Model Saheefa Jabbar encourages women to let go of their body insecurities

Model Saheefa Jabbar Khattak is using her social media to address important issues relating to body image.

"Freckles , Blemishes, Fine lines, Open pores, Dark circles, Acne, Scars, Fatness. Why [does] a woman worry so much for all these things?" wrote the model in her Instagram post.

The model, who received backlash for cutting her hair short last year, asked women to reflect on the source of their self-doubt and encouraged them to let go of conventional beauty standards.

Her post read, "Where [does] that self doubt came from? Why don't I like seeing my face in the mirror without a concealer? No matter how nicely dressed I am, no matter how well spoken and educated or successful I am, there's always a doubt! Self doubt. Why do I feel the need to shave my arms and legs every second day and let's not forget about the painful hot wax process. I am more than this. YOU are more than this."

And Saheefa's fans are already cheering her on.

Strange! She herself has her photos WITH makeup. Please let women do what they are comfortable with, no need to create the so-called false consciousness.

Good move but practice it too. We would like to see you with unshaven arms and without concealer next time you do an AD. If you do it, only then we will believe you, otherwise it's just publicity stunt to attract attention and stay in News like Meera.
