I used to think I was ugly, but then I stopped using most makeup and skin are products and simplified how I took care of myself. I think now at 28 I look incredibly better (and younger!) than I did at 22.
Moral of the story: beauty does not always = :)
The beauty industry preys on a woman's insecurities - women are insecure because so many shallow people judge them first and foremost on their looks.
I think the more obsessed a person is with their looks, the more unhappy they are since they are never pretty enough.
Interesting, even though Im not that suprised. Thanx for sharing this.
Teresa...nobody is ugly. It is amazing...during my teens I was fat,,,and yet I had all kinds of dates,,,I never sat home. People would look at my photos and would make comments that told me they were surprised that I looked so good in my photos. It is amazing what the camera captures.. Many women who think they don't look so good - aren't seen by others in the manner they are seen by themselves. If you practice loving yourself more...and wearing a smile on your face...it will change your attitude. I looked better at 47 than I did at 17.

Nichole, how old are you? Twelve? Well, if so, at that age I was also idealistic enough to think that beauty didn't matter. It does! An ugly woman won't even get a good job if the recruiter is a man!
An ugly person can't be happy. I know this because I'm ugly myself.
