health
Draw a conclusion
Jade is too obsessed with selfie apps, editing and posting selfies for hours every day, which shows that she craves others’ attention to make up for her lack of confidence towards her look.
Although Anthony used to not care about his appearance, his attitude changed after a makeover experience. He realized that there is value in making an effort with the way you present yourself.
Emma had always been ashamed of being larger than other girls, until she came to realize that mental and physical health is more beautiful and important than being skinny and unhealthy, and that confidence itself is attractive.
