I used to get my makeup done at Chanel counter when I had a formal event to attend. One time this old french makeup artist told me that women should never mess with their natural hair colour or skin colour or whatever, because they complement each other best when left alone.

She was right, obviously, and I really think it applies more broadly. When you undergo cosmetic surgery to butcher your natural body, you are screwing with the fundamentals. You are you in totality, a complete and whole human person. You aren’t a widget with replaceable parts!

By all means workout, clean your teeth & be well groomed, but you don’t need to treat your features as if your body were a renovators delight. Take care of yourself. Don’t lop off body parts or get wacky plastic implants & shave your bones down into different shapes. That’s nuts!
