Real beauty emanates from within and doesn’t depend on makeup or cosmetic enhancements. Manufactured beauty is using makeup or cosmetic enhancements to provide a temporary improvement to a physical exterior.
Real beauty is natural beauty with no make up or cosmetic procedures. Manufactured beauty is false beauty because you’re basically wearing a mask with makeup and cosmetic procedures.
When I was in high school, I was very jealous of my best girlfriend who was what most people would consider beautiful: tall, blond, blue eyed, thin. But another friend told me something that’s always stuck with me, “Truly beautiful people get even more beautiful the closer you look.” What she meant was that inner beauty shines through. I’ve always remembered that.
Real beauty is a result of maturation. Just like a fine wine, the true essence of and full body of the wine, comes in time. A nurturing takes place;If a person doesn’t have someone or some thing to nurture a healthy outlook on beauty, then real beauty may never be realized. Real beauty is confidence, knowledge of self and feeling like you are omnipresent, whether alone or in a crowded room……but again, real beauty is an intangible that, one has to realize, comes from within.
I think real beauty really comes from a person’s attitude, for example, the prettiest person is still ugly if they are frowning all the time, but if you aren’t physically attractive, if you smile, you are more beautiful
