Go Naked!

Since Britney Spears and Kim Kardashian went nude and unretouched last two weeks, many Hollywood celebrities are now joining the hype by exposing their imperfections to the public.

Britney is proud of her imperfection and all, a source said and apparently these unretouched & unphotoshopped photos are released "to highlight the pressure exerted on women to look perfect."

On the other hand, Kim Kardashian also urged young girls not to overstress on their weights and start embracing their curvy bodies.

Sounds divinely well interpreted...

But one second...

Aren't all these so-called unretouched pictures are still heavily rely on makeup, lighting, soft lenses or anything that could make these stars look as prefect as possible before photoshopped?

Even if the stars revealed their non-makeup pictures, they still have plastic surgery or botox or etc etc etc running underneath their skin. Look at Heidi Montag, she doesn't need any touch-up at all cause she got all the work done before hand.

So perhaps the real definition of unretouched photos does not exist in Hollywood or even in blogoshpere. We are too into perfection, perfect weight, perfect hair color, perfect makeup, perfect dress and the list goes 763028438 pages long.

I do agree with Britney & Kim, we should embrace our true selves (although their 100% unretouched pictures do not seem persuasive to me).

To demonstrate real support, I'm gonna join the march by revealing two of my 100% unretouched photos taken this morning as soon as I brushed my teeth, and yup, with hives some more :p

Wearing the funny schoolteacher glasses and my fave CK and Nike lounge wear with no makeup, no hairdo, no nothing. This is the "original" Bev that Chean sees E.V.E.R.Y.D.A.Y ^_____^

I love both the after-makeup & non-makeup Bev equally well cause they are both myself, just a different version.

It's just like the comp software that you're using, aren't you need to upgrade it from time to time? I'm just adore positive changes, period.

Final thought of the day: you can always say NO to makeup, but you can never say NO to skincare. That's what I think all the girls should really pay attention to. Love yourself by loving your skin first. ❤❤
