how appropriate.

I may not be a female, but I do know one thing, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and even if one part of your body or mind wanes, another flourishes. Example: You may have huge hips but you may have a smile that could melt anyone's bad day away
So Nautral Beauty has more intitive then photoshop or make-up cover ups. So don't think your "Not pretty enough" and don't compare yourself to someone else. Just look at yourself and say "Look how far I've come"
