If you look in the mirror and see nothing you would change, you are not among the majority. If you, like me, see flaws and imperfections, welcome to the normal club.
No matter the time, money or effort, we refuse to give up striving for the ideal. But if you look close at the “ideal,” you’ll find that not everything is as perfect as we believe. To make my point, let’s look at a few of our ideal beauties.
Do you see it?
Look in the middle of their beautiful faces. Giselle’s nose casts a shadow on her cheek. Of course these celebs could afford to fix it but rather than fit into cookie cutter beauty, they embraced what God gave them.

Can you guess where I’m going with this?
Putting Miley, Cameron’s and Selena’s cup sizes together won’t fill half of Dolly’s. You can argue that these celebrities don’t need enhancements for success but consider that they made it the top in a B cup size. We focus on their charisma, confidence and charm and not their cleavage.

What these three ladies have in common is thin lips, lips that didn’t stop Bruno Mars ("...that white gold"), Brad Pitt and Prince William from proclaiming the beauty of these women. Fuller pucker-uppers ranks next to the current obsession with false eyelashes. Videos show the cringe factor some undergo to temporarily plump up their lips. Even worse are photos of failed fillers. The money, the pain – oh, my!
No matter what your perceived flaw, it’s worth an internet search of whatever it is that troubles you about yourself. But with a twist. Instead of looking for products for thin hair, search for, “Famous people with thin hair.” Getting gray? Check out photos of celebrities doing the same.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. When you look in the mirror, try to let those eyes be yours.
