While travelling I happened to meet some ladies. Nice ladies, but some things were a bit unbelievable for them. After hearing what so unbelievable was for them, I could not believe it . Was I a beauty loser for some? I wondered what a woman should and should not do for her beauty and what the perception of beauty really is and how that may be culturally defined for some people. My confessions that I hardly use make-up, when I do, as less as possible and actually am not a star in using it, a shock! Beauty salons are a quite unknown place for me, I never had a manicure or pedicure for example. The confession that I like my eyebrows just the way they are, did and do consider the tweezing once in while, but find they suit my face and give me the right expression, was also a shock! And, No I never straightened or curled or do whatever with my hair on my head. I do keep it clean . And there might have been some more shocking things as well for them. I loved all the beauty advice of very nice ladies and it is not that I do not like taking caring of myself and will never use the advice. I do, in fact, take a lot of care of myself in different ways! And also I do not mind getting tanned by the sun.. In no time I am lucky a tan will vanish again . I am Indian, naturally brown skinned, I am supposed to get brown in the sun, it is good for vitamin D. I am not saying I will never visit a beauty salon, I don't hate it, it does feel good and I might do go if I feel like it, but it does not make me less beautiful or less a lady if I don't visit it regularly. Lack of time plays a role too. If I a beauty loser now? I don't think so. Sometimes less is more. And with doing at the right times "more" I can at least surprise people .
