Hi š
Showing my bare face for the world to see online! š«¢
All my imperfections.
I think itās important for all women but for young women especially to see more content like this āš¼
āØ20-year-old me would have NEVER been caught dead without full face makeup and face filters for selfies. I used to place ALL my self-worth in my looks, and the most important thing was to attract the male gaze. š¤¢
šGrowth has been immense for me at 32 I honestly no longer give a s**t about what others think of me. Itās been so liberating! Sure I do love to get dolled up from time to time and it makes me feel good. But I no longer HAVE to in order to feel pretty or worthy of love.
āØSo many years lost to bad body image days and hating the way I looked. Crying about how my skin would have breakouts constantly and it made me feel hideous and want to hide.
When I turned 18, social media really started to become all about this unachievable expectation of beauty, and boy, did I fall into its trap of comparison hard. Body dysmorphia and eating disorders galore was a trend from 15-28
I wish I could go back and hug myself and tell myself how beautiful I was and that the only opinion that matters is your own. š
Life is sooooooo short! Live every damn day to the fullest no matter what you look like please I beg you! Donāt let society and social media get the best of you. You donāt need to post pictures of yourself showing off your waistline or your b***y online for others to validate your self-worth.
š¤Confidence is beautiful and it doesnāt ask for attention.
