Hello,

Searching some of my traffic stats I came across your article. . . it’s great! The mainstream concept of “beauty” is definitely a marketing ploy and an invention of good copywriters’ ability to define our needs, what’s acceptable and what isn’t. Excellent post.

I suppose that could be justified, but the whole pillow-faced celebrity look is sort of starting to scare me. Have you noticed how puffy some of those gorgeous ladies’ faces have gotten?

I have to comment on this because I think its so beautifully written! I especially love that you drew attention to the fact that beauty is a compilation of different aspects and characteristics. Its so clear that you're not just writing this to say what people want to hear but more that you whole-heartedly believe this. Its an amazingly refreshing outlook. We need more people like you! xx agentnoir’s last blog post..Giveaway Winner!

"Entire maladies were invented by creative marketing firms and the newspapers’ need to sell advertising." HA! Restless Leg Syndrome anyone? Can I admit this here? I am planning on getting a touch of botox. I don't mind growing old gracefully and having a few wrinkles, but I really could do without this forehead furrow. It's not a big deal now, of course, but I can extrapolate 40 years worth and I am not feeling it. Back when people liked Chris Brown (a pox upon him!) and all I could do was stare at his forehead and think "WHY?" And he's young! (Maybe it's because I am a fan of Star Trek, but I don't want to turn into a Klingon!) Anyway, I go without makeup (excepting my Bare Minerals and lip gloss) and moisturize with coconut oil, but I am still looking at botox. Hayden Tompkins’s last blog post..How To Let Go

Wait-- during our teens and 20s we will spend $65K+ or starting in our teens/20s we'll spend that much!? I find it hard to believe (& not at all) that young women would get botox & microdermibrasion. Great read, Miss Birdiee! I'm popping over to Newsweek now to read about "Generation Diva." Ashe Mischief’s last blog post..B & Lu: Fun Plus-Sized Fashion
