10 Girls Who Turned Their Flaws Into Strengths

Beauty, as you know, is a very relative concept. And while someone struggles with unruly hair and problematic skin, others are forced to put up with very unusual flaws, turning them into their features. It is about such girls that will be discussed in this collection ...

10 PHOTOS

1. Sierra Swaringen

A young girl suffers from a rare skin disease that leaves many moles and dark freckles all over her skin. As a child, Sierra often had to endure ridicule from classmates and bullying by her peers, but now the girl has finally managed to turn her flaw into a highlight. Sierra actively publishes photos on social networks, collecting thousands of comments about her appearance and learning to accept herself for who she is.

3. Paige Balliot

This girl was born not like everyone else. On her face, is a huge pink birthmark flaunts, which attracts the attention of others and makes Paige a truly unique person. By the age of 23, Page had achieved what many aspire to throughout their lives. She became a successful actress and director, as well as a model. Photos of the girl are actively published even without retouching, revealing the peculiarity of her face and, again, turning her flaw into a real dignity.

3. Winnie Harlow

This girl suffers from an unusual pathology called vitiligo, in which there is a violation of the pigmentation of skin cells. This disease does not pose any danger either to the health of Winnie herself or to the people around her. Of course, the girl could withdraw into herself and pass off her patchy skin as the most terrible flaw, but instead, Winnie became one of the most sought-after top models in the world!

4. Diandra Forrest

The appearance of this girl combines incongruously. Diandra is an African American albino. Plump lips, wide cheekbones, and large eyes go against the light, almost bleached skin of the girl. Despite such a "defect", the girl actively starred in Beyoncé's videos and signed contracts with leading modeling agencies in Paris and New York.

5. Yasmine Mebar

At the age of 14, Yasmin developed a disease called "skin lichen". This is a fungal infection that has covered the girl's skin with white spots. As a child, Yasmin was very embarrassed about her defect and faced ridicule and tactless questions. Until the age of 24, the girl fought in every possible way and tried to mask her illness, but one day she heard a small child exclaim loudly: “Mommy, look, aunt has a card on her back!”. At that moment, the girl realized that she needed to start accepting herself and her appearance even with such features, and now Yasnim is actively working on a positive perception of herself and her shortcomings.

6. Alison Harvard

It is hard to believe that big eyes can be considered a disadvantage for some, but they can definitely be a feature. Alison's bottomless saucer eyes can sometimes seem too big for the average person. The cute anime appearance of the girl stands by and gets along with unusual inclinations, such as a love for hemophilia and bloody noses. Despite the wild mixture of shortcomings, the girl was able to take second place in the famous show "America's Next Top Model" and is now trying herself as a movie actress.

7. Joel van Schaik

On the body of this young girl, there is a scar about 20 cm long on her chest. When Joelle was only about a couple of months old, she underwent major heart surgery due to a birth defect. When she was about 9 years old, the valve in her heart was replaced with an artificial one and this was the second operation. The girl cannot live in the usual rhythm of a healthy person and needs frequent rest, but this did not stop her from living the way she would like, meeting many amazing people, and discovering more and more new boundaries for herself.

8. Harley Debbs

At the age of two, the baby barely managed to survive after the fire and now her body is covered with many burn scars. Because of these defects, Harley was often laughed at by her peers, which caused her to fall into a deep depression. Once the girl managed to realize that she survived despite the disappointing forecasts of doctors and simply has no right to complain about life. Now Harley is an example of positivity and cheerfulness for everyone, and her smiling photos on Instagram are gaining thousands of likes and attracting the attention of stars!

9. Cassandra Naud

From birth, Cassandra has a large black mole under her right eye, resembling a mask. As a child, doctors suggested that Cassandra's parents perform an operation to remove it, but they did not dare, fearing for their daughter's health. Having endured all sorts of bullying and ridicule from her peers, the girl became a professional dancer and considers her feature to be a bright, unique advantage rather than a disadvantage.

10. Melanie Gaidos

The model pictured is 27 years old and suffers from a rare genetic disorder called ectodermal dysplasia. Melanie suffers from a severe form of this disease, which has affected the development of her hair, nails, and even bones. The girl managed to bypass the generally accepted standards of beauty and become famous and wealthy. In addition, those who were not scared away by Melanie's ambiguous appearance confidently declare her good nature to energy.
