Ugly Contradiction


Love the skin you are in Unless its too pale to put that neon crop top on or its too dark to cover up with blush Love your body Unless its too fat to wear a tank top or too skinny to wear denim shorts Leave your hair natural But not if its curly or frizzy or if its limp and lifeless like your body after starving it to wear that tanktop You look better without makeup but did you even look in the mirror before leaving the house? Gosh, put a little more effort forward but you don't need makeup
