Let’s join the discussion with #WeAreBeautiful

And don’t forget: YOU are more beautiful than you think!

Women can be very critical when they are asked to rate their own beauty. In fact, there are only 4% of women in the world who consider themselves beautiful. Dove is committed to creating a world where beauty is the source of self-confidence. Therefore, we [Dove] decided to make an experiment to find out what women think about their own beauty and compare it with other people’s perspectives.
