Beauty is not measured by how well you can paint a mask onto your vulnerable naked face.
It's not the price tag on your clothes,
or even how many whistles you get in a day.

Beauty is measured by
perseverance,
courage,
and kindness.

Once a girl has mastered all three she will no longer need her paint.
