Being flawsome is all about realizing your flaws are what make you awesome and unique! Let’s be REAL, owning your flawsomeness takes time. Watch hosts share how they’ve learned to embrace their insecurities and love the skin they’re in.
One of my flaws is actually the opposite of Tamar. I'm soo quiet and it's not even like I purposely do it. I just have nothing to say and so when I do have to talk especially in a social setting it's just weird. And the sound of my voice when I hear it on a video, recording or whatever I just don't like but God's working on me lol
Danielle A. omg same here. like everyone referred to me as the quiet one. like I'm not antisocial, i get along with everyone I'm not scared to talk to people, I'm not shy i just don't really have nothing to say. I'm even quiet AMONG my friends, because i just have nothing to say sometimes. like people call me quiet till they get to know me.
Tamar's loudness makes me like her actually, that's what draws me in ♥. I think it's because I'm completely opposite. She's like the secret part of you that will say what you wont!
Thank GOD He saved me. I used to hate myself, being small, skinny, big eyes. I even wore baggy clothes JUST to hide them. But after getting so close to God, I've grown up so confident. I love my skinny legs!
I like Adrienne's natural beat today. It's pretty! I used to hate my lips, they are full and I was so self conscious about them but now I love em! Also I don't have to stick my mouth in a glass to get em lol
Dang i was looking at a picture of tamera wearing above the knee skirt and i remember admiring her legs and knees! So crazy how one person can percieve flaws and another sees pure beauty
Jermaine Jackson Thats incredibly true! One of the main things I found attractive about Rihanna (random I know) was her legs. I loved how thick and toned they were. I just thought she had the "perfect" hip, thigh, and calf ratio. At one point it was even suggested that she get them insured because they were considered that attractive. But then I ended up hearing her say that one thing she was always insecure about was how "fat" she thought her legs were and how much she always wanted them to be thinner. I was shocked when I heard that because I just remembered thinking how sexy I thought they were and she is thinking the exact opposite. So yeah, its definitely crazy how differently people perceive the same things.
Realising that God created me and that I am truly fearfully and wonderfully made has really helped me. I can really see myself through His eyes and not the world's
Realising that God loves me (like really loves me) is my source of confidence, the fact that someone that amazing could think of little old me, it floors me every time, it makes me feel so beautiful and like I can do anything, I don't need people's stamp of approval, I have His and that's enough :)
C Fas How did you get to that point? I'm almost there but I keep getting in my own way with comparing myself with other women(like family members) and wondering why I don't look like them and we are in the same family.
Kim Johnson Aaahh. I understand what you're going through. I struggled more with my body shape... Getting into the word of God has really helped me. Not just pulling out verses as an antidote, but reading it daily so that I could really understand my heavenly father and understand how He sees me. When we think like the world we get tempted to see ourselves through the world's eyes, but God doesn't see us that way at all. He sees His beautiful creation and he's concerned about your heart and your mind. You're precious to Him. Here are two verses, which relate to that: Psalm 139:14 (KJV) 14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. or 1 Peter 3:3-4 (KJV) 3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; 4 But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.
Every time Loni talks about a "flaw" of hers she quickly tries to give a positive message so she wont say too much or go to deep...This is the real boo.. Spill your tea as well.
Jeannie and Adrienne look especially beautiful today, I just love what Jeannie is wearing and Adrienne is so beautiful with this laid back look. It's so important to love who you are, let people say whatever they want to say, people will only have as much power over you as you are willing to give them. You don't need to bow to anyone's standards of beauty.
Ash eevvverryyyy body has stretch marks. yes, not just even women. some have less than others or some skin tones make it harder to see. but most people have stretch marks so don't even consider that a "flaw" lol.
I get wat Tamar saying cuz my voice carries...my teachers used to always say something but I couldn't help it. I find myself consciously talking quiet so i wont sound so loud
912nelle I once made a comment in a discussion at church and was asked if I swallowed a microphone. I've since learnt to control it when necessary but still loud as hell in my day to day life!
Man. I annoyed my Kindergarten teacher so bad with talking so much that one time she picked up my chair and turned it around to face her... With me still in it! Lol I embraced me being talkative a long time ago and I hope to make a career out of it! Embrace everything ladies ;)
I feel you Tamera on the hyper pigmentation and Loni on the body image. My weight fluctuates often enough that I start having insecurities about my size which affects my confidence. It's a daily struggle!
Love how Adrienne rocked the relax outfit and especially no makeup. That inner beauty shines so bright. Definitely would be cool for them to do natural look one episode.
I understand what tamar is saying, everybody is always telling to talk softer, I think it happens if you grew up in a big family, you always trying to get heard.
MissRimaKagé That was it. Adrienne went on to say that she's been told the same thing, too and it just moved into a redundant conversation about people saying they're all so loud on the show.
sizzleyou My feet, elbows, knees and hands are maybe five shades darker than the rest of my body. I'm really concious of it and it doesn't help that some people ask me if I forgot to bleach them. -_-
You can lighten them naturally if you want it to match the rest of your body. You can use baking soda combined with milk on your knees and elbows. I'd say give it a month and you'll see results!
I can relate to Loni...I was always a big girl even through my school years which made me look older than all my other classmates, but as an adult now, I have definitely learned to embrace it and I'm 1000% more confident and yes I strut my stuff too 😅...that's how my man noticed me and he always says how sexy and beautiful I am! Yassssss🙌🙌🙌💏 #OwnYourFlawsTheyAreBeautiful
Real Comment Section Confession: My biggest flaw is probably my skin, I feel Jeannie on this, scars and pigmentation that wont go away some I was born with. It's hard because I never really cared as a child, but once I got older it became the focus point. I try my best to just live life and forget about what others think, especially when they don't even know me. #RealCommentSectionConfession
Dominique Benton I am THE SAME. Especially at work, when I say hi to people, they don't hear me so I feel like they've ignored me. LOL. Gotta speak up!
Mine is the opposite of Tamar's. People say that I don't talk loud enough, that I "mumble" (I find that to be an exaggeration though). Having gone through puberty, my voice has become deep and somewhat husky, so I really don't have the range to be so loud. It's not that I can't talk loudly, but it doesn't come with ease, so I refrain from doing so.
My flaws is my eyes being that they are 2 different color ... I'm still dealing with it but I'm coming more into loving myself. It's hard living in this society when people judge you by your looks and think you get everything handed on a silver plater when in reality I have to work twice as hard. I tell myself I'm beautiful everyday ... Still struggling with it though
great segment about accepting what you (already) have and making it work for yourself, regardless of what the playround peers stay to/about your physical appearance or voice level.
I have more flaws than I can count and I'm still trying to change them. Even the flaws that people don't care about but I notice EVERYDAY. most of them have to do with appearance because it's the ones that I can see. Point is, seeing this makes me want to embrace them and own them so THANK YOU The Real and THANK YOU GOD for making me the way I am.
No one is perfect, each of us has our own flaws but we always keep in mind that we have to love and accept our self and be thankful for everything that God's give us.
Great video ladies :) I think a lot of the time we are our own worst enemies because we often give ourselves such a hard time and give ourselves insecurities. Growing up I always hated being tall, my mother and sister are 5'2" and I'm 5'7", so I was always the tallest girl in my family and one of the tallest girls in my class at school. The issue with being quite tall for me was that in my teens and early 20s I was shy and introverted and when your taller than a lot of the people around you get noticed more. Also I think women need to be more kind to each other because something that I experienced in school was that guys would always compliment me on my height but I had lots of bitchiness from girls ... and I think that happens a lot in society. As you get older though you become more confident and you learn to let go of things that made you insecure in the past. Now I'm 30 years old I actually love being tall. Everyone is fine just the way they are and when you have people in your life that make you feel good about yourself that's everything 😊😊😊
I love this segment. I'm really blessed and happy that God has slowly shown me the good in my flaws and the reason I look the way I do. Growing up I HATED my stomach, my arms, I always had big shoulders. I also had insecurities with my smile and chin. It's amazing looking back at old photos and realizing how INSANE I was to thinking I was chunky and comparing myself to my friends. I was actually very thin too which is the weird part lol. But I was also extremely depressed from a young age and I guess that presented itself on my outer appearance too, which made me feel even uglier. I was a mess back then lol. but God was faithful to me then and He's continued His faithfulness and carried me out of that dark place for good. So long story short. ladies, God designed you the way He did for a purpose. No one on earth is ever gonna look EXACTLY like you and that is okay! What God did was He healed and restored the depression that I had and everything else in my that was ugly, and once that left I began see better in myself as well as when I looked in the mirror. Your body is going to keep changing and developing for a while and you will soon see how precious and beautiful you are because they're is no one like you.
I really hate that i'm loud, people always tell me to be quiet but i can't help it. My voice is just loud, and it gets even louder when i'm excited. UGHH
Omg, the ladies with less makeup look just GORGEOUS! Now that's real (.... almost) 🙌🏻👌🏽 But with/without makeup, big love and respect to all you ladies 😘
I'm insecure about my dimples because in the 1st grade some kid said "eww you have holes in your cheeks." Even though it sounds ridiculous now I'm still learning to love them ahahaha
MissEthiopia I LOVE dimples I've wanted dimples my entire life their just so cute ugh I would die to have dimples I hope you learn to love them and can I just say you look so beautiful from your profile picture I hope that's not creepy or anything but I would love to look like you
I love dimples as well, I can tell you are a beautiful woman, don't let something that someone said MANY years ago get to you. To me dimples are a blessing and I would LOVE to have them😊❤
I feel Tamar... When I'm in class, I talk to really loud and I can't control it. in my head I'm not that loud... I'm still trying to cope with people saying "gurl you are way too loud, calm down", it makes me feel 'less than'. I'm not gonna change but I'm improving myself. ❤ yourself. - H xxxx
Tamar and Loni are hilarious and Tamera is beautiful. I love when Jeanie imitates her Mom and she has pretty skin. Adrienne is so tiny and cute. Loved watching the Cheetah girl movies with my daughter.
Tamar, that was hilarious! I actually busted out laughing! And Jeannie is speaking my life with the whole scars and legs thing. I'm super tall so my legs look extremely skinny even though they're not.. I never wear shorts because of this.. It's a working progress..
I have a big forehead as well, but I've accepted it and now I think it looks great! There are so many celebrities with big foreheads too, like Rihanna and I think it makes her look even more beautiful and exotic. Embrace your big forehead!!!
Maria Morales Durán if that's you in your profile pic, then I wish my forehead was your type of big because mine is just big in all regards. People always say that Rihanna has a big forehead, but maybe because I compare her to myself, I just don't think it is big. Hers just sticks out, it isn't actually big imo.
I was loud too, now people say I should talk louder but when I was young I got so much critic for being loud that I am super aware of the tone of my voice
I am like Tamar, I've always talked super loud, and I'm always told I need to speak in a lower tone and quieter- I hate my voice I hate that I'm loud and I hate how high pitched it is. Also, my legs are really skinny too but yeah, I'm starting to embrace my body more. ANd I realized- I am the only one who actually cares that I have a high pitched voice. No one else has ever made fun of me or seemed to care.
really loved this segment I'm glad to am not the only one with flaws :) we notice things that others don't about us :( i hope we all embrace especially us women
I have so many flaws , and I did embrace them.. my negative is my positive and it does not even bother me as much ;when beautiful women also are as delusional as I am ... we are all beautiful.. you are beautiful..
The comments here always give me such life. Sometimes i feel like we all a lil "Real" family because how i relate to your comments. They are very refreshing. not rude. Like everyone is building someones confidence. im just happy. God bless you (Numbers 6:23-26)
omg!!!! idk if Tamar is serious or not but that is my biggest flaw. im loud. and trust me ive tried almost everything but if you get me in a situation (happy or angry) i get loud. never was a quiet shy girl. i loved excitment and was always voicing my opinion. still trying to cope with it but hey my flaw made me step leader at school, birthday chant girl at my job, and unapologeticly me. lol
i think it's funny how tamera always talk about the obvious things like that she's a mom, that she has a twin, that she is mixed 😂😂 tamera we know these things
adrienne is the only one that followed all the way through with flawsome friday jeannie a little but everyone else got on weave/wigs they got on all the makeup
omd i completely understand Tamar, I'm always being told that I talk too loudly but I've come to the point now that I dont really care. If someone wants to be in the same room as me and wants me to quieten down maybe they should speak up.
I'm feel like everyone is just dismissing what Tamar said and it makes me upset. I mean sure they have more insecurities but they can't talk about them all on the same day. What are the going to talk about next time?! But talking loud is an insecurity flaw. She made it into a joke but it really might be something she's insecure about. I was the same way! My voice naturally carries and its not delicate or the most feminine so people were always like stop you're too loud!, "stop yelling" "so and so can hear you" but I didn't realize I was being that loud. Now I'm constantly wondering if people are thinking "that girl is so loud, she needs to shut up" to the point where for a long time I didn't say much and if I did people were constantly telling me to speak up because I talk too softly and the can't hear me. I'm still trying to find a balance because my voice is a bit different.
OH MY GOD..... THANKS SO MUCH FOR THIS SHOW. MY FLAWS IS MY TEETH AND ANYTIME I LOOK IN THE MIRROR I BECOME UPSET COS I HAVE OVERLAPPING TEETH BUT ANDRIENNE JUST MADE IT CLEAR TO ME THAT MY FLAWS MAKES ME UNIQUE.
