MAKEUP AND SELF ESTEEM

Self esteem =

• how you estimate yourself

• what you think of yourself

• how much value you put on yourself

People with healthy self esteem are comfortable with their own skin as well as what other's attitudes towards them AKA what others think of them.

Those whom are struggling with self esteem are mostly care too much about what people

say about them

Media sets the image of what this generation should look good all the time such as:

• skinnier body

• tanner/ fairer

• perfect hair 24/7 etc.

People comment on how each other look/ dress/ present themselves

Some get complimented, some get criticised...
