Day 8
As a makeup artist, I will always look at a clients face and see what I consider her best feature. I will then ask her what she considers to be her best feature. 10 % of the time they will tell me and leave it at that, the other 90% of the time, women would start giving me a rather in-proportionate list of all the things they hate about their face; eyes too small, nose too wide, lips too big etc.
What I have learned, in all my 16 years in this business, are the flaws you look at every day, that seem to stand out like a giant beacon to you, are usually totally oblivious to everyone else. When you introduce yourself to someone for the first time, what they will notice is your warm smile, your confident manner, your engaging eyes. If you have wit and charm, they won't notice that small hair line scar just below your chin.
I have yet to meet someone who has said "I don't like him/her because he/she's got a big nose....pointed chin.....crooked teeth.....fill in the rest.
What your mother told you all those years ago is actually true. Beauty is only skin deep, it's what's inside that truly matters. I wish us women would remember that. At least 90% of the time. Concentrate on what you like about yourself, forget the rest, it's irrelevant.....in the words of RuPaul...WORK IT GIRL!
