             There are several ways to define beauty. Some people demand nice appearance that interests people is beauty while some people demand that inner beauty is a true beauty. I personally think both of them have to be fulfilled in order to become a perfectly beautiful person. Even if a person is really beautiful and pretty with outer appearance, and has bad personalities and lack of common sense, that person cannot be said as a perfectly beautiful person.

             It would be depend on how other people think, but beauty of appearance is quite easy to measure. Beautiful appearance is a balanced appearance. What balanced appearance means is that a person has to have balance on his/her face, body or overall proportion. When the appearance is balanced, the other people feel comfortable with that person and get interests about the person. The beauty of outer appearance’s function is to attract people first because people get interests of pretty, handsome faces.

             However, that kind of attraction does not last long unless that person’s inner side is also beautiful. People love handsome or pretty people at first, but as time pasts, they see inner side like personalities or mind, and if his/her inner side is very bad, people would not like that person and do not think of that person as a beautiful person. Thus, Beauty does not only mean pretty or handsome, but competent mind and nice personalities, also.

             People who want to be beautiful have to know that they also have to make their inner side beautiful, not only the appearances. Recently, people are spending more money for plastic surgery just in order to make themselves prettier or more handsome. However, if they really want to be truly beautiful, they have to spend more time to improve their inner beauty because most of them do not have improved their inner beauty while they tried so hard to make their body shape perfect or to make their skin cleaner.

             It might be hard to improve the inner beauty. However, without beautiful inner side, a person can never be truly beautiful. Inner beauty is actually more important than appearance because ugly inner side will eventually make appearance ugly. Thus, definition of beauty does not only deal with the outer appearance, but inner side also.
