Pauline gladly accepts the white beauty standard through the lifestyle, beauty images, behavior, and education which she practices, imitates, and adjusts from her surroundings.

The negative self-concept then leads her to having a low self-esteem, as proven by the distorted ways of thinking she practices such as overgeneralization, global labeling, filtering, polarized thinking, self-blame, personalization, control fallacies, and emotional reasoning. Keywords: ideal beauty image, self-description, self-concept, distorted thinking, lifestyle, education
