If you have a nose like mine, this message is for you And if you don't have a nose like mine, this message is also for you. I saw these beautiful ladies on the street and when we walked by each other, they looked at me. Okay. And it gave me an idea for content because often on, in my comments, people are saying to me, when people look at me, I feel like they're staring at me and they're judging me for my nose or for the way I look or who I am. So I literally just ask these ladies if they'd be okay filming this. And I wanted to ask them what they actually think of me, with a big nose and all. When they look at me like, what do you. What. What's the first instinct? I think you're beautiful. Beautiful. So beautiful. And so beautiful. Are you just saying that, though, for the camera? No, no, no. It's beautiful. You have such a divine. Yes. Structure too. Great jawline. This defined jawline. This defined nose. Like, I love it. That's really nice of you. And you know, it's like, I look at you ladies and I keep saying ladies, cause I don't wanna say girls. Like, you're not young girls the same, like, gorgeous. And we all are. So your face is completely different than mine and hers. Is there one thing that you're insecure about? Like having acne? Sometimes. Me too. I get insecure. About that. I'm not wearing makeup right now, either. So. And do you feel like people are judging you? Back in high school, yes. But now I feel like no one really cares. I'm so focused on how I look, and I'm so convinced that all the things that I see, my skin, I will say, is actually not bad at all. But I get cystic acne. Yeah. And so I always feel like other people look at me, and they think I'm, like, dirty and I don't take care of myself. But then when I see other people with acne, I'm like, I don't even notice it. And I would never think that about them. Them. So I don't know why I think that about myself. That's a good lens. Wow. I think that's like a. That's perfect, my girl. Thanks, guys. Thank you. Mwah.

Keep watching till end - they share something great 🤍 I can predict comments of people saying that of course they’re going to say I’m beautiful, but the whole purpose and point of this is to remind you that truly most of the time when someone looks at you, they are just thinking you are beautiful and admiring you. Big hug. 🤍
