Conventional beauty is subjective, subjected to change, and in my opinion demonstrates a shortened start and end point to the potential of a broader, fuller, more fulfilling palette of the experience of beauty and any and all of someone’s definitions of it. You’re glowing and mesmurizing, and your mind is incredible. I love how thoughtful, articulate, and poetic your video is :)

wow so well said thank you so much, this gives me so much to think about. you are so right about the idea of subjective, subjected to change. i find it funny that the industry makes us feel terrified of change (acne, wrinkles, gaining weight) when tahst the nature of everything. their basically selling the false promise that they can stop the only inevitable.

I feel this and it's something I'm struggling with. I am searching for new clothes and products that could make me prettier or more attractive every damn day. I think I have become addicted to online shopping but I am never happy or satisfied with anything I buy. The clothes don't look as good on me as imagined, the products don't make me pretty enough and I still despise the way I look while I don't even know why I care so much. And I don't have any hobbies anymore, I don't care about anything else and it's making me depressed.

I understand you. Everything has become about beauty, but understanding the source can help. In a capitalistic society that profits off self-hate, loving yourself is an act of rebellion. Find ways to rebel. Take a social media detox. Try for a day not to fall into a robotic habit of online shopping and scrolling (often, when something is free (socials), you are the product). Seeking beauty through materialism is an addictive habit, an endless chase. Searching outside ourselves in an attempt to find peace within is counterintuitive. Then again, a lot of what we do is. Most external stimulation teaches us not to trust ourselves. Even self-help books are indoctrinating sheep mentalities because if they taught us how to think for ourselves, there would be no industry. No more lost souls to profit off of. You are beautiful, believe me, I don't know what you look like, but that doesn't matter. You are beautiful because everyone is, even if it's not reflected in the stereotypical impossible-to-achieve ads we consume daily. You don't need to spend money to be of value. You are enough in all ways, always. I hope this helps; thank you for your comment. Always out of love, Kaya Chloé.
