Accept These
Imperfect Parts of Yourself to be More Confident
We are our own
worst critics. You look in the mirror and focus on your imperfections instead
of accepting how amazing you are as a person. It’s important for
self-improvement that you identify your weaknesses and turn them into
strengths, but when it comes to beauty, all you do is nitpick endlessly. Even if other people give you compliments, if you don’t accept yourself, you’ll never get that last ounce of confidence you need.

Curves (or Lack
Thereof)
Women are the
biggest victims of insecurity, especially when you compare yourself to the
scores of perfect women you see on print ads and social media. Instead of being
aspirational, these female role models are unattainable and become sources of
self-doubt.
Understand that behind those perfect smiles might be similar issues
you’re facing, and celebrities are just as real and valid as you. Whether
you’ve been blessed with a curvy figure or you simply do not have the chest
size you want, there are ways to work around these for you to feel more
confident. But enhancements should be just that--enhancements. First, you have
to love your body in the shape or size it comes in.
Eyebrows
Everyone wants the
perfect eyebrows because it’s been the center of attention for the beauty world
for quite some time now. Before, you needed to shave or pluck your eyebrows so
they’ll be thin and shapely.
Now, the trend is to have fuller brows because
they’re more youthful. You’re filled with regret because eyebrows don’t grow
back as quickly as you want them to. But there’s a quick fix in the form of
eyebrow makeup online, which means there’s really no reason for you to hate
yourself for your natural eyebrows.
No matter what shape they come in
naturally, you can improve their look using simple makeup and tools. Instead of
being insecure, use your energy to learn how to get the eyebrows you want. This
teaches you to care for yourself, identify what’s causing your self-hate, and
find ways to grow out of it.
Lips
Either your lips
are too thin or not thin enough. Everyone wants that perfect pout, but you
think you just don’t have the perfectly shaped lips for it. But what you’re
lacking in the lips department can be solved using lip liners.
Learn to
overline your lips to give it a fuller look, or use concealer if you want the illusion
of thinner lips. Another point of insecurity for women is not being able to
wear nude or red lips because popular lipstick shades simply don’t work for
them.
Banish this from your thoughts right now because there are hundreds of
shades to choose from. The shade that’s most flattering for you is out there;
you just haven’t found it yet.
Nose
Many, if not all,
women are not satisfied with their nose. It sits in the middle of the face and
it’s not something you can hide. Rather than hating your whole face because of
your nose shape, learn how to contour it.
That’s not enough, however. You’ll
still see yourself without makeup, and you should love yourself barefaced, too.
Instead of focusing on your nose, find other aspects of your face that you love
and give your nose a little break from all the negativity.
There’s nothing
wrong with any part of your body. Self-affirmation is important in tackling
your biggest insecurities, so remember to love yourself.
