Transcript
00:00When I first really started believing I was beautiful, regardless of what people saying,
00:04was probably when I was about 26 years old.
00:07So it took about 10 years for me to really develop and say I love myself and if no one
00:12around me thinks I'm beautiful, I still think I'm beautiful.
00:24My challenge for all women out there is to really use makeup to enhance your beauty instead
00:29of redefining your beauty.
00:31Just really accept who you are and you will feel the most beautiful that you ever have.
00:40I've definitely embraced my age and getting older.
00:43I absolutely love where I am.
00:45I feel so much more confident than I ever have.
00:49What really matters is how you treat other people and how you view yourself and that's
00:54beautiful.
00:58The definition of beauty is synonymous with confidence.
01:02It's all about how you feel and how those feelings are expressed in different ways.
01:09When I feel confident, then I feel beautiful.
01:14I told my daughter, work on your brand, then after we can talk about the body because the
01:20brand is the power.
01:24If I could tell all women one beauty secret, really embrace what makes you different.
01:31I think the beauty style and wisdom is my strength from my mother and my grandmother and never
01:37to give up no matter what I ever chose to do in my life.
01:40And I don't make excuses for things.
01:42I just try and find another way to get what I want, how I want.
01:47Controlling my own power and not giving that to anyone else and that's important because
01:50people can manipulate you and change how you view yourself and really cause harm to your
01:55mental state if you don't have that self-esteem and that confidence.
02:00Beauty is loving yourself unrequitedly and ardently.
