1. How did you feel being photographed without makeup? What did you learn about yourself?

I felt being photographed without makeup was a lot easier as I did not have to worry about having everything perfect. It also made me feel more like myself with not having all the uptake on everything. i learned that to be beautiful you do not need all the makeup; you can just be you to be beautiful.


2. Tell me about a time when someone made you feel bad about your appearance. How did you deal with it or overcome it?

At school people can be mean and make jokes about the way you look, and it can make you feel bad. They can make all kinda of comments that can make you feel less that you are. I overcome this by listening to my friends and those I am closest to make me feel beautiful. They make me realize that the other people are not worth listening too.


3. What characteristics and traits do you think make you beautiful? What makes others truly beautiful?

Traits that make me truly beautiful being guffy, fun and outgoing. This helps me feel better about myself. I am also a helpful person. With being helpful and I like to make sure others are happy. Things that make others truly beautiful are emotions and who the person is. The comment that makes me feel this about others is "It is not what is on some ones outside but what is on the insides"


4. What do you think this project does for girls’ confidence? What can they learn about themselves? 

Project Beauty shows girls that they do not need all the extras to be beautiful and have fun being themselves.


5 WHAT DOES TRUE BEAUTY MEAN TO YOU?
