Truth Behind The Lies


Unblemished

Perfect 

Unmarked

Pristine

Unimpaired 

Flawless

The world tells us to be all these things

If you aren't then you are 

Unaatractive

Imperfect 

Unappealing

Inferior

Unlovely

Falwed

But is that the truth?

Or are freckles and acne just as beautiful as a naked face?

Are curly eyesbrows just as attractive as drawn-on ones?

Are naturally eyelashes just as fierce as falses?

The choice is ours

We chose to be beautiful or not by our mind set

Behind all the make-up and filters

We are flawless.
