12 Appearance Details Many Women Are Unhappy With, But Shouldn’t

Psychologists point out that, sometimes, a large part of people’s self-esteem is based on their physical appearance. Insecurities can arise as a result of unkind comments from family or friends, as well as comparisons of your body with beauty standards dictated by fashion magazines. Often, however, people are dissatisfied with some detail of their appearance, which others, on the contrary, consider a virtue.

We, from incredible.clubwe’ve put together some characteristics of the female appearance, which you definitely don’t need to worry about anymore .

Cellulite is present in 80 to 90% of women, regardless of weight or body type. This characteristic may be more evident in one woman and barely noticeable in another.

I was worried about the “problem” of cellulite. I spent half the day in front of the mirror, trying to understand if she threatened me. Then I thought: “Does my partner know what this is?” I called him and asked. He promised we’d talk tonight when he got back. When he got home he asked me: “Well, where is the terrible monster?” © Podslushano / VK

Most women are concerned about the appearance of their legs. Some are so shy that they avoid buying short dresses, skirts or shorts, they don’t take off their sarongs on the beach, and are even willing to undergo surgery in search of “perfect” legs. Meanwhile, the experience of celebrities shows that it is not necessary to have the ideal standards of proportion to conquer the catwalks and the red carpet. For example, the highest paid British model, Kate Moss, has already admitted to having crooked legs, a characteristic that she takes into account when choosing a shoe model. In 2006, actress Angelina Jolie was named the most beautiful woman in the world. Today, some media outlets criticize her for being too skinny, but that doesn’t stop her from wearing short skirts and showing off her legs.

The shape and size of the ears also cause some women suffering, who try to hide them with their hair or a hat. Celebrities demonstrate self-respect by proving that you can be beautiful even if you have floppy ears.

In childhood, I was always ashamed of my ears, because I thought they were big and very prominent. My friend, who loved fantasy books, once told me I had cute elf ears. Today, I have no more complexes. © Podslushano — Zdes govoriat o tebe / VKWhen I was a teenager, I told my parents: “I hate my ears. That’s not fair. People are always laughing at me. I can’t do a hairstyle without the ears sticking out.” Today I’m an adult and the shape of my ears hasn’t changed, but it doesn’t bother me anymore. Most of the time, people don’t even notice. © Lauren Ramesbottom /Quora

For women with large shoe sizes, sometimes finding a perfect pair in a regular store can be a challenge. But that doesn’t make these women any less attractive. Uma Thurman reveals that she didn’t like her size 43 body and feet until she started working with Quentin Tarantino, who helped her be more confident. And Monica Bellucci, who wears a size 44, isn’t afraid to draw attention to her feet in stunning high heels.

My girlfriend wears the same shoe size as me. It’s quite convenient. I can try on the shoes I buy for her, and she can wear my boots. © MacFriday / Quora

The return of the mini length and the arrival of summer has women worried about the way their knees look. Journalist and fashion designer Dawn O’Porter notes that this part of the body causes the most dissatisfaction in women, surpassing even concerns about the waist. A few seasons ago, stylists helped to disguise this detail with dense dark tights and over-the-knee boots. In the current summer season, many designers and stylists recommend betting on miniskirts to highlight the legs, hips and waist. And the stars encourage showing your knees, regardless of their size.

Women with big expressive eyes can also be dissatisfied with their shape and size. This probably surprises women with small eyes, who come up with different tricks to enlarge them with makeup, exercises and even plastic surgery.

In elementary school, a girl made fun of my huge eyes. They really were big and the pupils looked like lenses. This girl, and soon the whole class, cursed me for that reason. Not surprisingly, I hated my eyes and considered myself ugly. But actually, I have beautiful eyes. © Podslushano — Zdes govoriat o tebe / VK

Behind that pretty name is a skin disorder called keratosis pilaris, characterized by the appearance of red or black dots on “goose bumps” skin. Usually, the problem goes away on its own around the age of 30.

When I started dating someone, I would immediately tell them that I had keratosis pilaris, the main reason for my insecurity. Literally everyone reacted like this: “I didn’t even notice this detail, everything is fine.” After receiving this answer, I forgot about it myself. The moral of the story is that we are our own harshest critics. Don’t let your skin take away the pleasure of interacting with other people. You deserve the best, and anyone who doesn’t accept you as they really are doesn’t deserve to have a place in your life. © melonhead3311 / RedditI used to sit next to this beautiful girl in one of my classes and didn’t even realize she had keratosis pilaris until we got to know each other a few months later. © messyyminddd / Reddit

Often, some women are ashamed of their high forehead and try to hide it with hair or hats. The red carpet divas, on the other hand, encourage self-esteem and not hide this supposed “defect”.

I have a big forehead. Rihanna too and she’s beautiful. I’m learning not to be ashamed of it. The size of the forehead, in the end, is not important. © AshlandSouth / Reddit I find faces with high foreheads especially attractive, in fact I like elongated faces. In the old days, women even shaved their hair above their forehead to make it bigger, because it was in fashion. © Ilikechicken777 / RedditI’ve never heard anyone complain about a person’s big forehead, but I’ve heard plenty of complaints about some people’s character. © Jonny Mai / Quora

Tall women sometimes feel excluded, for example, due to difficulties in choosing clothes or other inconveniences. However, some managed to overcome insecurity and found advantages in their height. Among them are actresses Nicole Kidman (1.80 m) and Brooke Shields (1.83 m), who confidently highlight their long legs with high heels.

Since my childhood, I have always been the tallest in the class. Now I’m 6’1 and I’ve always loved being tall. When it comes to outdoor games and sports, I’ve almost always been the best. Thanks to that, I got a full college athletic scholarship worth $50,000 a year. I often get compliments: “You are so tall! I could be a model.” At that height, you “frighten off” insecure men. To date a woman that tall, one needs to be very confident. © Eva Glasrud ​​/ Quora My teenage years were hell! I was the tallest girl in the whole school, terribly shy and insecure. All my clothes were short, I didn’t even dream of swimsuits and overalls, and when we went camping, the mattress was always too small. With age, I see more positives. I can eat more than others, I have a better view, above everyone’s heads. My husband and children are tall too, and we always get compliments on our beautiful family. I can also pick figs from the fig trees in my parents’ garden very easily. © Delphine Corbac / Quora

While thousands of people try to lose weight, there are those who dream of gaining a few extra pounds, after some “well-intentioned” advice. But if you look at the slender stars of the stage and runway, you’ll realize there’s nothing to worry about. Singer Celine Dion, 1.71 m, weighs 53 kilograms, and Victoria Beckham, a supporter of healthy eating, weighs only 48 kilograms with a height of 1.63 m.

Since childhood, it is difficult for me to gain weight, because I am asthenic and have an accelerated metabolism. I was judged my whole life, which caused me some insecurity. Time has passed and now all those who criticized me for being too thin are suffering from excess weight. I finally realized that eating and not getting fat is a gift. © Podslushano — Zdes govoriat o tebe / VKI am always advised to eat more. Some even went so far as to say that I had anorexia, not knowing that it was not just a physical disorder, but also a mental one. There are many such “advisers”. © Oksana Klindukhova / FacebookIn my later years at school, girls made fun of me for having small breasts and narrow hips. I even bought padding to add volume to my hips, like Penélope Cruz in Volver, although I never used it. Years have passed and now I get a lot of compliments on my “model look”, including from those former schoolmates.

Big teeth are a genetic trait. Celebrities with millions of fans serve as an example of how to make a wide smile your trademark. Some even use this feature to promote different products from their own brands.

Before, I was ashamed of my smile — I have big front teeth. Until the end of the 9th grade, I used to smile with my mouth closed or cover it with my hand. But one photographer changed everything. We were photographed for the graduation album, and on my turn, he said: “Open your mouth, you have beautiful teeth!” Since then I smile a lot and I don’t feel ashamed. And I always get compliments. This is how one person and a few words can radically change your life and increase your self-confidence. © Podslushano / Ideer

Some people have scars on their faces, or on visible parts of their bodies, that they are ashamed of and try to hide. Sandra Bullock got hers playing in a lake, but she doesn’t try to hide it.

A few years ago, I had an accident. As a result, I got scars on my face. At first, I was embarrassed—people reacted unpleasantly, talked behind my back, walked away from me. Over time, I got used to it, especially with the support of some people who confidently claimed that there was a certain charm to my scars. Time passed, and one day at work, when they brought up the subject of accidents, a relatively new colleague was surprised and said, “I just noticed that you have a scar.” Conclusion: it takes…
