Unretouched

Looks like a well-done job with makeup. I once had makeup professionally applied by an artist who worked for Revlon. When she was finished, I could not believe my eyes. My skin not only looked absolutely flawless, but it demonstrated that there are cosmetics and application techniques that affect how the light hits your face and actually change the apparent shape of your face.

I've known women whose complexions are simply gorgeous, with or without makeup. If you want to see a real eye-opener of trickery, though, check out this Dove video, Evolution of Beauty. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=knEIM16NuPg

It is amazing what you can do with make up and a bit of photo manipulation. Though it's how you feel on the inside that's the most important.

Exactly. And that's the message young girls really need to hear, and believe, when they see these PhotoShopped images of impossibly beautiful models and celebrities.

And if you treat people ugly, then no amount of PhotoShop can hide that flaw.
