Beauty Today: All Smoke and Mirrors?
by Danna Schneider
Did you ever notice that the bar is continually being
raised on exactly what physical characteristics define beauty? As I
sit in front of the TV, I am bombarded by beauties with pouty lips,
perfect bone structure, flawless skin, more "voluptuous" upper
regions, size 2 waists, and hair that resembles spun silk. Take these
same beauties and plop them back in time 20-30 years, when
the advent of modern cosmetic technology had not even begun to reach
its full potential. Do you think they would have had those same attributes
you find yourself longing for when faced with these images? My guess
is probably not, or at least not to the same extent.
True, genetics play a role in physical beauty, but with
the likes of Total "extreme" makeover reality TV (The Swan,
Extreme Makeover, Dr. Beverly Hills) and abundant publicity, we see
that beauty and cosmetic improvement can now be achieved by a few thousand
dollars and a good plastic surgeon. Not only that, but cosmetics in
general are now so technologically advanced, you can dramatically improve
your appearance by personal makeup application and home treatments (for
best, proven product http://www.cosmeticsgalore.com ).
There are now do-it-yourself cosmetic treatments such
as home microdermabrasion kits, chemical peels, "botox" creams
and gels, teeth whiteners, hair removal treatments, cellulite treatments,
professional hair straighteners and colors, self tanners, lip enlargers,
acne treatments, and the list goes on and on. Cosmetics marketers and
science have joined forces to give women everything they ever wanted
to be their most beautiful, and feel better about themselves. Women
are benefitting by so many companies competing for a piece of these
fairly new markets by lower, more competitive prices.

Not only are there new breakthroughs in the world of
cosmetic science, But there are constantly new studies and discoveries
in the field of nutrition, fitness, and wellness. Combine this with
the new wave of technologically advanced cosmetics, supplements, and
treatments, and you've got a recipe for a healthier, longer, more satisfying
life for those of us who decide to take advantage of the advanced knowledge
of our time.
So, does your desire to be your best and most beautiful
self make you shallow, less credible, or somehow jeopardize your feminist
agendas? Unless you've somehow compromised your integrity, morals, or
core Beliefs along the way, the answer is ABSOLUTELY NOT! As long as
you are not putting yourself at high
risk for physical harm, obsessing endlessly, or spending your life savings,
investing time and money into your beauty ultimately is an investment
in your well being, self esteem, and many times, mental and physical
health. Feeling beautiful is part of what makes us women. Come on, it's
just plain FUN to
experiment with different looks and different products! It feels good
to be noticed, and when you feel beautiful, you tend to radiate confidence
and power. It is inherent in our nature to want to feel feminine and
look and feel our best, and there is nothing wrong with it, as long
as it is not all-consuming.
As a self-proclaimed "product junkie", I can
attest that many of these newly engineered products really do work,
as I have tried nearly all of them in the quest to look and feel my
best. I can't wait to see what they'll come out with next, as every
new product seems to top the last. Hey, women have come a long way,
and we deserve to feel sexy and confident - beyond smoke and mirrors!
