Not all know that women who participate in beauty pageants have to pamper themselves for many number of days with creams and lotions and also be strict on diet and live on warm water and lemon juice most of the time. The make-up artists do an excellent work on the faces of the contestants by carving and chiseling a work of art on their faces to make their skin glow. But only when the show is over, and the artificial "everything" is removed from them do they realise how naturally beautiful they are.

The natural glow just happens if a woman has a beautiful smile, a kind heart, maintaining a good body and eat a proper diet and keep the inner soul beautiful and clean.

"If you're lookin' for a lover
don't judge a book by its cover
She may be fine on the outside
but so untrue on the inside."

Or it might be vice versa where she might not be fine on the outside but can be wonderful inside!

Not only women. Even men are becoming more conscious of their looks because women these days consider external beauty as one of the characteristics of a lover. The increase in the number of family saloons worldwide proves that the entire family wishes to appear good.

At the same time a value education on inner beauty is also needed to make them realise that a beautiful soul glows more than a beautiful skin!
