What makes me beautiful is the general optimism and love I carry with me. I always present myself with a warm smile and kindness because I believe to be truly beautiful, you should make others feel beautiful and empowered as well.

GOD, for sure! I am NOWHERE near a perfect follower of Jesus, but His teachings truly keep me grounded and encouraged. If it weren’t for Him I DEFINITELY wouldn’t have made it this far and I wouldn’t be the person that I am today.

Helping people! Being 18 is such an uncertain time. Who knows what I’ll be doing in 5 years from now, but no matter where life takes me, I want to make the people around me feel happy, safe and supported however I can.

*I would describe my fashion style as unique. I like to switch it up on the daily just so I can keep it fresh and interesting. It really depends on what kind of vibe I am feeling that day or night.

Everyday when you wake up, speak positive affirmations to yourself, tell yourself that you are beautiful, you are loved and surround yourself with people that make you feel that way! Stay happy, stay positive and always love yourself no matter what!

To be my own kind of beautiful means to accept the flaws in my own reflection-to know that I was made in God’s image and that no one is perfect, but I can give myself the gratitude of knowing my own kind of beauty held within.

My style is controlled by how I feel. Most of the time, I'm relaxed, and I like to wear something simple like leggings and a simple top. However, I do love to play in make-up, so whenever I've got on a full face of makeup, I do love for my clothes to be more glamorous

Comparison is the thief of joy. It can be easy to fall into the comparison trap. I’d encourage you to go to the mirror, and tell yourself out loud “Dang I look good!” followed by something you like about yourself. Do this often. It can feel silly at first, but this technique has helped drastically with my self confidence.

I would tell her to practice self love 100%. And that every women goes through it and it always will get better. Stop comparing yourself to what you see on social media and in magazines! Because you are your own person and that’s what makes your beautiful.

To be your own kind of beautiful means, to realize that, God created you and no other human being is like you. You are unique and beautiful in every way, and those insecurities you may have, whether its stretch marks, or any other marks on your body that you wish you could get rid of, those marks are what God designed and, you shouldn’t feel ashamed of something that makes you unique and even every case more beautiful. You should own it and love yourself

Confidence is something that I recently was able to find in myself. I had to dig deep and throw out everything that society deemed “perfect” and focus on the fact that God made me this way for a reason. Self-love is crucial in being confident, and I still struggle with it from time to time, so I know how it feels. I would tell someone else struggling with this, to focus on how amazing they are and don’t let others try and stomp on their sunshine, because they’ll try. I think the happiest people are the ones who have endured sadness, and struggle and have come back stronger from it. I know I have, and that’s what I wish for others.

I would remind then that God created them EXACTLY how he wanted them. Everything about them is beautiful/handsome because everyone is wonderful in their own way and they shouldn’t waste their time worrying about the opinions of others.

different and everyone is beautiful. Being your own kind of beautiful is being comfortable and

happy in your own body no matter what the scale or the critics may say.
