this is so true. I hated being african american, because I live in an area where I don't see women like me. I wanted to be lighter-skinned and have long flowing hair and that if I had those things my life would be better. Now that I'm older I see that I have my own kind of beauty, and that's more precious than any standard or measuring stick I could be put up against. It's hard sometimes, but I'm happier this way than I ever was when I wanted to be something I wasn't.
Girl you are a classic beauty. Dark hair and pale skin will never go out of style. Trends come and go. Also I love how you speak of your personality/soul, because let me tell you even though you are beautiful on the outside I always sense your inner presence that makes you very beautiful. I'm glad you brought it up. Our real beauty comes from the inside.
I'm so insecure about my weight and my looks, I struggle to buy new clothes because I know they won't look good on me. I haven't gone out with my friends for nearly 2 months, the only time I leave the house is to go to my classes...
+Min Yoongi Jinius please please pleaseee don't do that to yourself!Try to change your mindset..Do it for you not for others.The years will go away and you'll be like where did my life go?I know confidence is something that we all struggle with.Try to aknowledge what you love about you!
+Min Yoongi Jinius No. Don't. The new clothes won't look good on you ? Who has the right to say that ? Go out. Have fun. The look people will give you - if they're actually looking because believe me, most of the time they're not - doesn't matter at the end of the day. It'll all fade away. The only thing that actually matters is you.
i've never heard a beauty guru say anything like "invest in your education," and to tell people to work to improve their personality & their inside. you almost always hear things about how to improve the way you think about your physical appearance... which isn't inherently a bad thing, but it's nice to hear someone talk about the value of education and personality. 💛
as a blonde person, I thought that the beauty standard was brown hair because everyone just makes jokes about blonde people and assume that they are dumb. and by the way, YOU are BEAUTIFUL.
I feel you girl. I think all haircolors are beautiful but the standard of beauty is dark hair because everyone here has blonde hair. And I'm stuck in between with my strawberry brownish hair that nobody likes
+A. Doutzen Dors i naturally have kind of darker ash blonde hair and i absolutely hate it. I'm going to dye it dark brown again in holidays. But about what area are you talking? Because where I live , blonde or light hair and light eyes are considered beautiful. Brown hair and dark eyes not.
The answer is simple - Yes Yes Yes! Not only from the outside, but u are beautiful from the inside too. You are person with beautiful heart and soul, not just appearance ♥♥♥
It's funny, because I subscribed to this channel because I was so in awe over how beautiful I thought you were. I watch your channel aspiring to be like you, and it's crazy to know that even the people you see as beautiful might not have always felt that way.
Here in India ,I still see the beauty construct that only white/pale skin is beautiful even though 80% of the whole of India is brown and black, I had the similar struggle of accepting that my brown skin was indeed beautiful and that I didn't need blue eyes instead of brown or dozens of creams (like fair and lovely) to try and change my skin. Love you so much for talking about this Diana!!
It's so funny because when I used to live in India I was praised for my pale skin. Now I live in Holland and people are like "why don't you ever go tanning?" Hahahah
And in predominantly white societies, we go to ridiculous lengths to tan our bodies. Self tanning is now a big thing, although its a pain in the ass to keep up and it destroys your clothes. We always want what we don't have
Your inner beauty is shown by your intelligence & strength. I love to see women like you who bring up other girls self esteem by opening up & showing your vulnerabilities. That's the first step to being truly beautiful; being real with yourself.
You are so amazing, inside and out. It really is comforting to hear someone so beautiful talk about struggling with their image. I've struggled with the way that I look pretty much all my life. I've been told I'm ugly simply because of my race and I've been taught that I'll never be beautiful because I can't have blonde hair or blue eyes or a model's body. But you're sending out the message that beauty is subjective and you can't let anyone tell you whether or not you're beautiful because it's YOU who has to tell yourself you're beautiful. You're a beautiful human being and I look up to you so much. Glad to know that I'm not alone in this cruel, vain, "beauty" obsessed society.
I have brown skin black hair and brown eyes, went to a predominantly white school and I didn't even recognize my heritage, physical appearance until kids would start pointing it out with jokes and racial comments. Now I'm starting to love my skin and feeling empowered as a WOC.
I also used to hate my hair and eyes too. I always felt like an alien at school for not having light skin or lighter hair and light eyes. I spent my whole childhood wishing I was white or trying to do soooo many skin whitening remedies, trying to dye my hair constantly picking things on my face then criticizing them to nothing and blaming everything on my race like why people didn't like me why boys didn't like me etc., but now I'm a proud POC/WOC.
You have an amazing soul... I'm so grateful to have discovered you. You're my favorite youtube ever. You deserve so much more views and subscribers: people need to hear your advices.
Thankfully I tend to think more logically than emotionally. I don't worry over petty things like "am I beautiful" because *beauty is objective*. If I think I'm ugly, that doesn't mean other people will also think I'm ugly. If I think I'm beautiful, that doesn't mean everyone will also think I'm beautiful. There will always be people who think you're pretty. Or ugly but that shouldn't bring you down, who cares. Most people think they're ugly because they compare themselves to photoshopped girls with caked on makeup. Stop comparing yourself. Sorry but, no, not everyone is physically beautiful.
You are one of the most beautiful examples of enhancing the outer beuty with the inner beauty. Your uniqueness and your effort to living your life the best for you in every way, gives me a lot of motivation and inspiration. Thank you for that, love you xx
I am from the philippines, and when my sister and I talk about who is the most beautiful woman we ever saw on the internet, we would always say "easyneon!!!" 100% TRUE
There is a huge difference between narcissists who think they can do no wrong and blame the world for their problems, and people who love to better themselves and lift others when they're up. You are such an inspiration. You're not perfect, but holy goodness, are you a wonderful human being. All your imperfections are beautiful. People are drawn to your unique beauty, and you go and teach them that you're kind and hardworking and smart and a work in progress. The youth of the world needs more people like you to look up to! I know you don't owe anyone anything, but I hope you continue to be a positive influence for many years. 💕
You made me cry.. I'm quite fat now.. And I want to be like you. Not in the way that I want to be pretty, thin and have RUclips 'fame' or whatever. But I want to be strong as you are.. And make myself change and get as happy and confident.. I want to be beautiful in that way..
I'm struggling with an ED at the moment and for the past 3 years and this is the most genuine thing I've ever Hurd. This really touched my heart thank you! ❤️
I started watching your videos because i thought you were gorgeous and I loved the way you incorporated bright colours into the make-up while still keeping it polished. Then I watched your weigh loss video and I started admiring you, because I've had the same struggle.After watching you for over a year, i could say that you are a wonderful, artistic and beautiful soul
When I feel like I'm surrounded by shallow, stupid people I love that listening to you makes me feel like I'm not alone in the way I think. There are mean people out there but not everyone is like that. If I knew you when I was living in Moldova I would've been friends with you no matter what you looked like...I think you're a beautiful person inside and out. I think beauty, even though it seems like there can only be one standard for it due to social media, it's extremely subjective and everyone has positives and negatives and no one is perfect, even people who pretend they are or people who are considered perfect by the media. I'm sorry for the hardships you went through as a result of your weight as a child and teenager...I can relate to your feelings of loneliness very well and I would wish I could play sports and things with other kids or do activities my friends were doing and with the things you said about your family sometimes pointing out your weight I was constantly treated differently because of my health problems by everyone including my family except I have physical problems that aren't fixable so I still struggle and always will. For me, it has of course been difficult to look past the struggles and to appreciate myself for all the positive traits I have but it is something that I always try my hardest because I know I can't give up and I'm so happy that you've found a healthy and happy way of life and you're comfortable in your skin because that is the most important thing ever. I hope you only have the best and kindest people around you who know to appreciate you for all your intelligence and kindness that you emanate.
THANK THANK YOU!!! I really needed this right now. I'm just learning to love and accept myself but I'm having a personal struggle right now. This really encouraged me to keep going and love myself more. THANK YOU!!!
Thank you so much for saying your story. I am going through a very similar situation at this point in my life. For years I have been struggling with the idea of being or not being "beautiful." Often times I think about this, followed by sadness- primarily because I do not feel beautiful, secondly because I feel sad that I think about it so much rather than making a difference in other people's lives. Unfortunately, an effect of feeling so "not-beautiful" is that I do not want to go outside or be with friends, I would rather stay indoors and (sadly) continue these destructive thoughts. Makeup and veganism are two things that have helped me a lot. Makeup gives me the confidence that I don't have, and is an art form that I can help express myself. For anyone dealing with or recovering from an eating disorder (something I dealt with for 6 years) veganism is the most amazing thing that I have ever had the gift of finding earlier this year. Although it has not made my life perfect, it has helped me love my body for how my body is. I've stopped weighing myself. I know I have gained weight, but I feeling "clean" because I am only consuming foods that are good for my body. Anyways, thank you so much. It is inspiring seeing someone go through the same thing and ultimately reach a healthy place of self-love and self-acceptance. I figured I could share a few physical ways that I have reached the better place that I am at today.
im also pale, very dark hair and brown eyes and its so great watching your makeup videos because i know what the makeup will look like with my features so thank you for being you c:
This is just like you are telling the stuff I am thinking! I personally dislike plastic surgery, beauty standarts! Being healthy and loving your body and appreciating it the way you are created, being comftable with yourself is the key to happiness with your body.
I thought that in this day of age, I was the only one having the philosophy you have (except for my friends, we have the same philosophy) and it's so relieving to see that people like you exist and deliver a message of self value and worth. Thank you for this video ❤️
It is so interesting to see a video like this from someone like you, as you are (and i seriously mean it) one of the prettiest women i have ever seen. looks fade, and truly are not that important. To really feel like that is true and to finally try to make peace with my appearance i had to become 27. It is so sad how we are wasting time hating ourselves and let our insecurities get in our way. Thanks a lot for sharing this.
It makes me feel better to hear all that. You're beautiful, inside and outside. I do stay in my room all day, lying in bed and eating everything I find because of depression. I also have those mornings where going to school is impossible because I don't feel confident enough to confront myself to others. Anyway, I'm glad you took the hard way to your own happiness. You're so interesting. Take care, love from France 💙🌸
I went trough the same thing when I was a teen. I was the ugly, chubby friend; I was depressed and all I did was stay in my room, on the computer and eat snikers and stuff like that. After I turned 18, I started to slim and I felt better and better. It was all just because I went trough puberty and its natural to gain weight in that period. I guess my body is supposed to be thin, because my parents and all my family tree members are thin people. I helped the slimming with eating healthy and exercising. Now I'm a 23 year old beautiful creature. Thanks for the vid! It'll help a lot of people, I hope!
Closed captioning please! Oh my goodness, you have no idea how much it would mean to me if you added closed captioning. I'm your deaf subscriber. I absolutely love you! It'll also be so nice to be able to know what you said in this video.
Ocean Tavera she's talking about the struggles she had with her body image in high school. She never felt beautiful because she wasn't tanned, blonde, or thin at the time. She has grown past this and believes now that beauty of the soul is much more important than physical beauty. She suggests to invest in one's education and personality because youth and beauty will disappear anyway. Hope this helps at least a little!
I've been intensely working for over 2 months and I have lost over a stone. Yesterday I came across your channel and I saw many of your videos including the one about your weight loss journey. I honestly feel like you're a friend I can go to every time I feel down during this tedious process of being a better person both inside and out. You've reminded me all over of why I decided to lose weight in the first place. Diana, thank you so much for inspiring me.
I need to start following your footsteps,how was your life before,is totally mine now,the exact same thing,my family says 'oh I love your eyes,your hair,but if you loose weight you would look better,if you loose weight you would have a boyfriend and the list goes on,and it's really my fault,I need to stop procrastinating and do something for ME to feel confident and good about myself,I don't like to go out,never,I'm always in my house,THIS IS A REALLY GOOD MOTIVATION FOR ME DIANA,I'm thankful for you,wish me look beautiful,I love you.
I'm quite pretty, I think, and very healthy. Overall I'm happy with myself. I also feel, though, that I'm ugly sometimes. And I am perfectly okay with that. My beauty is completely irrelevant. It makes no difference whatsoever in who I am. It's also very freeing to be ugly and not care. That's part of why I like going to the gym- I'm sweaty and disgusting and don't care in the least how I look. And then sometimes I look fine as hell, and that's cool too.
I love you and you are so Beautiful, I am so ugly in my family and if someone ignore you or hurt you with lame excuse like ugly, then that are mad people they have nothing to do anything and maybe someone envious with you, When I was a Kid One girl called me, and said to me I am so ugly and she said never talk to me, I don't release as I was kid but now I think sometimes, And I don't see that type of people who likes face or skin beauty. You are so Beautiful as I am saying not only your eyes but also inner self. I want to see you happy always
I always thought (since I discovered you) that you are a smart and a well-spoken person. I also appreciated the fact that you mentioned education etc. It was like I had a real conversation with a REAL person, and I thank you for that. Your outside is as beautiful as your inside.
I never asked myself if I'm beautiful. I often think that I'm not pretty or not pretty enough. This was me in my late teenage years. I'm so insecure and conscious w/ my body. But as u grow older you would realize that u can do something about yourself which is, if u start loving yourself and embrace your skin and body you'll feel better. You can choose to be happy and you'll feel contented. What others think doesn't even matter. It's your life and these negative people must not affect you or try not to be affected. Do what u desires. it's your life. Love it.
Listening to you felt like you were reading my teenage story. Totally described the the things that happened to me and the way i felt all the time. Now, after I took care of myself and spent time investing in the things that I love and that are important to me I feel a lot more beautiful. I still have some issues and I feel insecure about some things of my body, like my skin, but I hope that it will become better. I agree with everything you said in the video, thank you for sharing!
Thank you Diana 💙 i went out with my friends yesterday and since it was a weekend there were a lot of people around i felt very insecure about my looks my height my clothes..but this video made me feel better thank you
honestly your talks (this one and previous ones) are so convincing and inspiring especially because i feel like you apply everything you say, thats why it feels genuine and trustful
I don't ever comment on RUclips videos but this one was too relatable. This was so beautifully put and I'm so glad you came to realise that it's all about the inner beauty which lasts (although you are beautiful on the outside too). Everything happens for a reason and all of that crap you went through made you have that beautiful soul. You should make more videos like this because it makes me feel like I'm actually sitting there with you and it's really engaging. This video was really interesting throughout so dw about it!
I think Garu's life is perfect the way it is! Haha, you have inspired me so much. I am 22 years old and ever since I was 6 years old I have been having weight issues, getting over weight year by year, bigger and bigger the next grade that I move up in. I became self conscious in everything I wore and just wore all black and long sleeve everything just to hide my fat. My family would say rude things about my weight like when I was your age I was much much skinnier and things like that. That made me feel even worse and I only ate more and more just because the food tasted amazing and I wanted more of it. I started to work out at the age of 18 and began to see progress and changed the way that I ate and noticed a tremendous difference. I am happy at where I am now but I am not finished yet and so I will continue to better myself to become the healthiest I can be! Your videos inspire me so much, thank you Diana.
Thank you so much for sharing this video, I used to hate my self because I considered that I wasn't beautiful. I'm the opposite of the beauty standards of my country and I'm overweighted but lately I have learnt that everyone is beautiful in their own way and started loving my self and accepting my appearance. Love you 😘
What I learned, is self confidence makes girls pretty. Not being beautyfull at the outside, this can get boring in a few seconds if the person looking pretty isn't confidentwith her self. Thank you for this awesome video, and giving this great advice to younger girls. I really needet this when I was like 16 and no one told me ;)
I spent this morning crying in my bed, I was so tired of the way that I look, after that I fell asleep. I just woke up just a few minutes ago and this was one of the first videos that appeared in my RUclips feed, I felt like I was meant to watched it. I was scared to at first but after I kept watching this I was honestly moved. I relate to so many issues on how you felt about yourself and it honestly reminded me that I'm not alone when it comes to things like this. This morning I literally did not want to go out because I felt so ashamed of how I look and I've just been cutting myself off from everything. This video gave me inspiration, hopefully I'll be able to stick to my healthy food choices and exercises. Thank you and btw I've always thought that your voice was lovely btw and that your beauty was otherworldly. You are a wonderful soul and a beautiful woman, namaste.
You explained so much that I have felt my entire life.. I have dealt with so many similar things that you have.. Thank you for understanding and speaking about how it feels. I am so happy you are healthy & happy & more loving to yourself everyday. That is true self love, like you said. Affirmations really help me. I have about 8 different sticky notes saying things from "I am at peace" "I value self-care & health, I love my body" & 'I am beautiful, healthy, happy, grateful & loved" etc.. Great video Diana, have a lovely spring & summer darling! & Ahh yes the simple life of dogs and kitties lol, we must learn from their care-free lifestyle!
i think i really needed this. i'm trying to love myself and take care of myself more before school starts up again in august. this past year i discovered i had a bunch of health problems, and that caused my grades to drop, and i want to bring them back up in the upcoming year. i feel that everything you said in this video is true, except i think that if you truly believe that plastic surgery will make you love yourself more, then go ahead! thank you for always making quality, inspiring content.
whenever Im watching your videos I'm always thinking about how beautiful you are. the fact that you used to think of yourself as not beautiful made my heart ache. you are gorgeous inside and out. you have a really pretty face and your personality makes you flawless. I'm so glad that you realized all of this. I love you💜
I love the way you speak Diana! you are saying here some really interesting things. Sometimes i'm not sure if it's just media that influences us, I think it's more the community. In Eastern Europe teenaged girls are (were? hope so) pressured to be very..i don't know ..sexy? from 13-14 years ..which looking back it's insane. Also, the definition of "healthy weight" is usually quite thin and not at all strong. :(
Thank you, honey for this beautiful video and for you sincerity... My "problem" was that I always have been very thin and never loved how I look, my skin, my chubby cheeks, my eyes, evrything. I never felt beautiful being a teenager and was trying all the time to "dissapear", to don't take risks, also with boys cause I anticipated their rejection and I avoided situations where I could be judged. For example conversation with girls about "the new crush". Now that I grew up, I'm 22 years old, I'm still thin with less chuby cheeks lol, I feel better. I still have my insecurities but I feel better. I learned to appreciate my singularity, I learned to accept that I'm not going to please to everyone and that's okay. I learned to stop focusing on my bad experiences and remind myself that I had some good ones too. Every day I'm learning more about my self and I'm not going to lie to you, somedays I'm still being depressed about all this stuff, but it no longer takes all my time and mind.
Thanks for addressing this sensitive issue and for sharing your feelings and story. For me, I don't feel confident in 'me' at all, even if I hear compliments I don't really listen, but on the other hand take all rubbish seriously Still Trying to love 'me'...
I completely relate to you in the sense that we think the same. I struggled with the idea of beauty and where I fit into the standards from a very young age, and it wasn't until I graduated from high school and removed all of the toxic people in my life, that I started my journey towards self-love. Education is such an important part of my life and I totally agree with your point that our personality and knowledge stays with us throughout our lives, and youth and beauty are only temporary. I feel like I could go on forever, but I just wanted to say that I really loved this video and love hearing your thoughts on given aspects of life. I really like these kinds of videos, you speak very eloquently. Have a great day!xx
Not even two minutes in and I'm crying. Just that you thought you were ugly. And then foods was your comfort. I feel you. And your friends always only saying your eyes are beautiful but nothing else. People used to always only say I had pretty hair and face but clearly my body was ugly. Fat. Can so relate. And I don't know you, though I've seen all your videos, but I am still so proud of you. Not just for losing your weight. But for saying these things. You don't have to and still you do. You are very strong! Wish I could give you a hug. Wish I could have known you back when we were both bigger. Then we would have had each other. :) but you did it anyway. So did I. It's beautiful that you loved yourself enough to take care of yourself instead of staying in a depressing state of mind etc. you're a true fighter.
You're so lovely! I also think all the things you said, and i keep dealing with really low self-esteem. Back in the year i really hated myself, my face, my dark hair and my pale skin. The only thing i liked about myself was my body, cause i was really thin. Now i love my face, i really like to put on my make up and it really helped me to feel prettier. The ironic thing is that now i don't like my body, i became more inactive, and my depression issue is really more clear. I always think i don't deserve other people love. So i seek it and avoid that at the same time. It's really hurtful and i agree with you: the only thing that make you feel really beautiful is loving yourself and caring for yourself. I think it's the hardest thing in life, so i hope one day i'll be able. Thank you for the video! :)
Diana, I have followed you for a long while, and the reasons were so many more than the beauty that you exude. You have a calm about you, an inner light that is so bright. You are truly beautiful inside AND out.
u don't know how much this video inspired me. I've always been very self conscious of myself especially out of middle school and just watching this video made me feel at peace with my beauty for once. ilysm thank you😘
I'm literally crying right now :( You're the most amazing person I've got to know and listen to. Thank you very much I really appreciate your being, personality and 'beauty'. Your whole existence is undescribable! And I do not accept that there are people who don't like your talking! Thank you, thank you... I love you
This is so beautiful. You are so beautiful inside and out and I would have never thought you ever doubted your beauty. Every word you said resonated with me because I experienced the exact same thing a year ago and I thought I was alone. Thank you for making this!! It will impact so many people!!
I don't comment on RUclips videos often but I truly believe you are truly one of the most beautiful people in this world. Not only are you absolutely stunning on the outside, but unlike many other gorgeous girls online there is a beautiful soul underneath who has been through the same body struggles as anyone else. You're truly an inspiration to me and hopefully to many younger people watching your videos and I can only hope to find your level of peace and serenity and self love in my life. Thank you so much for being who you are Diana. Xx
you are a beautiful soul, i love your makeup tutorials and your story inspires me. you speak so calmly and you sound so peaceful and it makes me feel good to see someone be able to see so clearly about some hardships that were so cloudy and dark at one point. thank you for sharing this ❤️
I can identify so much with this! about 2-3 years ago I was very depressed so I like you tended to eat a lot, it made me forget the problems. People would tell me, but it just hurt to be told I didn't want to face the problems. Nowadays I have realized and come to terms with my problems I still don't exercise, but I've definitely gone down in weight just because i started eating normally. I think it's really about coming to terms with yourself and trying to understand what is actually happening that helps you. Beautiful video Diana!
Thank you for sharing this, Diana. It certainly has helped me and I'm very glad we have people like you on RUclips. Please do more videos like this, your wisdom is so beneficial to us all :)
This is so appreciated, thank you so much for this video. i agree with you a 1000%, iv been dealing with self love for so long that iv only realized in the last few days what you are saying now, how true self love, true beauty comes from your inner self. Embrace your flaws, your insecurities, love what you love everyday and do what makes you happy! thank you for posting this, such a important video, wished every youtube brought more awareness to this subject. love ur accent and u
I normally don't care for this type of videos but this one really got to me. You're confident, yet self-aware and with your feet on the ground and that is very, very rare. This was really inspiring, thank you so much for making it xx
Your looks are what people around me love ! , dark silky hair , fair skin and a little bit more on the heavy said . It's so interesting to see the different perspectives in each and every place
It makes me so happy to see a beauty guru who is also a real person and not just a pretty mask Thank you so much Diana, you're always source of inspiration, and especially now that i'm trying to be a "better version of me" you're really helping me :)
Its probably impossible to think that we are look perfect because the green is always greener on the other side, so I always believe that we should be just embrace our flaws and improve on it rather than trying to change it. Our face and body are ONLY thing that we got till the day we die. We can't wake up one day looking like Angelina Jolie, that's impossible, so why even think about looking like someone else? Never try to be like someone, but try to improve who you already are. Be it mentality or physically. If it is something that you can't change, well then just fuck it and learn to rock it.
I love the way you speak so freely and what you have to say about the topic of self-love and your opinion on all things beauty, like one thing I always think about is how you said people should focus more on contouring/highlighting the inside and not just the outside. Anyway, such a fan of your videos!! Sending lots of love from the US xx. ❤️
You are an incredibly beautiful person, both inside and out. It is amazing to me that people only ever saw your weight and completely disregarded how stunning you are - both in your physical qualities and your personality. Whenever I watch your videos I think 'gosh, I'll never be as pretty as her' but from your words I realise that physical beauty is subject to opinion and more importantly to personality. And it only goes so deep. If you're lovely within, you'll be lovely without too. Thank you for teaching me x
From the first time i saw Diana's video, i thought she's soo pretty, talented ...you re so kind, polite , modest ...you are a special beauty youtuber. You re not showy and you dont have that sense " i am the only one girl in this world" . You give me a motivation with this video to start love, trust and work for myself! I LOVE YOU DIANA! You re my favourite❤
I am brazilian and I watch you today for the first time and you are one of the most beautiful woman I ever seen, I loved your makeups tutorials, you are so talented and with and without makeup you look amazing!! The standart of society goes to screw up a lot of people that have potencial, doesn't care about it!
We've all heard the saying, ' Beauty is in the eye of the beholder ', and it is true. You said something profound, about the difference between inner and outer beauty. Going by your story, you made a wonderful transformation in confidence and the beauty within as well as on the outward appearance. Your story is inspiring to many who are struggling and need encouragement. btw, I like your accent when you speak.
This is a much needed video... thank you, Diana. I think we all struggle with self-love and acceptance everyday, there are days when we feel okay, and other times all we see are our flaws and try to be somebody else that we might look up to to fill that void. This was encouraging and inspiring to watch. Much love from Brunei xx
you're truly such a beautiful human on the outside and insidd 💕 beauty is has no definition. don't be blinded negatively by other people on the internet who portray a certain image (they can control what they release to you and what they don't want to share)
Well you've definitely helped me! I think you're very inspirational ❤️ these days it's hard to find someone who speaks sense & isn't sucked into believing you should be like everyone else. I hope to gain even half of the maturity you have! Lots of love x
I was so surprised seeing this video, because when I first saw your videos, the first thing that thought was "Oh my God, she is so beautiful." like real goals. I love it. Thank you
I've been subscribed to you for a while now and I haven't watched RUclips videos in a while as well so I haven't seen some of your videos but I just wanted to say thank you for this. I'm glad that I watched this video today because it has given me more motivation to become more healthy. I was on track to keep loosing weight last year but gave up because it was exhausting and I didn't have motivation. But now I want to drop all those kg that I have gained since last year and more to be more healthy. I know that is a hard long process but because of your video and my wanting of self love and just to be healthy I will push through this. Thank you so much. You have such a beautiful soul. Thank you. ❤️
I'm really proud of you for making this video. You help a lot of young girls with this, including me. I was always very jealous of your beauty (I know, very superficial, but hey, I'm human too) but today you've showed me your inner beauty. I'm not jealous of you anymore. I look up to you! It probably must have taken a lot of courage to post a personal video like this. I know you're a strong girl and even know I don't know you, I'm very proud of you
I feel like you're a big influence to me. Every time you talk about you, I feel identified some how. And, for some reason, I've been feeling quite down, depressed and feeling bad about how I look. I was asking my self if I was beautiful. And then, you make this video and I feel like you were talking to me, like giving me advice and now feel so much better. I don't know how to explain it.
You are so beautiful! I had the exact same problems as you did and just recently did I start seeing myself as I really am and started thinking that I'm beautiful like all my thin friends! I still have bad days but I'm working on it! I realised that I need to work on my self for me and not to be accepted by others!!! thank you for this video! You're amazing! I love you!
This is the first time that I have came across one of your videos, but I can list hundreds of things that makes you beautiful. but in the end of the day what I think or anyone else thinks doesn't matter what really matters is what YOU THINK. I just wanted to say I'm proud of you that you spoke about this out loud , I know it takes alot of courage to do what you've done.💓💓💓💓💓

I was crying while watching this video, that's totally me .. Thank you so much Diana 💜
💙
this is so true. I hated being african american, because I live in an area where I don't see women like me. I wanted to be lighter-skinned and have long flowing hair and that if I had those things my life would be better. Now that I'm older I see that I have my own kind of beauty, and that's more precious than any standard or measuring stick I could be put up against. It's hard sometimes, but I'm happier this way than I ever was when I wanted to be something I wasn't.
😶💙
5 minutes in and I'm SOBBING. What a wonderful video. So much truth and important thoughts
aw dodie
🤗😘😘
Girl you are a classic beauty. Dark hair and pale skin will never go out of style. Trends come and go. Also I love how you speak of your personality/soul, because let me tell you even though you are beautiful on the outside I always sense your inner presence that makes you very beautiful. I'm glad you brought it up. Our real beauty comes from the inside.
I'm so insecure about my weight and my looks, I struggle to buy new clothes because I know they won't look good on me. I haven't gone out with my friends for nearly 2 months, the only time I leave the house is to go to my classes...
+Min Yoongi Jinius please please pleaseee don't do that to yourself!Try to change your mindset..Do it for you not for others.The years will go away and you'll be like where did my life go?I know confidence is something that we all struggle with.Try to aknowledge what you love about you!
+MsKelly L but it's so hard though :'(
+Min Yoongi Jinius No. Don't. The new clothes won't look good on you ? Who has the right to say that ? Go out. Have fun. The look people will give you - if they're actually looking because believe me, most of the time they're not - doesn't matter at the end of the day. It'll all fade away. The only thing that actually matters is you.
+TichinaSalem thank you ❤
Same here
You will always be one of my favorite girls on RUclips. You're so intelligent and unique in a sea of "beauty gurus". Love you Diana 💕💕
I'm so intrigued by her Bc she speaks multiple languages. So lovely
agree :) classy and clever. finally something that is worth watching.
i've never heard a beauty guru say anything like "invest in your education," and to tell people to work to improve their personality & their inside. you almost always hear things about how to improve the way you think about your physical appearance... which isn't inherently a bad thing, but it's nice to hear someone talk about the value of education and personality. 💛
as a blonde person, I thought that the beauty standard was brown hair because everyone just makes jokes about blonde people and assume that they are dumb.
and by the way, YOU are BEAUTIFUL.
In Europe and Latin America that is like the number one standard which is sad! Every hair type/color is beautiful :)
I feel you girl. I think all haircolors are beautiful but the standard of beauty is dark hair because everyone here has blonde hair. And I'm stuck in between with my strawberry brownish hair that nobody likes
+A. Doutzen Dors i naturally have kind of darker ash blonde hair and i absolutely hate it. I'm going to dye it dark brown again in holidays. But about what area are you talking? Because where I live , blonde or light hair and light eyes are considered beautiful. Brown hair and dark eyes not.
The answer is simple - Yes Yes Yes! Not only from the outside, but u are beautiful from the inside too. You are person with beautiful heart and soul, not just appearance ♥♥♥
Diana, you are so admirable! The most beautiful person inside and out 💕
It's funny, because I subscribed to this channel because I was so in awe over how beautiful I thought you were. I watch your channel aspiring to be like you, and it's crazy to know that even the people you see as beautiful might not have always felt that way.
Here in India ,I still see the beauty construct that only white/pale skin is beautiful even though 80% of the whole of India is brown and black, I had the similar struggle of accepting that my brown skin was indeed beautiful and that I didn't need blue eyes instead of brown or dozens of creams (like fair and lovely) to try and change my skin.
Love you so much for talking about this Diana!!
It's so funny because when I used to live in India I was praised for my pale skin. Now I live in Holland and people are like "why don't you ever go tanning?" Hahahah
+A. Ikr beauty is just a construct of beliefs ,everyone should for once think about this
And in predominantly white societies, we go to ridiculous lengths to tan our bodies. Self tanning is now a big thing, although its a pain in the ass to keep up and it destroys your clothes. We always want what we don't have
Jazzy the brown skin is soo beautiful to be honest. I'm not brown but I like the brown skin of the Indian people. :)
I loove the way you speak!
Me toooo its so soothing
Yes, that's true!
This video is so important. Thank you for staying down to earth xx
Your inner beauty is shown by your intelligence & strength.
I love to see women like you who bring up other girls self esteem by opening up & showing your vulnerabilities. That's the first step to being truly beautiful; being real with yourself.
You are so amazing, inside and out. It really is comforting to hear someone so beautiful talk about struggling with their image. I've struggled with the way that I look pretty much all my life. I've been told I'm ugly simply because of my race and I've been taught that I'll never be beautiful because I can't have blonde hair or blue eyes or a model's body. But you're sending out the message that beauty is subjective and you can't let anyone tell you whether or not you're beautiful because it's YOU who has to tell yourself you're beautiful. You're a beautiful human being and I look up to you so much. Glad to know that I'm not alone in this cruel, vain, "beauty" obsessed society.
You're so beautiful inside and out Diana, you always inspire me to be a better person, and to love me how I am.
💙
I have brown skin black hair and brown eyes, went to a predominantly white school and I didn't even recognize my heritage, physical appearance until kids would start pointing it out with jokes and racial comments. Now I'm starting to love my skin and feeling empowered as a WOC.
I also used to hate my hair and eyes too. I always felt like an alien at school for not having light skin or lighter hair and light eyes. I spent my whole childhood wishing I was white or trying to do soooo many skin whitening remedies, trying to dye my hair constantly picking things on my face then criticizing them to nothing and blaming everything on my race like why people didn't like me why boys didn't like me etc., but now I'm a proud POC/WOC.
😔💙
You have an amazing soul... I'm so grateful to have discovered you.
You're my favorite youtube ever.
You deserve so much more views and subscribers: people need to hear your advices.
Thankfully I tend to think more logically than emotionally. I don't worry over petty things like "am I beautiful" because *beauty is objective*. If I think I'm ugly, that doesn't mean other people will also think I'm ugly. If I think I'm beautiful, that doesn't mean everyone will also think I'm beautiful. There will always be people who think you're pretty. Or ugly but that shouldn't bring you down, who cares. Most people think they're ugly because they compare themselves to photoshopped girls with caked on makeup. Stop comparing yourself. Sorry but, no, not everyone is physically beautiful.
You are one of the most beautiful examples of enhancing the outer beuty with the inner beauty. Your uniqueness and your effort to living your life the best for you in every way, gives me a lot of motivation and inspiration. Thank you for that, love you xx
💙
I am from the philippines, and when my sister and I talk about who is the most beautiful woman we ever saw on the internet, we would always say "easyneon!!!"
100% TRUE
There is a huge difference between narcissists who think they can do no wrong and blame the world for their problems, and people who love to better themselves and lift others when they're up.
You are such an inspiration. You're not perfect, but holy goodness, are you a wonderful human being. All your imperfections are beautiful. People are drawn to your unique beauty, and you go and teach them that you're kind and hardworking and smart and a work in progress. The youth of the world needs more people like you to look up to! I know you don't owe anyone anything, but I hope you continue to be a positive influence for many years.
💕
You made me cry.. I'm quite fat now.. And I want to be like you. Not in the way that I want to be pretty, thin and have RUclips 'fame' or whatever. But I want to be strong as you are.. And make myself change and get as happy and confident.. I want to be beautiful in that way..
you will be stronger because you understand that there is a problem and you want to change💙
+easyNeon thank you.. If I get to a point when I'm really happy.. I will sneak a comment somewhere around here :) you are awesome
I'm struggling with an ED at the moment and for the past 3 years and this is the most genuine thing I've ever Hurd. This really touched my heart thank you! ❤️
I started watching your videos because i thought you were gorgeous and I loved the way you incorporated bright colours into the make-up while still keeping it polished. Then I watched your weigh loss video and I started admiring you, because I've had the same struggle.After watching you for over a year, i could say that you are a wonderful, artistic and beautiful soul
When I feel like I'm surrounded by shallow, stupid people I love that listening to you makes me feel like I'm not alone in the way I think. There are mean people out there but not everyone is like that. If I knew you when I was living in Moldova I would've been friends with you no matter what you looked like...I think you're a beautiful person inside and out. I think beauty, even though it seems like there can only be one standard for it due to social media, it's extremely subjective and everyone has positives and negatives and no one is perfect, even people who pretend they are or people who are considered perfect by the media. I'm sorry for the hardships you went through as a result of your weight as a child and teenager...I can relate to your feelings of loneliness very well and I would wish I could play sports and things with other kids or do activities my friends were doing and with the things you said about your family sometimes pointing out your weight I was constantly treated differently because of my health problems by everyone including my family except I have physical problems that aren't fixable so I still struggle and always will. For me, it has of course been difficult to look past the struggles and to appreciate myself for all the positive traits I have but it is something that I always try my hardest because I know I can't give up and I'm so happy that you've found a healthy and happy way of life and you're comfortable in your skin because that is the most important thing ever. I hope you only have the best and kindest people around you who know to appreciate you for all your intelligence and kindness that you emanate.
💙
THANK THANK YOU!!! I really needed this right now. I'm just learning to love and accept myself but I'm having a personal struggle right now. This really encouraged me to keep going and love myself more. THANK YOU!!!
💙
what you have to say about seeing beauty in everyone is so inspiring, and truthful. thank you for sharing your beauty with us. wow I'm so blown away.
😙😶
Thank you I really needed that. One time I did love all of myself and I felt so confident and I've lost it. It's a continuous cycle.
Thank you so much for saying your story. I am going through a very similar situation at this point in my life. For years I have been struggling with the idea of being or not being "beautiful." Often times I think about this, followed by sadness- primarily because I do not feel beautiful, secondly because I feel sad that I think about it so much rather than making a difference in other people's lives. Unfortunately, an effect of feeling so "not-beautiful" is that I do not want to go outside or be with friends, I would rather stay indoors and (sadly) continue these destructive thoughts. Makeup and veganism are two things that have helped me a lot. Makeup gives me the confidence that I don't have, and is an art form that I can help express myself. For anyone dealing with or recovering from an eating disorder (something I dealt with for 6 years) veganism is the most amazing thing that I have ever had the gift of finding earlier this year. Although it has not made my life perfect, it has helped me love my body for how my body is. I've stopped weighing myself. I know I have gained weight, but I feeling "clean" because I am only consuming foods that are good for my body. Anyways, thank you so much. It is inspiring seeing someone go through the same thing and ultimately reach a healthy place of self-love and self-acceptance. I figured I could share a few physical ways that I have reached the better place that I am at today.
Now she's hotter than the people that called her ugly
im also pale, very dark hair and brown eyes and its so great watching your makeup videos because i know what the makeup will look like with my features so thank you for being you c:
This is just like you are telling the stuff I am thinking! I personally dislike plastic surgery, beauty standarts! Being healthy and loving your body and appreciating it the way you are created, being comftable with yourself is the key to happiness with your body.
I thought that in this day of age, I was the only one having the philosophy you have (except for my friends, we have the same philosophy) and it's so relieving to see that people like you exist and deliver a message of self value and worth. Thank you for this video ❤️
It is so interesting to see a video like this from someone like you, as you are (and i seriously mean it) one of the prettiest women i have ever seen. looks fade, and truly are not that important. To really feel like that is true and to finally try to make peace with my appearance i had to become 27. It is so sad how we are wasting time hating ourselves and let our insecurities get in our way. Thanks a lot for sharing this.
indeed,it is sad😶😙
It makes me feel better to hear all that. You're beautiful, inside and outside. I do stay in my room all day, lying in bed and eating everything I find because of depression. I also have those mornings where going to school is impossible because I don't feel confident enough to confront myself to others. Anyway, I'm glad you took the hard way to your own happiness. You're so interesting. Take care, love from France 💙🌸
I went trough the same thing when I was a teen.
I was the ugly, chubby friend; I was depressed and all I did was stay in my room, on the computer and eat snikers and stuff like that.
After I turned 18, I started to slim and I felt better and better. It was all just because I went trough puberty and its natural to gain weight in that period. I guess my body is supposed to be thin, because my parents and all my family tree members are thin people. I helped the slimming with eating healthy and exercising.
Now I'm a 23 year old beautiful creature.
Thanks for the vid! It'll help a lot of people, I hope!
Closed captioning please! Oh my goodness, you have no idea how much it would mean to me if you added closed captioning. I'm your deaf subscriber. I absolutely love you! It'll also be so nice to be able to know what you said in this video.
Ocean Tavera she's talking about the struggles she had with her body image in high school. She never felt beautiful because she wasn't tanned, blonde, or thin at the time. She has grown past this and believes now that beauty of the soul is much more important than physical beauty. She suggests to invest in one's education and personality because youth and beauty will disappear anyway. Hope this helps at least a little!
I've been intensely working for over 2 months and I have lost over a stone. Yesterday I came across your channel and I saw many of your videos including the one about your weight loss journey. I honestly feel like you're a friend I can go to every time I feel down during this tedious process of being a better person both inside and out. You've reminded me all over of why I decided to lose weight in the first place. Diana, thank you so much for inspiring me.
Be careful. That much weight loss over such a short time is often unhealthy and unsustainable.
I need to start following your footsteps,how was your life before,is totally mine now,the exact same thing,my family says 'oh I love your eyes,your hair,but if you loose weight you would look better,if you loose weight you would have a boyfriend and the list goes on,and it's really my fault,I need to stop procrastinating and do something for ME to feel confident and good about myself,I don't like to go out,never,I'm always in my house,THIS IS A REALLY GOOD MOTIVATION FOR ME DIANA,I'm thankful for you,wish me look beautiful,I love you.
Luck*
good luckk ♡
I'm quite pretty, I think, and very healthy. Overall I'm happy with myself. I also feel, though, that I'm ugly sometimes. And I am perfectly okay with that. My beauty is completely irrelevant. It makes no difference whatsoever in who I am. It's also very freeing to be ugly and not care. That's part of why I like going to the gym- I'm sweaty and disgusting and don't care in the least how I look. And then sometimes I look fine as hell, and that's cool too.
I totally agree, the moment I stopped caring about how "beautiful" or "pretty" I looked was the moment I finally could relax and enjoy myself.
I love you and you are so Beautiful, I am so ugly in my family and if someone ignore you or hurt you with lame excuse like ugly, then that are mad people they have nothing to do anything and maybe someone envious with you,
When I was a Kid One girl called me, and said to me I am so ugly and she said never talk to me, I don't release as I was kid but now I think sometimes, And I don't see that type of people who likes face or skin beauty. You are so Beautiful as I am saying not only your eyes but also inner self. I want to see you happy always
I always thought (since I discovered you) that you are a smart and a well-spoken person. I also appreciated the fact that you mentioned education etc. It was like I had a real conversation with a REAL person, and I thank you for that. Your outside is as beautiful as your inside.
WAO! 💘 it's like listening to the equivalent of a hug that calms all these anxious thoughts to all of us with self-esteem issues! Thank you Diana 😚👌🏼
I never asked myself if I'm beautiful. I often think that I'm not pretty or not pretty enough. This was me in my late teenage years. I'm so insecure and conscious w/ my body. But as u grow older you would realize that u can do something about yourself which is, if u start loving yourself and embrace your skin and body you'll feel better. You can choose to be happy and you'll feel contented. What others think doesn't even matter. It's your life and these negative people must not affect you or try not to be affected. Do what u desires. it's your life. Love it.
Listening to you felt like you were reading my teenage story. Totally described the the things that happened to me and the way i felt all the time. Now, after I took care of myself and spent time investing in the things that I love and that are important to me I feel a lot more beautiful. I still have some issues and I feel insecure about some things of my body, like my skin, but I hope that it will become better.
I agree with everything you said in the video, thank you for sharing!
Thank you Diana 💙 i went out with my friends yesterday and since it was a weekend there were a lot of people around i felt very insecure about my looks my height my clothes..but this video made me feel better thank you
honestly your talks (this one and previous ones) are so convincing and inspiring especially because i feel like you apply everything you say, thats why it feels genuine and trustful
I don't ever comment on RUclips videos but this one was too relatable. This was so beautifully put and I'm so glad you came to realise that it's all about the inner beauty which lasts (although you are beautiful on the outside too). Everything happens for a reason and all of that crap you went through made you have that beautiful soul. You should make more videos like this because it makes me feel like I'm actually sitting there with you and it's really engaging. This video was really interesting throughout so dw about it!
I think Garu's life is perfect the way it is! Haha, you have inspired me so much. I am 22 years old and ever since I was 6 years old I have been having weight issues, getting over weight year by year, bigger and bigger the next grade that I move up in. I became self conscious in everything I wore and just wore all black and long sleeve everything just to hide my fat. My family would say rude things about my weight like when I was your age I was much much skinnier and things like that. That made me feel even worse and I only ate more and more just because the food tasted amazing and I wanted more of it. I started to work out at the age of 18 and began to see progress and changed the way that I ate and noticed a tremendous difference. I am happy at where I am now but I am not finished yet and so I will continue to better myself to become the healthiest I can be! Your videos inspire me so much, thank you Diana.
💙
Thank you so much for sharing this video, I used to hate my self because I considered that I wasn't beautiful. I'm the opposite of the beauty standards of my country and I'm overweighted but lately I have learnt that everyone is beautiful in their own way and started loving my self and accepting my appearance. Love you 😘
What I learned, is self confidence makes girls pretty. Not being beautyfull at the outside, this can get boring in a few seconds if the person looking pretty isn't confidentwith her self.
Thank you for this awesome video, and giving this great advice to younger girls. I really needet this when I was like 16 and no one told me ;)
I spent this morning crying in my bed, I was so tired of the way that I look, after that I fell asleep. I just woke up just a few minutes ago and this was one of the first videos that appeared in my RUclips feed, I felt like I was meant to watched it. I was scared to at first but after I kept watching this I was honestly moved. I relate to so many issues on how you felt about yourself and it honestly reminded me that I'm not alone when it comes to things like this. This morning I literally did not want to go out because I felt so ashamed of how I look and I've just been cutting myself off from everything. This video gave me inspiration, hopefully I'll be able to stick to my healthy food choices and exercises. Thank you and btw I've always thought that your voice was lovely btw and that your beauty was otherworldly. You are a wonderful soul and a beautiful woman, namaste.
💙 there is always a positive part- we have these obstacles to learn how to be stronger and to learn how are the people/the world around us.
You explained so much that I have felt my entire life.. I have dealt with so many similar things that you have.. Thank you for understanding and speaking about how it feels. I am so happy you are healthy & happy & more loving to yourself everyday. That is true self love, like you said. Affirmations really help me. I have about 8 different sticky notes saying things from "I am at peace" "I value self-care & health, I love my body" & 'I am beautiful, healthy, happy, grateful & loved" etc.. Great video Diana, have a lovely spring & summer darling! & Ahh yes the simple life of dogs and kitties lol, we must learn from their care-free lifestyle!
i think i really needed this. i'm trying to love myself and take care of myself more before school starts up again in august. this past year i discovered i had a bunch of health problems, and that caused my grades to drop, and i want to bring them back up in the upcoming year. i feel that everything you said in this video is true, except i think that if you truly believe that plastic surgery will make you love yourself more, then go ahead! thank you for always making quality, inspiring content.
whenever Im watching your videos I'm always thinking about how beautiful you are. the fact that you used to think of yourself as not beautiful made my heart ache. you are gorgeous inside and out. you have a really pretty face and your personality makes you flawless. I'm so glad that you realized all of this. I love you💜
You're so insightful and inspirational! You should have these sit down talk videos more often!
thank you Rachel x
I love the way you speak Diana! you are saying here some really interesting things. Sometimes i'm not sure if it's just media that influences us, I think it's more the community. In Eastern Europe teenaged girls are (were? hope so) pressured to be very..i don't know ..sexy? from 13-14 years ..which looking back it's insane. Also, the definition of "healthy weight" is usually quite thin and not at all strong. :(
I resonate with so many things you say in your "talking" videos. You are a true inspiration for me, I really admire you as a person.
Thank you, honey for this beautiful video and for you sincerity...
My "problem" was that I always have been very thin and never loved how I look, my skin, my chubby cheeks, my eyes, evrything. I never felt beautiful being a teenager and was trying all the time to "dissapear", to don't take risks, also with boys cause I anticipated their rejection and I avoided situations where I could be judged. For example conversation with girls about "the new crush".
Now that I grew up, I'm 22 years old, I'm still thin with less chuby cheeks lol, I feel better. I still have my insecurities but I feel better. I learned to appreciate my singularity, I learned to accept that I'm not going to please to everyone and that's okay. I learned to stop focusing on my bad experiences and remind myself that I had some good ones too. Every day I'm learning more about my self and I'm not going to lie to you, somedays I'm still being depressed about all this stuff, but it no longer takes all my time and mind.
Loved this video. So honest and real. You said everything that every woman is thinking and has gone through. Thank you! Please keep them coming!
Thanks for addressing this sensitive issue and for sharing your feelings and story.
For me, I don't feel confident in 'me' at all, even if I hear compliments I don't really listen, but on the other hand take all rubbish seriously
Still Trying to love 'me'...
I completely relate to you in the sense that we think the same. I struggled with the idea of beauty and where I fit into the standards from a very young age, and it wasn't until I graduated from high school and removed all of the toxic people in my life, that I started my journey towards self-love. Education is such an important part of my life and I totally agree with your point that our personality and knowledge stays with us throughout our lives, and youth and beauty are only temporary. I feel like I could go on forever, but I just wanted to say that I really loved this video and love hearing your thoughts on given aspects of life. I really like these kinds of videos, you speak very eloquently. Have a great day!xx
Not even two minutes in and I'm crying. Just that you thought you were ugly. And then foods was your comfort. I feel you. And your friends always only saying your eyes are beautiful but nothing else. People used to always only say I had pretty hair and face but clearly my body was ugly. Fat.
Can so relate. And I don't know you, though I've seen all your videos, but I am still so proud of you. Not just for losing your weight. But for saying these things. You don't have to and still you do. You are very strong!
Wish I could give you a hug. Wish I could have known you back when we were both bigger. Then we would have had each other. :) but you did it anyway. So did I. It's beautiful that you loved yourself enough to take care of yourself instead of staying in a depressing state of mind etc.
you're a true fighter.
I loved this so so so much. I loved how sincere you were and how it really felt like you were talking directly to me. Thank you for making this.
You're so lovely! I also think all the things you said, and i keep dealing with really low self-esteem. Back in the year i really hated myself, my face, my dark hair and my pale skin. The only thing i liked about myself was my body, cause i was really thin. Now i love my face, i really like to put on my make up and it really helped me to feel prettier. The ironic thing is that now i don't like my body, i became more inactive, and my depression issue is really more clear. I always think i don't deserve other people love. So i seek it and avoid that at the same time. It's really hurtful and i agree with you: the only thing that make you feel really beautiful is loving yourself and caring for yourself. I think it's the hardest thing in life, so i hope one day i'll be able.
Thank you for the video! :)
Diana, I have followed you for a long while, and the reasons were so many more than the beauty that you exude. You have a calm about you, an inner light that is so bright. You are truly beautiful inside AND out.
u don't know how much this video inspired me. I've always been very self conscious of myself especially out of middle school and just watching this video made me feel at peace with my beauty for once. ilysm thank you😘
I'm literally crying right now :( You're the most amazing person I've got to know and listen to. Thank you very much I really appreciate your being, personality and 'beauty'. Your whole existence is undescribable! And I do not accept that there are people who don't like your talking! Thank you, thank you... I love you
💙
This is so beautiful. You are so beautiful inside and out and I would have never thought you ever doubted your beauty. Every word you said resonated with me because I experienced the exact same thing a year ago and I thought I was alone. Thank you for making this!! It will impact so many people!!
thank you for your words😙😙
I don't comment on RUclips videos often but I truly believe you are truly one of the most beautiful people in this world. Not only are you absolutely stunning on the outside, but unlike many other gorgeous girls online there is a beautiful soul underneath who has been through the same body struggles as anyone else. You're truly an inspiration to me and hopefully to many younger people watching your videos and I can only hope to find your level of peace and serenity and self love in my life. Thank you so much for being who you are Diana. Xx
you are a beautiful soul, i love your makeup tutorials and your story inspires me. you speak so calmly and you sound so peaceful and it makes me feel good to see someone be able to see so clearly about some hardships that were so cloudy and dark at one point. thank you for sharing this ❤️
I can identify so much with this! about 2-3 years ago I was very depressed so I like you tended to eat a lot, it made me forget the problems. People would tell me, but it just hurt to be told I didn't want to face the problems. Nowadays I have realized and come to terms with my problems I still don't exercise, but I've definitely gone down in weight just because i started eating normally. I think it's really about coming to terms with yourself and trying to understand what is actually happening that helps you. Beautiful video Diana!
Such a beautiful person with a beautiful message. You have such a kind soul! And more people should hear this.
You are very beautiful.I am from Azerbaijan
😙😙
Thank you for sharing this, Diana. It certainly has helped me and I'm very glad we have people like you on RUclips. Please do more videos like this, your wisdom is so beneficial to us all :)
This is so appreciated, thank you so much for this video.
i agree with you a 1000%, iv been dealing with self love for so long that iv only realized in the last few days what you are saying now, how true self love, true beauty comes from your inner self.
Embrace your flaws, your insecurities, love what you love everyday and do what makes you happy!
thank you for posting this, such a important video, wished every youtube brought more awareness to this subject.
love ur accent and u
I normally don't care for this type of videos but this one really got to me. You're confident, yet self-aware and with your feet on the ground and that is very, very rare. This was really inspiring, thank you so much for making it xx
thank you for commenting😙
Your looks are what people around me love ! , dark silky hair , fair skin and a little bit more on the heavy said .
It's so interesting to see the different perspectives in each and every place
It makes me so happy to see a beauty guru who is also a real person and not just a pretty mask
Thank you so much Diana, you're always source of inspiration, and especially now that i'm trying to be a "better version of me" you're really helping me :)
Its probably impossible to think that we are look perfect because the green is always greener on the other side, so I always believe that we should be just embrace our flaws and improve on it rather than trying to change it. Our face and body are ONLY thing that we got till the day we die. We can't wake up one day looking like Angelina Jolie, that's impossible, so why even think about looking like someone else?
Never try to be like someone, but try to improve who you already are. Be it mentality or physically. If it is something that you can't change, well then just fuck it and learn to rock it.
You are incredible! I could listen to you talk for hours . Thank you for this video 💜
This video is so important. Truly intelligent and inspiring!
😙
+easyNeon can you have my babies
I love the way you speak so freely and what you have to say about the topic of self-love and your opinion on all things beauty, like one thing I always think about is how you said people should focus more on contouring/highlighting the inside and not just the outside. Anyway, such a fan of your videos!! Sending lots of love from the US xx. ❤️
thank you💙
You are an incredibly beautiful person, both inside and out. It is amazing to me that people only ever saw your weight and completely disregarded how stunning you are - both in your physical qualities and your personality. Whenever I watch your videos I think 'gosh, I'll never be as pretty as her' but from your words I realise that physical beauty is subject to opinion and more importantly to personality. And it only goes so deep. If you're lovely within, you'll be lovely without too. Thank you for teaching me x
From the first time i saw Diana's video, i thought she's soo pretty, talented ...you re so kind, polite , modest ...you are a special beauty youtuber. You re not showy and you dont have that sense " i am the only one girl in this world" . You give me a motivation with this video to start love, trust and work for myself! I LOVE YOU DIANA! You re my favourite❤
When I think of the word "beautiful'' you came in my mind. You have an angel , a precious soul. God bless your heart always.
You empower so many of us, it's amazing that you use this platform to bring awareness on this delicate topic. Thank you bae 👏
I am brazilian and I watch you today for the first time and you are one of the most beautiful woman I ever seen, I loved your makeups tutorials, you are so talented and with and without makeup you look amazing!! The standart of society goes to screw up a lot of people that have potencial, doesn't care about it!
We've all heard the saying, ' Beauty is in the eye of the beholder ', and it is true. You said something profound, about the difference between inner and outer beauty. Going by your story, you made a wonderful transformation in confidence and the beauty within as well as on the outward appearance. Your story is inspiring to many who are struggling and need encouragement. btw, I like your accent when you speak.
This is a much needed video... thank you, Diana. I think we all struggle with self-love and acceptance everyday, there are days when we feel okay, and other times all we see are our flaws and try to be somebody else that we might look up to to fill that void. This was encouraging and inspiring to watch. Much love from Brunei xx
💙
you're truly such a beautiful human on the outside and insidd 💕 beauty is has no definition. don't be blinded negatively by other people on the internet who portray a certain image (they can control what they release to you and what they don't want to share)
Well you've definitely helped me! I think you're very inspirational ❤️ these days it's hard to find someone who speaks sense & isn't sucked into believing you should be like everyone else. I hope to gain even half of the maturity you have! Lots of love x
I was so surprised seeing this video, because when I first saw your videos, the first thing that thought was "Oh my God, she is so beautiful." like real goals. I love it. Thank you
I've been subscribed to you for a while now and I haven't watched RUclips videos in a while as well so I haven't seen some of your videos but I just wanted to say thank you for this. I'm glad that I watched this video today because it has given me more motivation to become more healthy. I was on track to keep loosing weight last year but gave up because it was exhausting and I didn't have motivation. But now I want to drop all those kg that I have gained since last year and more to be more healthy. I know that is a hard long process but because of your video and my wanting of self love and just to be healthy I will push through this. Thank you so much. You have such a beautiful soul. Thank you. ❤️
I cannot remember how I found your channel a couple months ago, but I am so glad I did. You are so so wonderful.
I'm really proud of you for making this video. You help a lot of young girls with this, including me. I was always very jealous of your beauty (I know, very superficial, but hey, I'm human too) but today you've showed me your inner beauty. I'm not jealous of you anymore. I look up to you! It probably must have taken a lot of courage to post a personal video like this. I know you're a strong girl and even know I don't know you, I'm very proud of you
I feel like you're a big influence to me. Every time you talk about you, I feel identified some how. And, for some reason, I've been feeling quite down, depressed and feeling bad about how I look. I was asking my self if I was beautiful. And then, you make this video and I feel like you were talking to me, like giving me advice and now feel so much better. I don't know how to explain it.
then i am very happy that i filmed this💙
You are so beautiful! I had the exact same problems as you did and just recently did I start seeing myself as I really am and started thinking that I'm beautiful like all my thin friends! I still have bad days but I'm working on it! I realised that I need to work on my self for me and not to be accepted by others!!! thank you for this video! You're amazing! I love you!
This is the first time that I have came across one of your videos, but I can list hundreds of things that makes you beautiful. but in the end of the day what I think or anyone else thinks doesn't matter what really matters is what YOU THINK. I just wanted to say I'm proud of you that you spoke about this out loud , I know it takes alot of courage to do what you've done.💓💓💓💓💓
