Beauty Is As Beauty Does

I was looking at a fashion magazine when I found myself laughing right out loud. In one of the articles, a drop dead gorgeous woman was telling us her beauty secrets to be ~ well, more beautiful. They showed a series of photos of her with and without make-up and it was very clear that this woman was blessed at birth.

Doesn't it strike you as a bit ironic that a naturally endowed woman, who by no effort of her own but through the kind DNA of her parents, is telling us how to be more beautiful through make-up tips? I mean this woman could wear a paper bag, never ever wear a lick of make-up, put her hair in a scrunchy and make a sourpuss face and she would STILL be more gorgeous than 99% of the female population.

And worse yet ~ we listen to her!!! What is that all about? I will never ever look like her because my genes aren't configured that way.

Don't get me wrong. I'm perfectly okay with that. I just think it's hysterical how we let models and actresses tell us how to be more beautiful when they either have the genetic card up their sleeves or they pay a make-up artists pots of money to look like they do.

Thanks for the laugh!
