Can Beauty Be Honest?
When on the topic of beauty there are two different forms of the term. There is honest beauty, which is a person's natural beauty, or there is constructed beauty, which is beauty that is made. In this world there is a such thing as honest beauty. Honest beauty is natural beauty that is not made by using photoshop or any other editing. Honest beauty is the beauty a person without any type of altering. Unlike constructed beauty where you take someone's natural beauty that is being altered by photoshop.
To answer the question, yes beauty can be honest. Beauty is only honest when nobody is altering your beauty in any way. Honest beauty is seeing someone without any make up on. This is honest beauty because there is no make up on to change the way you look. Honest beauty can be taking a picture of somebody with no make up on. These are examples of honest beauty because there is nothing that is altering the natural looks of a person.
Unlike honest beauty, constructed beauty would be someone that is wearing make up. This is constructed because it is covering up and changing someone's natural looks. Photoshop is another example of constructed beauty because you are changing the way a person looks, and altering the natural features of the person. It is not honest and true beauty because it is enhancing the way someone looks. Honest beauty is the natural looks that is not being enhanced.
Honest beauty is the same as natural beauty. It is how someone looks without anything that is enhancing those looks and features. A lot of men that you see have honest beauty because most men, unless they are on TV do not wear makeup or anything that will change their looks. On the other hand, some women have honest beauty and some women don't. Since women wear make up a lot, this is constructed beauty because the make up is changing the way they look. But, at some point women have honest beauty because they are not always wearing make up. When women don't have make up on, this is their honest beauty.
Beauty can be honest. The only way to make beauty honest is to not wear or use anything that will enhance or change that honest beauty. Once you have make up on or use photoshop, you are constructing beauty and it is no longer honest. A person's natural looks are their honest beauty.
Nice Mike!
