Re: How do I stop talking myself into getting uneccessary beauty treatments

Just think about disgusting perverts being attracted to you if you're beautiful. Eeew GROSS right?

Now think of how awesome it would be if you just didn't care about the way you look and how free you will feel.

That's a good way of thinking about it. Thank you.

Just saying I usually only see teenage girls be so picky or insecure about their looks like this.

As people grow and mature they should grow out of that type of thing.

MmmMMMMMMMmm. I see. I guess I am still growing. Soon I won't give a toss. I am sure.

Does it make me immature to be leaning towards things in my OP?

Sister, you should especially abstain from Instagram.

Its only purpose is for a certain type of photography (ie. there is no need/requirement for such photography), which is why it is regarded as impermissible by many scholars.

Spending a lot of time on that app will create these types of feelings in you: feeling inadequate, jealousy, depression/sadness, anger, frustration, etc.

Delete the app and replace it with something better, like a deeni app (or just stop using apps gradually).

Damn, I didn't even think of it like that. My explore page is full of landscape photography. Lol. But damn.....

The natural you will be infinitely better than the fake you any day of the week.

I agree. I do love my natural look tbh. I can and do go out daily with no makeup. It is just the temptation of what I can change etc.

Well, there is no way you're getting this perception out of thin air. There's a certain influence that has made you think this way..Maybe friends, maybe tv..Allahu Allam, you know yourself.

Whatever that influence is, stay away from it.

MmmMmMmMMMmmm. Friends. About time I cut out half-ass company.

Nah. I am on IG - only social media I use. I use it for my photography. I don't want to look like anyone else. I am just weak, and convinced if I look better, I will feel better - which I know is total BS.
