How many beauty products do you use each day? Are you happy with your appearance? Most likely you get your hair done every few weeks, have your waxer on speed dial, and so many lip glosses you don’t know what to do with. Or maybe you’ve had a few nip-tucks to stay young and perky.
Maybe that’s why the cosmetic industry makes over $160 billion a year.
Our favorite magazines have super gorgeous women on the covers and tons of ads telling us what new must-have products should be on our shopping list. We are trained from a young age as to what the idea of beauty is. Go to any magazine rack and hundreds of these images of beauty will be starring you in the face. Do you look like any of them?
Don’t be fooled. If you look at your favorite celebrity on a cover of that magazine and think to yourself, “I wish I looked like her”, take a look at this video. Don’t judge a book by it’s cover, because the cover has been primped, lighted, masked, and Photoshop-ed! I should know, I was a graphic designer for a lingerie company and helped run the photo shoots, where I would then go back to the computer and make the women look even better.
