BEAUTY TO
WOMEN
Every
women wants to be called beautiful, but
so many standards have been set as to
what
beauty is and we are slowly seeing a
change where beauty is not defined by a
standard but a person loving themselves
the way they are, and understanding that
real beauty can be achieved through
attitude, spirit, and other attributes
that have nothing to do with physical
appearance. By the year 2030 we will
realize a fall in the amount of money
spent on people trying to make
themselves beautiful according to a
standard set by a
culture or a trend.
HISTORIC
EXAMPLE
Perceptions surrounding a women’s beauty
and body type not only vary by culture,
but have evolved significantly
throughout history. How do we determine
what makes a person beautiful? Though it
might seem like the standards of beauty
we have today must be historically
universal, really the opposite is true.
The "perfect" female body and looks has
greatly changed over the years.
A few
examples:
▪ Ancient
Egypt (c. 1292 – 1069 B.C.) In this era,
the ideal woman is described as:
slender, narrow shoulders, high waist,
and symmetrical face.
▪ Ancient
Greece (c. 500 – 300 B.C.) During this
time period, the ideal woman was: Plump,
full-bodied, light Skinned.
▪ Fast
forward Postmodern Beauty (c. 2000s –)
early 2000s beauty standards for women
included: Flat Stomach, ‘Healthy’
Skinny, straight hair, large breasts +
behind, plump lips.
WHICH POPULAR SERVICE WILL FADE OUT
We will
see a fall in purchases hair products
that straighten ladies hair as people
begin to appreciate their natural hair.
(Some of these have proven to make hair
very weak and thin hence causing
breakages).
The normal
plastic surgery will become very
unpopular as people realize that beauty
is really how you feel not what another
person, or Hollywood, or a female
celebrity or culture may say it is.
People
will not spend billions on cosmetics for
example the skin lightening creams
people have been pressured to buy which
may have not so great side effects, or
buy loads of make up just to make
themselves beautiful according to a
standard.
WHAT NEW SERVICE WILL FADE IN
People
have seen and realized what true beauty
is where it emanates from. A new trend
that allows people to love themselves as
they are and be confident will set in.
Advertisers will not only use the skinny
girl with plump lips for a cover
magazine or to advertise a product they
will seek confidence, they will seek
intelligence, they will seek more of who
a person is rather than what they look
like.
People
will stop using the expensive cosmetics.
The ugly truth is that these products
may contain a lot of chemicals that can
have damaging side-effects on your skin,
hair and overall health. People will go
back to the more natural products and
herbs.
Fitness
coaches will have more customers.
Instead of taking slimming tablets
people will work out,
eat healthy, stay fit and know that
it’s not the weight but more about
being healthy.
People
will learn to love themselves and once
you love yourself the people around you
will love you and appreciate you back. |
