Every girl dreams of being beautiful—of being a knockout and feeling good about how they look. But sadly, too many of us always hate something about ourselves. We’re too fat. We’re too skinny. We’re too dark. We’re too fair. We’re too hairy. We’re balding. The list goes on.
No wonder cosmetic surgeons are making a killing! From botox, diamond peels and liposuction, to laser treatments that can erase wrinkles, remove hair permanently or whiten your skin, science has found a remedy to everything you want to change in your body.
But is that the secret of true beauty?
In this amusing and enlightening book, bestselling author Rissa Singson Kawpeng tackles issues that women face in the mirror every day—their looks, their self-esteem, and their character. Rissa gives you the lowdown on the world’s standard of beauty in her humorous but often touching style. At the same time, she shatters myths with the inside story based on God’s Word.
Drawing from years of Christian ministry and her own struggles with insecurity, self-image, and how to be a godly woman in today’s world—Rissa has produced a manual on inner beauty regimens guaranteed to make you attractive in the eyes of God and men.
"Inner goodness reflects in outer beauty" is the gist this book's message. Much of the advice is centered on having a positive, realistic, and practical disposition about oneself in relation to others. The application of Bible passages are easy enough to grasp, and would resonate with any sincere Catholic aiming at self-improvement.
The advice is mainly for ladies, but men would benefit by reading this glimpse into a sensible Christian woman's mind.
With its real stories and concrete examples, this writing is a fresh and potent counterpoint to toxic mainstream female narratives.
