The appreciation and respect of ethnic beauty has been on the rise for the last decade. The standard of beauty use to be stick thin, blond, pale skinned women, however, now the pages of fashion magazines feature the exotic looks of Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez and Kim Kardashian, to name a few. In the 1950′s women wanted smaller eyes, thinner lips, smaller bottoms, upturned noses and paler makeup. Today, women seek larger more expressive eyes, darker skin, fuller lips, broader noses and a nice booty. Thicker eyebrows and darker hair, inspired by women of color, are replacing the pencil thin eyebrows and platinum blond standards of the past. Latina, African American, Asian and Indian women are rapidly changing the way the world perceives beauty.

True beauty comes from within as well as outward appearance. Women of color have a confidence and cultural background that should be cherished.
