I mean, I can understand a little retouching like if someone's having a bad hair day so you fix their hair, but this video is taking that too far.

I knew that Hollywood was decieving, but I didn't know it was to that extent. Whoever came up with this video doesn't realize how effective that video can be. Girls, no one looks perfect! Except for God of course, lol. Anyway, I know things with looks and the pressure is hard, but keep on! I am so amazed at how many ways they can change the way you look!

It takes programs to make people into beautiful (in their minds) beings! I think that the definition of beauty these days is pretty twisted! God designed each of us naturally beautiful. Makeup and being skinny cannot change what God has already made perfect! People think that to be beautiful you have to be skinny, and tall or perfect skin or figure, just like the models on TV on in magazines. But if God has naturally made us beautiful, then nothing we can do can add to the beauty God see's in each of us! And it's not the outside that matters anyways. If someone saw the most beautiful woman in the world, yet she hated God, and was the nastiest person ever, they would ignore her awful attitude, and only focus on her beauty, because today, that's all that counts. "Who cares if you are the most caring person ever, if you are not beautiful, you are NOTHING!" It's so sad that that's what teens girls are having to compare themselves to these days. They have to see so called "Beautiful" women everywhere and wish they looked like them. So many girls are risking their health just to look like these women. If only every one realized that God made us all perfect, and beautiful, anything and everything we do to try to change that, will never add to the beauty that God has naturally given us. PRAISE GOD FOR MAKING YOU BEAUTIFUL!

I was honestly stunned that they go through all that, I knew it couldn't entirely be real, but, WOW!!! That was amazing. My favorite verse regarding true beauty has always been "Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes. Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight." 1 Peter 3:3-4 I went to public school for a little while, and it really hurt for a long time. During my pre-teen, early teen years I was a little ackward, and I wore glasses. I was always being teased, and laughed at. Even people at church would compliment my sisters, but not me. I was the ugly duckling of the family. Now, at sixteen, I am almost what is considered pretty. People tell me all the time now, oh your so beautiful. Of course, now I also have the aid of make-up if I feel like it. But, still, why should it be that way? Why did people wait until I grew physically beautiful before they complimented me? I did have compliments on how responsible, and caring, and thoughtful I was. Although, now that I think of it one lady had a vision about me and my siblings, about our spiritual callings in life. She did say that I was beautiful, and that Christ radiated from me. That is one of the best compliments I've ever had. People, please start telling the girls you know they are pretty. If their faces aren't, their souls are. Tell them, it's important. These movies are so accurate. I was honestly stunned that they go through all that, I knew it couldn’t entirely be real, but, WOW!!!

They have been photoshopped almost 5 times!!! They look just like you, and if you wanted to look like them, you can, just with photoshop, which is what they used. Personally this just disgusts me, it's because of this that so many girls are not confident in the way they look, when really the models look just like them. We were made in the image of God, when you call yourself ugly, you're calling God ugly, and I don't think anyone wants to do that.:) THIS is why you shouldn’t want to look like the models in the magazines you see.
