Beauty & Style tips from Marie Claire - Ep6 French Beauty

[Ashrai07]

Stereotypically, "french"style is elegant and sophistocated. They own their sexiness in a natural, mysterious, effortless way. Its subtle, not the focus. "American" is fun, frivilous, and unabashed. Its gaudy, competitive. They sell their sexiness or use it as a main attraction for attention to their person. Not much of a focus on her person as on the package.

So with the French: Ooo la la, that lady is beautiful.

and then American: I'm taking that home tonight. (didn't see the face at all)

I just happened to come across your youtube page and thought I would drop a line.

I love the look of having a complete nude face, with tiny bit of mascara and red lipstick.

I wish some American women would stop putting themselves down. This is a big country and every region has a different style. I have traveled to the northeast, west coast, and the south and the women in each area have a style of their own that is unique and beautiful. Love you for you because all women that are healthy are beautiful no matter where they are from.
