Does beauty make or break us? Explore the various ways the beauty industry influences our self-perception.
Beauty! Beauty! Beauty!
Have you ever just looked into the mirror and said, “I am beautiful?” If not, maybe you should. From the full application of makeup to rocking a natural look, there's a lot to cover in beauty.
What is beauty, though? What's the right definition of this term?
Beauty is defined by a lot of factors. But first, beauty equals self-image. I mean there definitely is a connection there. It’s about how we mentally picture ourselves. And let’s be honest: The way we view our attractiveness impacts everything:
What makes us care so much about looks? Is there something that pushes us to look a certain way? Is it social media, society, or something deeper within us?
Here's how the health and beauty industry shapes self-perception and what we can learn from it.
There is always something new in beauty. If not, it's definitely baking awaiting the ultimate reveal. Today, you will find a new serum in the market and tomorrow they will have a 3-in-1 hair oil. The point here is that there will always be something that draws attention to customers (us).
Each product that gets invented has a goal in mind. It can be to:
This is the power of these trends. But for some, these ideals are hard to attain which can lead to self-doubt. Why? Because most marketed products feel out of touch with real life. But why does this matter so much?
The beauty industry is changing fast! Folks no longer want to be perfect looks, they want something that makes them empowering. Below are a few beauty industry trends that are shaping the future of beauty.
For you to better take care of yourself you have to first love yourself. Accept your flaws and learn new routines to create that glow. Beauty can help you achieve that goal that makes you feel good. Here are some self-care products to look for:
All these products help people relax and treat themselves. After all, when you feel good, you look good, right?
The “less is more” idea is here to stay. Most individuals are now embracing who they are wholeheartedly. You will find someone will rock her natural hair with a simple updo or even twist-outs. Makeup? They will go for a more natural look.
Heavy makeup is out, and natural beauty is in. Skincare is now the star. I mean who wouldn't go for a healthy and glowing skin? Remember: The goal is to embrace what makes you, you.
Many brands are now showcasing different skin tones, body types, and ages. Why? That’s because people want real representation. Beauty is no longer “one size fits all,” and companies are finally catching up.
Imagine seeing models that look like us. Well, it definitely feels good, right?
Every single day as soon as it hits 8 am, you swiftly pick your phone to check Instagram. You land on pictures of strikingly gorgeous models with abnormally high cheekbones and defined lips (all edited and full of filters, of course).
This is a lot for one to handle as it makes you question your appearance in different ways. After you put your phone down, you stand in front of a mirror and check your tummy and the crevices on your face. Out of nowhere, you start comparing yourself with that model you just saw in the photo. And, you are left to wonder, do cosmetics define our beauty?
Social media platforms are like two sides of a coin (it has merits and demerits). It's true it helps us connect with our friends and family. That part is very evident. But, it also shells us with beauty standards that we can't uphold. Isn't that just sad!?
Relying on photo editing and filters can create an unrealistic standard of beauty. This kind of unrealism has its problems attached to it. Some of them are;
A survey revealed that 1 in 4 millennials were persuaded by filters to change their appearance.
Yes, but it’ll need work (a lot of it). The beauty space has to embrace realism. Today, we consumers want brands that encourage us to embrace ourselves fully. We all want a brand that can see us for who we are. A brand that has our values and wants in their mind when launching products.
We, consumers, aren't that innocent. We have a part to play as well. We must embrace ourselves and deny what cannot be achieved in society.
Apart from all that, there is indeed a solution to help us keep our mental health in check. Female motivational speakers are among the current changemakers in a positive dialogue transformation. They focus on natural beauty and self-acceptance. Most of these speakers explain how issues concerning self-image are closely related to mental well-being.
At the heart of this movement are organizations like the Speaker Agency. They are known for organizing seminars and conferences with mental health speakers and thought leaders. This helps industries like cosmetics and retail move forward.
Staying beautiful doesn't have to be complicated. All you have to do is accept and embrace who you are. If you rely on beauty ideals to present yourself, you will get two results. You will either;
Feeling confused and don't know what to do? Some campaigns encourage people to accept themselves and focus on mental health. Enterprises like Speaker Agency play a significant role in driving this change.
In the end, it all comes down to accepting who you are. Look at what boosts your confidence and go for it!
