Selena Gomez has addressed the pressures of unrealistic beauty standards at the Time100 Summit in New York City.
While discussing about the impact of her cosmetics line, Rare Beauty, the Only Murders in the Building actress said that she felt that there’s a very unrealistic standard when it comes to the cosmetic world and it makes her a little sad for her generation.
“And for anyone to look at something that’s probably touched up and made to look nice is… I just wanted to break that down,” said the 31-year-old. The Monte Carlo actress added, “I don’t know how to do makeup and I have a makeup line.”
Reflecting on her beauty goal with Rare Beauty products, Gomez stated, “I wanted it to feel good when they’re using my products.” Gomez mentioned, “So, I genuinely just wanted to make makeup that was fun for people.”
“I don’t believe in having to look a certain way. I spent years trying to do that and it’s draining. Waste of time,” she further said.
