Does treating going make-up free as a radical, defiant, courageous act only reinforce the beauty industry's standards we are trying to change?
Alicia Keys is receiving more attention because of a simple act of choosing to not wear make-up. Is that how we should celebrate her?
I celebrate Alicia Keys for defining her own sense of beauty and choosing her own beauty standards, not an the beauty industry's. I celebrate her because of her dedication to the arts.
The defiant act that Alicia Keys did was define beauty for herself.
So be your baddass self. Make-up, no make-up. You being YOU defines the beauty industry.
