Remember, repeat (beauty)
People say, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder."
My friends have all beheld me, they say how beautiful I am.
I have to believe that I am my own beholder.
I can make myself beautiful. But I can only make myself as beautiful as me, as myself -- not someone else. No one else looks exactly like me, except me. Those beautiful women out there, those models and actresses, all the women in the world, they are beautiful.
But they are not my beauty. I am not their beauty. We each have our own.
The important thing is to expand on my beauty. Mine, not theirs.
If I wanted to look like the most beautiful woman in the world... whose world would that be?
When I wear minimal makeup I am an artist with a canvas and pallet. My mother taught me that cosmetics have the power to enhance natural beauty -- and there is always natural beauty.
My beauty is in the eye of me. And I am beautiful.
