The following is a Guest Post and may not be in line with the philosophy of Our Alter Ego. I just wanted to give people the opportunity I always thirsted for but never got, which is a platform for expression. I hope you appreciate the endeavours.
Be Light,
Much Love,

Being beautiful for women was and is still a trend that most of us follow. What do we not do to look perfect so that people are attracted to us? We have to take care of our skin, our body, our hair, and our nails. We put on makeup. We follow strict diets and do extreme workouts to get the desired body. Despite all the 'struggles' many of us still feel insecure about ourselves. Why is it so?
When questioned some women replied that they when they would not wear makeup they were not given enough attention as those who wore them. Now that they wear makeup to be approachable many of them are treated as 'attention whores'. In the so-called educated world we live today how can we treat women like this? It is unfair to judge someone by his /her appearance. There are various reasons as to why women wear makeup. First, girls of today just love makeup as it enhances their beauty. Some girls wear makeup to hide imperfections or scars. Some girls do not even wear makeup. This does not describe anything about a person's character. Beauty comes from within. You do you.
Also, many women compare themselves from each other. There are some women who think that others are more beautiful than them although all the efforts they make. Well, you should stop doing that. I firmly believe that each of us are uniquely beautiful. No one is born perfect and we have to accept who we are. Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder and according to me every woman is beautiful. So brace yourself and get ready to conquer the world with your beauty.
