Curious to what some of the world's most beautiful women (inside and out) had to say about beauty, I went searching for their secrets. What I wanted to find was their fitness regimes, diet, and skin care routines. What I actually found was so much better than that. The ladies who we can truly call beautiful don't have any special creams or super food secrets. What they do have to share can help us all and should be included in our daily routines.
Elizabeth Taylor: "In the end, it really only matters what you think of your self." "You have to accept yourself for what you are. If what you are includes some gray hairs and a few wrinkles, so what! Remember, self-acceptance is essential to many things."
Catherine Deneuve: "I rest, I sleep, I do exercise very little. I don't run, that's for sure. I go out into the country regularly because I like it. When I'm not working, I try to do things I like with people I like. It's important to be in a nice environment in your own life. "
Meryl Streep: "My daughters had helped me to stop worrying about my appearance over the years. I wasted so many years thinking I wasn't pretty enough and why didn't I have Jessica Lange's body or somebody else's legs? What a waste of time."
Sophia Loren: "Beauty is how you feel inside, and it reflects in your eyes. It is not something physical."
Audrey Hepburn: "For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge you’ll never walk alone.
People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed. Never throw out anybody. Remember, If you ever need a helping hand, you’ll find one at the end of your arm.
As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others. The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole, but true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows, and the beauty of a woman with passing years only grows!"
Although I will still search for the perfect creams and mascara, I think as I get older these quotes resonate with me more. Thanks for the advice, ladies!
