Earlier this week, Hania shared photos of her acne and asked on Instagram, "Why is my skin defining me? Who has made these beauty standards that we always feel the need to match? [...] I know that the idea of being โ€œperfectโ€ is appealing to majority but you donโ€™t need to be an airbrushed flawless image to feel beautiful."

Truthfulness and Goodness of nature, are the other two ingredients that make a person beautiful besides being good looking. Makeup conceals the truth and those who do not hesitate in telling the truth are the real good nature people and therefore beautiful.

Very good mantra of life to accept, own and defend flaws within and it's quite normal way to avoid useless stress and tension.
