Mandy Moore, new spokesperson of Dove's 'Women Who Should Be Famous' campaign, sits down for a chat with Glamour magazine and talks about body insecurities, her go-to beauty look and favorite beauty products.
Mandy Moore is Dove's 'Women Who Should Be Famous' campaign
spokesperson, a project that shows special women who are role
models and really make a difference. Glamour magazine got the
chance to chat with the 28-year-old actress about what inspired her
to join the Dove's Self-Esteem Movement.
"I've always loved Dove’s focus on real women and really share in
their spirit and commitment to inspiring all women and girls to
reach their full potential. Dove believes that all real women who
are positive role models should be famous and I'm proud to be a
part of movement that offers a different POV on 'celebrity' by
widening the definition of who we consider famous," Mandy
explains.
The young starlet confesses in her interview with the magazine that
she wasn't always confident regarding her body.
"Growing up, I definitely had insecurities about my height — I'm
5'10. I went through a big growth spurt and for a period of time,
was taller than a lot of my friends. I used to hunch over and
complain to my parents about sticking out or feeling awkward in my
body. My mom, who is about 8 inches shorter than me, never failed
to mention how envious she was of my height and that it was a
beautiful quality. She reminded me to embrace what I was given and
stand tall with my shoulders back... I guess the grass is always
greener," Moore confesses.
Being a celebrity means to indirectly inspire other women
especially when it comes to their own outer appearance. Speaking to
Glamour, Mandy Moore gives a piece of advice to women in order to
boost self-confidence.
"Everyone, everywhere, no matter who you are or what you do with
your life, has days where they feel insecure about one thing or
another when it comes to our physical appearance. I try to remember
that I'm not an anomaly, I'm only human and not to beat myself up
for feeling down. Trying to highlight the positive aspects that you
LOVE about yourself is always the healthier way to go. Why waste
any of your energy on negative, if you can help it?" she says.
On the beauty products she won't leave home without putting on
first, Moore reveals that, "I've only recently (oops) become very
diligent about sunscreen so now that is a MUST-HAVE." The actress
also shares the product that makes her feel more confident. "A dab
of blush or color on my cheeks seems to wake my whole face up."
We must admit that Mandy Moore always looks impeccable whether she
glams up the red carpet or she is photographed doing errands. Her
go-to beauty secret? "I'm pretty simple and also not really
'gifted' at applying makeup, so a little concealer under my eyes,
some rosy blush, a creamy eye shadow in a shimmery taupe, mascara
and a lip-stain.... Oh and definitely a tiny bit of powder to fill
in my brows. In my makeup bag is organic rosewater to mist on my
face before and after so I look/feel fresh, and an eyelash curler.
I love mine," Moore says.
The lovely actress also admits that, "I LOVE fragrance so I'm never
afraid to splurge on a quality perfume or oil. I also equally love
drugstore brands like Aquaphor. I can NOT get enough of that stuff.
I have little tubes of it in every purse, in my car, etc..."
