Inspired by the thread about how attractive you consider yourself.
I have often been told that I am attractive. I am tall and a naturally very slim with a nice face and good bone structure. I do scrub up ok and make an impact if I put on a nice dress and high heels.
However, I don't feel like I am a "natural beauty" - what people don't realise is that my pert bottom is actually covered in cellulite, my boobs are actually teeny tiny and I rely on padded bras to get my curves, my hair is the most fine, flyaway, frizzy hair ever and it takes me ages with a pile of products and straighteners to get it looking even half decent, I have had dental work as I used to have awful teeth. Plus I have really pale, blotchy skin so tend to keep my skin covered up for that reason (always wear long sleeves etc)
I don't actually wear that much make up as I don't like the heavily made up look, I just know how to dress to hide my flaws.
If you saw me on a night out or smartly dressed and made up you might say I am attractive, but if you saw me on a beach, make up free having just emerged from the sea, I don't think anyone would call me a natural beauty.
So does everyone feel like this, or are some of you natural beauties?
