The same will be done for actors in films or on stage. Those same magazines that retouch already skinny women (or muscular men) to make them look ‘more perfect’ (see above) will also perform miracles of photo retouching to remove any blemishes, pimples etc that appear. The truth is many people, even celebrities, struggle with poor skin.

It can be tempting to think that if your skin is less than perfect then you are going to be perceived as ugly. Sadly just about the only people who have this type of skin without putting in serious effort are babies and young children.įrom the teenageyears struggles with larger pores, blackheads, pimples and huge pizza like zoids are sadly all too common not to mention the horrible blind hormonal spots that many women get on their chins once a month.
Almost everybody, if asked, would aspire to have plump, blemish free, dewy skin.
It is also one of the most visible outward manifestations of physical beauty. It protects us from the sun, helps excrete toxins and regulates the environment within our bodies. If you fall within the normal range you have nothing to worry about (although if you feel bad about your body it might help to do some exercise to tone up your muscles).ĭid you know that our skin is the largest organ in our body. This gives you guidelines – if your reading is above average you should think about losing some weight. The best way to work out if you are a healthy weight for your size is to check your Body Mass Index. Whether or not you are a healthy weight will depend on so many factors – 120lb might be seriously underweight for one person but completely normal and healthy for another. The best thing you can do is ditch the magazines or, at the very least, acknowledge that they are pedaling a big fat lie. Our perception of normal, healthy beauty has been skewed by the application of technology. The truth is, however, that you will never meet that goal. It is easy to believe that if you follow the health, beauty and fitness advice contained in the magazines and on ‘beauty and fashion’ websites you too can look like the models in them. Most magazines are honest about the retouching and everyone knows that it happens. The most beautiful women and men in the world, the people who are paid to devote all their time to their appearance, fall so far from our standards of beauty that, in order to be able to sell products, their images have to be altered – a bit of weight trimmed off the hips, a few inches added to the legs, those bingo wings erased. Every single one of the photographs you see is a lie. The photographs in these magazines are, however, touched up. Magazines advertise clothing on models who are not only paid to be extremely thin (so that the clothes hang well) and beautiful. We live in an age obsessed with weight and size.

Here are the top 10 reasons why you are (or think you are) ugly and how to change them! If there are things about your appearance that bother you the chances are that there are things you can do to change them. She was also witty, with a musical voice and stimulating character and the key political figures of the day fought a war because of love for her! She was a bald, wore a wig, had a hooked nose and fairly fat, fleshy face. Cleopatra, one of the reputedly most beautiful women of all time was, by modern standards, extremely ugly. It can be depressing to be ugly in a world of beautiful people but what can you do about it? Beauty is, so they say, in the eye of the beholder and the chances are that you are your worst critic. It is easy for others (often people we perceive as beautiful) to say that hankering after beauty is mere vanity. Not all ugly ducklings are, however, swans in disguise, not all ugly girls have a pretty one waiting behind their glasses and not all geeks will get the girl in the end. For some people these stories give hope, for others, however, the stories are a cruel hoax.
