"Nothing hurts quite like beauty.

The pursuit of beauty isn't pretty. Bodies are pummeled, prodded, taped, tracked, sprayed and simonized; they are defaced, effaced or erased -all in the name of beauty."

I adore this piece of artwork. It speaks to every woman, who has ever gone to extreme lengths for beauty, to make themselves the perfect picture of femininity. Beautiful, is something that has been type-cast in movies, magazines and advertisements around the world. Beauty has turned into something that women must conform to to fit social standards. Which is why women spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on make-up, plastic surgery, and other procedures because they are not 'satisfied' with the way that they look, and the way that they percieve others see them.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and if we are not happy with ourselves, then we can not begin to think that we are beautiful without the use of outside influence.
