Beauty, beauty, and more beauty!!!

The beauty of women is based simply on how we look from the outside. If we have a great body with great assets that make us beautiful therefore we belong in the group of beautiful girl only. For example, in magazines such as “Seventeen” where young, pretty girls are portrayed on the outside cover of the magazine advocates young girl to be skinny in order to fit in the category of being beautiful not ugly. Nowadays, girls in high school are more worried in having a great looking body at whatever the price is than their educational goals. Examples such as the Olsen twins, who are teen celebrities, were starving themselves to fit the perfect image of what beauty is.  Having the image of beautiful goes hand in hand with the consumption of expense beauty products along with expense beauty procedures that can be health risking. Women who are not skinny take the big risk of liposuction, that’s an example of contributing to consumptions of buying beauty but the question is “Is it really worth?”. The women who take this route to be beautiful know what the health risk can be but they want to beautiful according to the standards magazines, media, and men put on them. Girls who are not skinny sometimes feels out of place with their friends that are skinny, it has happened to friends I know. The overall message that is portrayed about beauty is if you have the beauty, we’re just simply conceited about how good we look. If we don’t fit the qualities of beauty, we are simply just not noticed in society.
