I don’t usually post on here but I just saw Fleur’s new video and I am SO disappointed. I actually have a nose that is pretty much identical to Fleur’s and I have some small insecurities about it, but knowing that (in my opinion) Fleur still looked pretty and confident with her nose, made me feel much better about mine. I actually burst into tears when I saw the thumbnail as I was so shocked and it really touched a nerve I didn’t realise was so raw. I really wish influencers would promote being comfortable in your own skin, without needles or scalpels. I know it is her own choice, but I wish we would celebrate our differences more. Not every nose has to be perfectly straight, not every smile needs to be the same bright white perfectly aligned one and not every figure needs to have the same perfect curves. There is beauty in imperfection, but having influencers constantly push all their tweaks and nips and tucks makes it really hard for their audience to not start to question their own image too.
A few years ago, after Lydia Millen had her nose done, I seriously researched the procedure for myself. I then gradually built my confidence back and didn’t really think about it often, especially as I’m not a huge fan of Lydia’s image so didn’t really feel like her appearance was reflective of what I wanted for myself. However I am a long time watcher of Fleur (must be nearly 10 years) and always felt aligned to her as we have fairly similar backgrounds and I would say even look very alike so this feels very different for me.
Sorry this has been a bit of a ramble and might be hormonal as I am 6 weeks pregnant. Anyway I’d be keen to hear everyone else’s thoughts on her decision to change her nose.
