I believe that you need to write extra on this matter, it might not be a taboo subject but typically people are not sufficient to talk on such topics. To the next.

It's just a baby, a fledgling conversation, but if any of you wanted to join the discussion, we would love it. The more voices we have, the more strength we have to challenge a lost-minded culture. You can find us at unglossed.wordpress.com. I've struggled with the magazine faces, even to the point of losing myself to an eating disorder, but it's just another ploy of Satan. The world promises that if you step into the other side, you will join the lovely glamorous women in all their glory. But there are no lovely glamorous women, just lost people stretched out by photoshop trying to step far enough, just like you. It's disgusting because it's marketing, just like Brooke Hathaway said.

In Exodus 35-40, it paints a very lavish picture of how the tabernacle should look. Gold, silver, precious stones, and costly wood and material were all used to beautify the House of God. Later, in I Kings 7, it tells a similar story of the construction of the temple. In the New Testament however, it tells a different story. In 1 corinthians 6:19, there is a great shift. It says that "...your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you...". This means that instead of residing in the temple as in the days of old, God resides in you. Now, there is no problem with appreciating beauty, or decorating the features that God has given you. After all, it is merely beautifying the new temple of God. Not that this can't be over done. With moderation, there shouldn't be a problem. As long as you don't allow your image to become more important than God. The world is desperately trying to get people to pay more attention to yourselves than other people or even God. This video shows this. It is a great example of how marketing wishes girls to look. It is an attempt to make girls dissatisfied with how they look so that the companies can "come to the rescue" with products. I wear light make up and am careful about the way I look. I do not go overboard. As long as God is still the focus in my life, it does not matter. :) In the Old Testament, a theme that occured frequently was the idea of beautifying the tabernacle, and later the temple.

Lol I must share it with them! It is so sad how many young women my age strive to be some girl on the cover of a magazine, when those magazine girls don't even look like that! -sigh- I have come to the conclusion that if you are afraid for someone to see you without your face covered in makeup or spending hours in front of the mirror, then you need to work on some things. LOL :-P I just think that if someone loves you with your makeup on and all dressed up, then they should love you with no makeup and sweats. When us women get married and have a few children, we won't look like super models, so we should stop trying to be something we aren't. God designed us how we are, we should accept ourselves and accept everyone else. Thank you so much for sharing this video! :-D ~Rose <3 That video would be so eye-opening to some friends of mine.

I can't believe the difference in before and after!!! True beauty, thoughit appears to come from the exterior, really does come from within... I completely agree that good looks or a certain amount of make up will never give true happiness. I have to admit to worrying waay too much about looks though... Satan is soo evident in 2010!! The people that really care about you, won't care if you are beautiful or ugly. And I think all girls feel a need to look pretty in order to feel accepted and liked, or whatnot. Yet, real satisfaction comes only through CHRIST! He is our hope, our joy, our love, and our true beauty. Thanks Alex and Brett for posting this! Makes me think- time spent in the bathroom in the morning vs. time spent with God...... A very sad, yet true video!! I can’t believe the difference in before and after!!!
