It could be argued that over the past several years, what we think of as beautiful has been changing. With regard to people, and women in particular, the aesthetic has become very pronounced and very dependent on cosmetics. For example, make-up is no longer being used to enhance an individual’s current features, whilst downplaying some of their flaws, but rather, it has become means of recreating a person’s face.

Now, with the world becoming more about appearances, it is easy to forget the importance of not just ‘looking happy’, but rather, ‘being happy’. Further, and noting the emphasis on looking younger and so the importance of skincare, it can be overlooked that to a considerable degree, youthfulness in reflected in the eyes and not just the skin. Hence your thoughts and your outlook on life greatly influence how youthful, beautiful and magnetic are.

 

Throughout the day, we invite you to revisit this quote. Below are a few questions you may wish to ask yourself, and those who journal may find them especially useful:

• How comfortable am I in my own skin?
• Am I prepared to venture outside, to run errands without make-up?
• How much emphasis do I place on my outer appearance, versus what is going on the inner, behind the scenes?

 

 

Best wishes and have a great day!
