I have always been very insecure even though people tell me how beautiful I am all of the time. I had alot of bad things happin to me when I was younger  and I think that because of those things, I can’t see what other people see when they look at me, but I was watching CBN and saw this interview and looked up the website and I’m very glad that I did. I usually wear lots of make-up, but I thought that this was surprisingly a good picture. I would just like to thank Nicole for showing us all that you don’t have to show it all for your beauty to be recognized. I have always wanted to model but never thought I was pretty enough, but maybe I could try!!

This is me without makeup.  I typically wear light foundation and maybe some blush or mascara.  I love the fact that within the past few months I’ve become less dependent on wearing makeup.  I used to wear eyeliner, mascara, shadow, foundation, blush and or bronzer, lip stick and or gloss and it was so much.  I am really proud of myself for finally liking myself without all of the makeup.  Granted here people have said I look super pale, have no eye lashes, and my lips are pale and a little chapped, but I like this one.  I think it shows me for me and I wouldn’t want any other picture.

My name is Rachel.  I’m fifteen, turning sixteen tomorrow, and I now know how to like my face without makeup, a step that was made possibly largely by Project Inspired here.  Girls, we are more precious than rubies!  Proverbs 31 ladies!!

I wear makeup every chance I get because I hate how I look without it.  Because of some serious health issues, I’ve had extremely dark circles and pimples since I was 9, which did nothing to help my insecurity.  As I’ve gotten older, I’ve started only wearing minimal makeup because I feel more confident.  What I like best about myself are my eyes.  They’re very expressive and always seem to be lit up with laughter!  Girls, always remember, you are beautiful, no matter what because GOD SAY SO!!!

I NEVER wear makeup!! I can’t stand it…it makes me feel fake. I put on some eye shadow once and disliked it GREATLY. Never again have I worn makeup. My friends have tried to pressure me into wearing makeup by telling me I will be the only girl without makeup on and I tell them that I do not mind being the odd one out sometimes, as long as I feel pretty..I’m okay.

I hardly ever wear makeup, but when I do, it’s just because I want to. For a while, I felt that I didn’t look good enough, but I never wore makeup until my mom gave the okay. I was constantly picked on girls during school and it seemed like they never missed a chance to insult me. By the time I had turned 16 though, I didn’t feel like I had to impress anyone anymore. I looked into the mirror and said, “I like being me just fine.”

This is me without makeup. I usually only try to wear makeup if I have to. I know that I am beautiful and I love the way God made me. What I like most about myself is my eyes and my hair. My hair is actually naturally curly, but I love wearing it either way! I know God made me special, and I would never want to change anything about myself.

I have this feeling without makeup on. This feeling is an, “I’m a little girl again!” type of feeling. For a little while in my life I was obsessed with makeup. Then, God stepped in. He said, “Whoa there sister! I think you need to know… makeup isn’t everything!”And now, makeup isn’t everything to me. Pure beauty in my heart is.

I’m a good listener; I’m very understanding; I have a bubbly personality that a lot of my friends like.

Hi, I used to think I was this fat, ugly monster. The strange thing is no one else thought so. I never wore makeup until this year and I use it sparingly even now. I love my eyes – they tend to change from blue to green and I like my hair. I used to dye my hair excessively and cry when it turned out rotten. Now, I’m back to my natural color and I realized how pretty it was. I suffer from low self-esteem and depression and now I’ve learned to just give my problems up to God.
God made me in His image and it took a long time for me to realize that.
