Time

So I was reading this article in TIME magazine about fashion in young people. Apparently, more girls from the age of six to ten years old are using beauty products than have done so at any other time in history. From makeup to hair styling products, this young crowd is being groomed by the beauty industry as early as possible. they often have regularly scheduled manicures, pedicures and salon appointments. (I'm 22 years old and I've only had a pedicure once. and I go to Great Clips!) How sad that Americans are so obsessed with looks! When will it stop? Why do you think we are so caught up in appearance? Is is a cultural thing? Does it have to do with this time period in history? How influential is the media in fueling this obsession? Tell me what you think!

    That is so sad! Physical beauty should not be the focus of our time. We should put more attention on the inner beauty. God cares more about the inside than He does the outside, so that should be our focus.
