When it comes to feeling beautiful you have to start from the inside out. When you are happy within and you feel confident, then your true beauty will come out. You must not focus on the negative. When you look in the mirror, try to focus on what you like about yourself. There is no magic when it comes to beauty. When you learn how to use the right tools, the possibilities are endless. It's actually very simple and fun. I have worked for many cosmetic companies and the most important thing that I have learned is to keep things natural. You don't need a lot of makeup to look good. You want to enhance what you have, not cover it up. I have always wanted to help other people feel good about themselves. When you spot a person who has a pretty smile or a nice outfit, tell them. It can turn a person's day from bad to good just knowing that someone noticed them. You will also see that there is always something beautiful about everyone. In order to discover the best part of you, you have to follow your dreams and fulfill your passions. When you pass your reflection in the mirror, smile at what you see and you will be certain to feel your very best! © 2008 Meryl Hartstein
